Two weeks ago, we had the first power outage in a long while. It had been years since the power has gone out. I've been using two of these EC350G's for just under a year now.
Day to day, I've had no issues with them and as mentioned before, I never used them for their intended purpose since a couple weeks ago.
My two units are hooked up in a couple different scenarios.
1. Our main desktop. In this scenario, the software tells me I have less than five minutes of usage when the power goes out. It's hooked up to a desktop computer and a 32" UHD monitor. I have it set up that if the power goes out, it should wait a minute and then shut down the computer.
2. the NAS and one switch. In this scenario the software tells me that I have over 15 minutes of usage left when the power goes out. I keep my backups and files on the NAS so it's important it safely shuts down when the power goes out. I have it set up so after five minutes, it shuts off if power isn't restored.
Both scenarios worked flawlessly and I can't ask for more.
One thing to note is that these units will continue to beep when the power goes out. You have to manually turn them off when this happens. Then remember to turn them back on when power is restored.

Please avoid - Better to buy quality
I bought to give me a few extra seconds in a power outage to save my computer files. It would beep then shut off for no reason. Full 120v supplies power to the outlet.It started to turn off by itself for no reason.Went back to a standard power barIf your going to get a product like this, spend the money and get a quality product, this is absolute junk.
