Incase there is a power failure in your local place. Don’t use it for extra time just because you can.

Well it can be used but not recommended, for that you have other devices in the market such as the invertors and the generators.

I have to tell you that, APC has done a very good job when it comes to the quality of the product.

Plus the looks and the feel of it also is very professional and not like some cheap gear. As I said before that the run time depends on what you use it for, if it is a heavy running task like video rendering then the machine is going to beep faster and if the task is a light weight running one, like copy pasting files then it will beep slower in speed.

This device is very easy to use.

just plug all your cables like the SMPS power cable, monitor power cable and internet modem adapter at the back of it and connect the main UPC power cable to the source, that’s it. If you wish, you can also connect your speakers to it but that is something which is optional, it’s up to you, the more devices you connect the faster the power drains.

Before buying this APC just make sure that how much power your computer consumes that will save you money if you are a basic user. And by basic user, I mean people that have got basic configuration of their computers. Just built computer for things like browsing, playing low graphical games, streaming full HD video content or movies etc. Can you this UPC. But these were some tasks that I used to explain you in a better way. In this technological world things can change very fast. For most regular computer users this is going to be fine.

But if you are looking for a UPS for gaming computer or for your video editing beast then I have also made a review about it’s elder brother that is the APC UPS 1100. Check it out, if the 600 is insufficient for you.

The computer monitor will consume energy as follows, this can change depending upon what company device you are using,

22-inch monitor: approx. 20 – 40 watts
24-inch monitor: approx. 20 – 55 watts
27-inch monitor: approx. 50 – 90 watts
30-inch monitor: approx. 90 – 140 watts

Runtime with Basic configured PC – 20-30 Minutes
Charging Time UPS – 5 Hours, 20 Minutes
Runtime with just Internet Modem – 2 Hours
These stats are without the battery mode activated.

And the average home internet modem use 3 watts to 6 watts, once again it all depends on your device.

600 VA – 360 W
1100 VA – 660 W

600 VA is equal to 360 Watts, So it all depends on the power of your SMPS that is the power supply device in your computer. And you add a little more power for the internet modem and the monitors. Together if the power is below 360 Watts, it will work for you. Otherwise go for the 1100.

As I have upgraded to the APC 1100, I am currently using the APC 600 for my TV and sound system,

which is actually great because now I don’t to miss any last over cricket moments if there’s any power failure. All thanks to APC UPS.

This APC 600 and the APC 1100 both comes with surge protection which makes it more safe for your components. It has a got a battery saver mode which reduces the run time of the UPS but increases the life of your battery.

Before you think of buying the APC 600, first calculate your power consumption.

Maybe, you need more power. Here’s a link to check the power consumption of your computer. And don’t forget to add the monitor, modem or speakers power consumption.

Do not connect any heaters, vacuum cleaners or printers to it.

If it is very important then the inkjet printers or the ink tank printers can be used, that too for a very limited time. But do not even think of connecting the LaserJet printers.

This is a video article about the APC 1100VA UPS. I bought this UPS for computer, 2 years back. And it works great, still the same as it was when it was newly purchased. And by the way, I have also got the APC 600.

So basically the story is, I first got the APC 600 for my computer.

Later I nearly upgraded all the components of my computer. Surprisingly the setup worked quite well with the APC 600. But when I installed the graphic card the RX 580, the computer was working with all the basic stuff but as soon as I switched to high task activities like gaming or video editing. It use to shut down directly which scared me off. Did a bit of research, found out, that I needed more power to my computer. And that’s when I got the APC 1100.

600 VA – 360 W
1100 VA – 660 W
My Total Consumption – 475 Watts

The computer monitor will consume energy as follows, this can change depending upon what company device you are using,

22-inch monitor: approx. 20 – 40 watts
24-inch monitor: approx. 20 – 55 watts
27-inch monitor: approx. 50 – 90 watts
30-inch monitor: approx. 90 – 140 watts

If you looked at the features, both the UPS’s are pretty similar accept the size and power. Even the looks of it is identical. I really like the looks of it, compared to the dabba UPS for computer, I have used in the past. The wire is strong and thick. The length of it is 1.5 meters.

Who is this APC 1100 UPS for.

The people who have got a computer built for slightly more then the basic usage. People like the intermediate video editors, HD gamers, streamers, youtubers etc. You can also use it for a basic configured computer, if you are going to use more power consuming accessories to attach to it. Usually people just connect the SMPS power cable, monitor and the internet modem. But you also can connect the speakers if that is your requirement.

Please use it as a ‘backing your data’ device and not as a ‘extra time’ device UPS for computer.

For that you have got other devices such as invertors and the generators. The APC 1100 has got sufficient ventilation windows and also got a fan inside to cool it down. At least, I could say that based on the sound it generates when switched off. I have not used it more then 25 minutes at a stretch. But generally it gives me between 15 – 25 minutes depending on the how heavy or light the processing task is.

My computer consumes 450W. But that is a pretty clear condition that I can not use the APC 600 UPS for computer. I am using the APC 600 UPS with my TV setup. It includes an old Sony bravia 40 inches TV, Sony 5.1 surround sound and a Tatasky. And the cool thing is, I don’t miss any last over cricket action anymore, all thanks to the APC UPS. The equipment or the components remain safe as both the UPS has got surge protection. This UPS comes with 5 sockets. 4 have got battery and surge protection while one has got only surge protection. It has a got a feature which basically works like a MCB switches, it trips when overloaded. And that can be easily reset by clicking this button.

It has also got a battery saver mode.

When activated it protects the battery and increases the life of it. But the drawback of that is you get less run time. So the backup time drops by half. The LED light on the right indicates that the UPS is charging. When completely charged, the light switches off. And by the way, the UPS charging time is 6 hours.

Before you think of buying the APC 1100 UPS for computer, first calculate your power consumption.

Maybe, you need less power, you could go for the APC 600 and save some money. Do not connect any heaters, vacuum cleaners or printers to it. If it is very important then the inkjet printers or the ink tank printers can be used, that too for a very limited time. But do not even think of connecting the LaserJet printers.

The fan runs for around about 5 minutes after you switch off the UPS.

There is no way to control the fan speed or duration. You will only notice it if you are working in a very silent place. So keep that in mind before getting this UPS. I have not called the customer service for the APC 600 as well as the APC 1100, so don’t know much about that but that tells the quality of these APC products.
