[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1911478, member: 307555"] I guess we could discuss this until the cows come home and only hope to reach a consensus at best. It all depends on our individual experiences and where we live. My experience says I have replaced more APC UPS units and their batteries yet, I have never had to do either for the CyberPower units of the same age. Also I live in an area where they pipe sunlight in and electricity is not considered a necessity but paying the bill is. We just put in a whole house generator at the end of 2021. Prior to that we had a portable that ran only essentials - like heat and water. I have seen our electric go on and off multiple times during outages. I have replaced surge protectors that fried, a refrigerator that got zapped, several well pumps that got hit by lightning and various other electrical items. For me, a UPS for my laptops charger is just peace of mind for me. So it all comes down to preference. [/QUOTE]
