Had this a couple of months now and is happily sitting alongside my computer going well ......... you can hear very quiet clicking noise at times as it adjusts the power from over and under the set limit for NZ standards ........ which it is what it is designed and built for. I find hearing the quiet clicking noise quite comforting as it tells me it is doing the job it is supposed to and at times it stops clicking and l notice it straight away , silly really but ......... although it just means the power level is stable. A great little unit and very happy with the performance of it, much better than the other smaller older unit l had ....view more Had this a couple of months now and is happily sitting alongside my computer going well ......... you can hear very quiet clicking noise at times as it adjusts the power from over and under the set limit for NZ standards ........ which it is what it is designed and built for.

A great little unit and very happy with the performance of it, much better than the other smaller older unit l had ......... i had a couple of queries for PBTECH and had a reply by email very quickly to answer my questions, definately a 5 star family business and product. Many thanks and l will be back for future purchases ( and questions)

I had to replace my old UPS when it started giving alerts. I chose APC UPS based on their previous reputation with UPS, racks and power supplies. The APC Easy UPS is very quiet, runs cold and, so far, is very reliable. When selecting a UPS, just be careful you select the one with the correct number and type of plug outlets. The Easy UPS range range uses C13 outlets. These require special cables. My only gripe with APC is the monitoring software. The CD that came with the unit required a lot of DotNet downloads, but in the end did not work with the Easy UPS model purchased. The APC website only has a generic app that barely works and...view more I had to replace my old UPS when it started giving alerts.

The APC website only has a generic app that barely works and needs permission to run. You need the app to monitor the UPS health and loading.

Supplied with a European power plug, and the "SmartSlot", which I bought this unit for - so I can monitor the UPS at a network cabinet with now PC - is not a "SmartSlot", but instead a special "Intelligent Slot" specifically for SMV models. Consequently the SmartSlot network card I also purchased does not fit.

It is a great product for sure, for sure ........ twice the height of my older unknown brand, same length and width though, and, as another buyer mentioned you can hear it quietly clicking away as it does it's job. I have it sitting on the top of my computer unit as there is no heat up on there as my computer has great cooling and the surface is cold to the touch, l had it up there since l bought it, ( 12 months ago ) the unit itself runs cool as it has massive ventilation on both sides, yeah, great stuff. I recommend PBtech for answering all my queries before and after purchase ...
