Surge Protection
Customers have expressed concerns about the lack of a standard UK plug for this surge protector/UPS, requiring additional purchases of adapters to use it in the UK. While some are satisfied with its surge protection capabilities, others find it disappointing that it does not come with a UK compliant plug.
Power Backup
Customers have mixed opinions regarding the power backup capabilities of this APC Easy UPS 1200VA. While some are pleased with its ability to keep their devices running during power outages and provide standby power, others have experienced issues such as excessive power consumption, humming noise, and premature failure.
Highlights
Quality
- apart from the alarms, which are mutable, quiet enough operation even when on battery.
- very easy to set up and use, once you have the right cables.
I originally bought this for the surge protection and enough battery runtime to shutdown my nas.
I had to cut it off and fit a uk plug as the unit’s input socket was not std iec.
Price
Quick delivery great price and works like a charm
- on the expensive side, but solid enough to excuse this mostly.
Competitiveness
I had to purchase iec 14 to uk standard 3-pin plug adapters to power my devices as none had iec 14 connectors.
