5 stars because of price/performance
I already had a Powerwalker device 15 years ago. Lead gel batteries have to be replaced every 10 years, which was also the case with me (size: 15.10 cm / 6.50 cm / 9.90 cm). In the meantime, the electronics have failed.
This successor model has a much stronger transformer. In addition, software can be installed to monitor the unit and automatically shut down the computer in the event of a power failure:

for:
- Windows
- Mac
- Linux (32 and 64)
- VMware ESXi etc.Pro
- Easy handling
- 12V 9Ah battery installed
- Interface for software
Contra
- German Schuko plug
- quickly overtaxed
Works without problems
Shuts down both my NAS without any problems after one minute. Do not forget to connect the switch to the UPS. Otherwise the second NAS will not shutdown when it is requested by the first one via network.
Not for use with T13 Swiss plugs
Neither the plug on the cord nor the two sockets on the back are Swiss T13. I don't think this product would be accepted by ESTI
Security for Nas
Pro
- No current peaks and short bridging for NAS
Defective battery after 2 years
Just after the warranty expired, I noticed during a power interruption that the battery could not supply the two connected NAS for 10 seconds. Up to this point, I was very happy with the UPS.
A UPS with a battery that can't even bridge a few minutes is definitely useless.Pro
- Interface to NAS
- Size
- Performance
Contra
- Bright blue LED
- Battery defective after warranty
