Amazon is selling a home UPS for $55 right now

<p>Amazon has several deals on APC back-up power supplies and surge protectors (https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=gbps_tit_s-3_1712_7b7a3962?node=15709796011&amp;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;pf_rd_p=d3152026-148f-4b24-a686-6518d33b1712&amp;pf_rd_s=slot-3&amp;pf_rd_t=701&amp;pf_rd_i=gb_main&amp;pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;pf_rd_r=5FRFBVF1H53YYD1X9ZC4) right now, and the best of them is the APC Back-UPS Connect for $55 (https://www.amazon.com/APC-Back-UPS-Connect-Charging-BGE50ML/dp/B013JHYQNC/ref=lp_15709796011_1_4). That’s its lowest price yet on the site, and the first real discount we’ve seen in the last six months.</p><p>The Back-UPS Connect is an interesting device as it can act as a mobile power pack, or you can slap it in the dock for a 50 watt UPS. When in mobile mode, it has enough power to charge a smart phone approximately five times. When docked, the UPS supplies about 2.5 hours of power for a home network. (That’s not a ton of time, but it’s fine for a sub-$60 UPS. Remember, this is not a fancy pure sine wave UPS like the CyberPower unit (http://www.pcworld.com/article/3198510/computers/newegg-is-selling-a-pure-sine-wave-ups-for-just-125-right-now.html) we looked at in May.) And when you’re not using it for battery power, the Back-UPS Connect doubles as a surge protector.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3209145/computers/amazon-is-selling-a-home-ups-for-55-right-now.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
