Built-in Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) corrects low and high voltage fluctuations without draining the battery, extending runtime through brownouts and minor surges, while a 350-joule surge energy rating and network dataline protection guard your connected electronics against damaging power surges and spikes. Two USB charging ports (1 USB-C and 1 USB-A, 5V/2A each) let you fast-charge phones and tablets directly from the unit, and a built-in Emergency Power Off (EPO) port and resettable circuit breaker add extra layers of protection and control. The user-replaceable battery (APC replacement battery RBC17, sold separately) lets you extend the life of your UPS without professional service. Backed by APC's trusted Back-UPS series and a 3-year warranty, the BVK950M2 is a reliable, value-priced battery backup for protecting your computer, network, and connected devices from unexpected power loss. Review: This passes "unplug/replug UPS - computer stays on test" - where a CyberPower failed. - I bought this UPS to go with a mini PC I have. The PC doesn't have a battery. As a test, I unplugged the UPS, and the PC stayed on. I plugged the UPS back in, and the PC kept running as expected. I initially bought a CyberPower CP850PFCLCD 850VA Sinewave UPS. My PC would would turn off when I plugged the PC back in during this test, and it was repeatable. The monitor stayed on, with no visible power cycling. I got a refund on the CyberPower - as the point of a UPS is for your computer to stay on during an outage (!!!). I initially chose the CyberPower for the sine wave, easily replaced battery, and digital display. This is a line interactive step-approximated sine wave system. The manual says the transfer to battery delay on outage is "6ms typical, 10ms max." The manual says the stepped sine wave is appropriate for computers and peripherals and "is not intended for motor driven equipment," and the input power may be rejected (no mention of any associated hazard). This is fine with me. I actually prefer (a lot) the simple operation of this unit compared to the CyberPower. I don't need all those extra settings the CyberPower has, which I realized when I stepped through them at installation. With the APC, you just charge it for 10 hours, and then plug it in and go. The APC is also smaller (6 3/4" tall vs. 9 1/2"). The APC has a voltage sensitivity setting (low/default) for noisy (voltage range) input voltage, for use with equipment not sensitive to this fluctuation, to avoid switch overs to battery, which shortens battery life. I left it on default, and there have been no switch overs. When I unplug the UPS (power outage) there are initial warning beeps, followed by 4 beeps every 30 seconds. You can mute those beeps with a short press of the power button, and you won't get more beeps until the battery level gets critical. The beeps aren't too loud, and I'll probably leave them going during an outage. There is optional software to control the UPS, which I haven't tested and don't need. Review: Great UPS, has saved me several times - Have saved my system from going down several times now. Stands in quickly so I do not loose my internet or cameras. Love the multiple outlets so I can keep several devices running for over an hour until the power comes back on. ## Features - KEEP WORKING WHEN THE POWER GOES OUT:950VA/480W provides up to 30 minutes of runtime at 100W to save work, shut down safely, or ride out short outages.

The alarm 'mode' can be set via the power button. **Q: How long will this product power my system when the power goes out?** A: The runtime of a battery backup will vary based on the amount of power required by the devices plugged into the battery backup outlets. APC's PowerChute Software details 'Estimated Battery Time' based on the power-draw of your connected devices. **Q: What do I do if my battery backup is not providing the expected backup time?** A: Batteries require recharging after extended outages and can wear faster when put into service without proper recharging or when operated at elevated temperatures. **Q: Will the USB Ports on this battery backup continue to charge devices when the power goes out?** A: Yes, as long as there is battery power in the battery backup, the USB Ports will actively power your Smartphone and other USB-charged devices. **Q: After a prolonged power outage, will this battery backup automatically turn back on once utility power resumes?** A: Yes, the battery backup will automatically turn back on after utility power resumes and the internal battery will begin recharging. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This passes "unplug/replug UPS - computer stays on test" - where a CyberPower failed. *by A***R on January 26, 2024* I bought this UPS to go with a mini PC I have.

Stands in quickly so I do not loose my internet or cameras. Love the multiple outlets so I can keep several devices running for over an hour until the power comes back on. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value but plug- in ports are close together. *by G***G on February 4, 2026* I'm not a tech nut but understand the value of a good surge protector/ battery back up. This one is much smaller than the one I had but that's great. Didn't need as many ports as I had before and this being upright takes up less space. The downside is that the plug in sockets are pretty close to one another. Would not recommend if you have the plugs that are more rectangle or take more space.
