Good product should be in $35 range

"Priced too high. Purchased only because it was on sale but still high I think. It appears they have not changed associated PowerChute software application in years so no new development efforts there. No new buttons/feautres on the unit itself either so no new feature/functionality here as well that I can see.

"Look, this is a simple UPS. It is more than adequate to run the normal home PC with monitor. It is not intended to run a printer and home PC. And it is only intended to run your system for a few minutes to allow you to shut the system down.
