I am very happy with the product and the professional support available from the manufacturer, schneider electric.

Linked up very easily with my qnap nas

It will automatically trigger a graceful shutdown when the battery reaches the critical battery remaining level which by default is 5 however i increased this to 20 to ensure my server had enough time to complete shutdown and that is all without the need to install any additional software on your computer
