I’m hoping this is an ok community to post this in…

I’m looking for a surge protector with battery back up for my computer. I’ve looked up a few on Amazon but some of the reviews have left me leery. There’s so much junk on Amazon I’m hoping that someone here might be able to recommend one they’ve used.

TIA!

    I second APC. I’ve had a Back-UPS 700 for over a decade on my computer with only a single battery change last year. Wife replaced her unit instead of just the battery. Smaller unit, but newer so it has USBs for her to charge with.

    Neither of us use the software that came with it. My computer isn’t running when I’m not at it, hers runs 24/7. They do come in handy when the power is out as you can squeeze the battery for a phone charge.
