" ...  After 4 years it developed problems shutting down and I could not link it to the battery as the charge was not showing to be depleted. ... I thought I would try it, and return the batteries if it won't work. ... Now, when plugged in, it gives an F04 error (bad or discharged battery) and constant clicks from the switch.  ...  "

" ...  well at exactly the 2 year marks the noise went crazy. ... The noise is now probably 10x-20x louder than a new unit and changes tones / speeds / turns to a grinding sound all at random.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The fan is loud and never turns off on the SMART1500LCD.  ...  "
comment
" ...  and the fan doesn't sound as terrible as these. ... They are louder than my 10GbE switch with tinny high rpm spinners, and sound like cheap rattley garbage.  ...  "

" ...  Could not take the machinery hum /whine.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Oh and it's a little loud when charging or discharging.  ...  "

comment
" ...  Noisy at all times.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Tested a vornado fan and it makes a weird noise when it goes on battery backup. ... The fan is making the noise, not the backup. ... They just explained that because of the modified sine wave on battery I'm going to hear that noise on the fan. ... I asked about if I would hear something like that with the computer and they said no and explained why.  ...  "

" ...  We suffer from intermittent power blips on a regular basis, which puts everything offline until the modem and routers reboot, and the cable boxes can take 7-8 minutes. ... Using this to power the modem and routers and the main cable box, I avoid all of that.  ...  "
comment

comment
" ...  I've got a rack for my house that is essentially the home-run for all of my Apple TVs, DirecTV receivers, home networking, etc. ... The bottom line is, if you have a robust home network or even a small business network that you need solid temporary backup for, this is a great option.  ...  "
