Salicru - SPS 650 HOME UK - Uninterruptible Power Supply 650VA / 360W, 693CA000003

This arrived on time yesterday, plugged in and allowed to fully charge.I am in a caravan which is prone to sudden power outages so This is used to give me time to save my work and close down.I am running the new Mac mini and a 28 inch AOC 4k monitor and carried out a test failure, I got just over 60 minutes before the beeps picked up speed and I powered back on, more than happy with that.Mac mini draws a max of ~40 watts & AOC2879 ~65 watts, once docs/files are saved, turning off monitor would extend these times or connect my Belkin dock. for less time.Update:After unsuccessfully trying to connect to UPS with the downloaded software (even after switching off firewall) I found that MacOS had already discovered it after connecting USB lead and shows battery status on the menu bar :-)

Given 3 stars for tech and battery life as not had cause to put these to the test. I already have one of these myself and this one I bought for my mother who has a careline, so this, the phone and the Internet have backup power. The only downsize is due to the shape of the plugs the other 3 sockets which just have surge protection aren't accessible as they are blocked by the other plugs.

Great basic UPS but if you want to use it with your NAS (in my case QNAP NAS) it does not offer data output from USB, which means the NAS will not know its running on battery and will not shut it down lautomatically.

The media could not be loaded. I needed a lithium ion ups, so this was purchased, however it has a lead acid battery so breached advertising. May be misleading as this is not correct technical description.

Works as expected. Great when you're having building work and need your router / broadband to stay connected whilst working from home.Only annoying thing is that it beeps every 10 seconds or so when it's in battery mode. Would be nice to be able to shut it up.Uninterruptible beep supply.

Overheated and burned out within 30mins of first use....

Perfect for running my BT hub and wireless phones when we have a power cut Now more important now that we are on digital voice giving a permanent tel connection

Windows 10 configures this as if your PC is a laptop with a battery, however it also disables the communication between the Salicru UPS software and the UPS so you can't use all the features that you should be able to use for a UPS. Without it the UPS is seriously very basic indeed.Shame as its a well made unit and quite stylish. Also doesn't register on both my QNAP NAS devices despite it apparently being a HID UPS.
