Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Belkin F6C550-AVR 550VA Battery Backup with Surge Protection
Customer Review: OK, but not great
Summary: 3 Stars
I've had mixed success with this UPS. If I unplug the UPS from
the wall, it switches to battery back-up just fine. However,
there have been several cases when the power flashed off for
a fraction of a second during a storm and the UPS went into
overload, the computer immediately shut down and I lost all
my work. I bought it to handle that latter situation and so it
has not been very useful to me. I e-mailed Belkin tech support
about this and they... well they never responded.
Customer Review: Not enough power
Summary: 3 Stars
This is partly my fault for not checking, but I was expecting this to be able to handle at least my computer and monitor, which it sadly doesn't. While it's great to have a surge protector it looks like I'll need to buy another one to handle my computer. In general though it's easy to use although I haven't really had a situation where it's really tested. Haven't tried the software that comes with it.Customer Review: Know the wattage of your machine
Summary: 3 Stars
My Mac G5 with 20" display draws too much power for this unit. Even with NOTHING else plugged in, the Belkin beeps an overload warning the second I power up the Mac. I can run nearly everything else - Cable modem, router, USB hub, etc - without a warning, but the Mac alone draws too much power.Customer Review: Belkin Battery Backup
Summary: 3 Stars
Although product seems to work fine, accompaning software lacked some features and actually stopped system from booting. Still using and appears to be doing the job. I would have liked to see some indication of probable run time after interuption.
Customer Review: Not for a Large TV set
Summary: 3 Stars
My Sony TV set which draws 270 watts would not turn on with out
the UPS overloading and shutting down. Once it was working the
test function worked fine and if you turned the TV off for less
than 5 minutes it would start up OK
