  An inverter at an affordable price

  This inverter does the job. It's the second one I've got, the first has been working for 6 or 7 years without any problems.
  The only criticism is that it doesn't communicate, i.e. it warns you when the power is cut, takes over when you save and shut down the computer, but it doesn't do this itself. So it's not a good idea if you're in the (very bad) habit (or need to be, NAS server for example) of leaving your PC running. For the rest, it's great.
  After that, it's already very good for the price.

  100% satisfied

  I replaced my broken inverter with this identical model, so there were no changes to the connections.

  Perfect for my patchbay

  I bought this UPS to protect my network infrastructure (Box-Switches) and some NAS devices.considering the power, it is sufficient for my use and the quality of EAton products is not to be denied.10/10 for LDLC perfect at all levels as usual.

  Faulty inverter after 1 month!!!

  UPS used to complement my IT solution, where the essential elements are connected to APC UPS. I wanted a secondary UPS for less sensitive equipment. So I bought this device.
  Only a printer and a box were connected to this Eaton UPS, so it was not used much. No recent power cuts, no surges, and yet the inverter gave up the ghost after barely a month: 3 out of 4 sockets are out of order...
  I'm going to see if it's possible to have it replaced by LDLC, otherwise it's garbage and buy another brand.
  I don't recommend this brand or model.

  Very good

  For the moment it works perfectly, I use it to back up a small NAS server. Very easy to install.
  I'm waiting to see what happens when I use it, but it seems to be a robust and reliable product.
  Very satisfied (for the moment) I recommend this purchase.

  Perfect

  When used upstream of my NAS, it lives up to expectations.
  A recent power cut showed its efficiency. It held up for several tens of minutes before I manually switched off the equipment behind it.
  
  The only downside is the lack of USB return on this model, which would have been a real plus, especially when you don't need the capacity of the higher model.

  simple and practical to connect to consumer equipment.

  It's great for holding up a livebox, its fibre coupler, a home automation system, and a WiFi access point, etc. The delestage socket is very useful in this type of configuration, but you have to take into account that the master must consume enough power.
  
  The plastic is a bit "cheap" to the touch... but it looks like those weird fireproof plastics. But I'm not going to check it right away.
  
  Simple and straightforward for basic domestic use.

  Very good

  Bought a month ago to replace a UPS that was out of order and protecting a desktop with a screen and a box, it does the job perfectly. I know the EATON equipment for having used and installed it in companies without any problem, except that here the design of the plastic block is a bit "DIY". The fact that the batteries can be easily replaced is a big plus. The price is quite reasonable, I recommend the product.

  Almost perfect

  Once set up, the operation is simple and effective. I have just tested it in real life with a general power cut in the neighbourhood of 5 minutes. I protect iMac, timemachine and synologic server. Perfect.
  The only downside. The battery was disconnected during transport. The only downside is that the battery was disconnected during transport, so the system did not work when I installed it. Good reaction from LDLC support who directed me to the manufacturer's support. Known problem. And, provided I had a T10 screwdriver, it was fixed in 5 minutes.
  So I don't regret my purchase.
  The advantage of the system is that it takes up very little space (8cm high), which allowed me to slide the inverter, time machine disk, disk server and box under a piece of furniture, behind the skirting board. It saves space, there are no wires lying around and it is invisible.

  Securing a computer workstation

  Designed to protect a workstation from power cuts and surges. Since its installation, I no longer have any unwanted disconnections from the box and, above all, I no longer have short-circuits when I touch the casing of my PC.
  
  Autonomy of at least 40 minutes with screen+UC+box+phone.
