APC Gaming Back UPS Pro, 2200VA/1320W, Battery Backup & Surge Protector for Gaming PC and Consoles, 2x UK and 2x IEC C13 outlets, RGB Lights, Pure Sine Wave, Midnight (Black) BGM2200B-UK

The device arrived and was reasonably easy to setup using the guide to plug in the battery. My 1000w gaming PC plugged in easily. The unit shows how much draw its using so was happy that my PC, monitor and some external disks used under 200w at idle when on. The device would give around 30mins of battery cover. Naturally when stressed it could be a lot less, but the alarm when gaming gives me time to terminate the game. There is a configurable audible alarm on unit which can be switched off. Also the software provides audit logs and the ability to send email alerts for a number of event types. I live in the countryside and get almost daily power blips. Hopefully this will allow my PC to not keep crashing when this occurs. The unit comes with a PC connection cable (USB) and the software allows configuration of the settings such as when to perform a hibernation\shutdown at power off. (Default is 5 mins of no power which should cover most daily connection issues). (Software was quite hard to locate but found on the Schneider electric website if you look for powerchute software (Personal)) Its more expensive than what I wanted to pay for a UPS, however it appears well made, has replaceable batteries, is software controlled and covers my PC running a gaming rig running an RTX5080. No issues when I was stress testing my PC and with true sin wave support it should provide a healthy power supply. Had no issues with the UPS running noisy. (I cant hear it) and it stayed very cool.

10 out of 10. It is a must have at every household.

It's a good quality product which works really well. Compared to the APC BX1400UI I have used before it has much easier way to replace the batteries, so it's a better investment long-term. (And obviously it can provide more power) It's easy to setup and it has a good variety of sockets, including IEC C13, standard UK plug and both USB and USB-C It's absolutely silent The only downside is that it's pricey

I have my pc and two monitors plugged in and not a problem, its saved me a couple of times already. I mostly work from home on my pc through the day and so this gives me good reassurance. The lights i could do without personally, but perhaps that rear light may help on the odd occasion to see the back ports (i maybe missing an obvious option to turn it off)). The display doesn't stay on all the time which is good (it times out but comes back when you click the buttons - though a meter effect around the front facing display "dial" stays on, which is good). The data feed to my OS reports that its on battery, when its not (tbf, this may be an issue in my OS/driver however, using CachyOS, kernel 6.17).

All arrived faulty and replaced. DO NOT BUY

With solar and wind being unpredictable I've noticed the grid being less stable. Brown outs can really mess up your equipment so a good UPS should be essential in the current economy. This UPS is more expensive than others but it's justified as it sits there very quietly and works nicely with Windows 11 with no fuss via the USB. When the power to the house failed the computer didn't fail and I let it sleep, after the power returned it started up again fine. I run a 5950X CPU and 4090 , a Samsung Odyssey G9 and watercooler stuff without UPS load problems. It's a good shape for the desk and fits behind my monitor. The only downsides are the controls are aa bit fiddly (you probably should download and RTFM) and I had a bit of a bother putting the battery cover back on after removing the transport immobilisers. Other UPSs have very noisy fans that stay on all the time and the battery state does not come across properly over USB, which is concerning if the Electricity supply fails. this one works.

I've upgraded my PC and needed a more powerful UPS. This product is the best I've found. It's a shame APC is no longer making them.

due to the power supply here, the AVR always on because the power voltage is around 246-250V, and it will need long time to auto off for the AVR. it's noisy while AVR on, but AVR is the function why we need this UPS. so need to put it away from a working place.
