Pros

The first one is in the white case, and has been functioning for me flawlessly for 6 years. Very pleasantly surprised. I feel like it definitively would do this.

The apc protects expensive electronics from voltage spikes and sags. I'm smoothing out the current from a gas/ propane, 6,600w, 120v generator. I believe that it protects electronics form line fluctuations that can short the life of electronics.

I purchased this thing sept of 2013 for $131 and use my expensive home theater equipment on it.


They are expensive but well worth the cost if you live in areas with unstable power and have expensive electronics.

Shipping


The hot day came, and we were able to run laundry all day with no problem.


Took a while to arrive like everything else these days.
