No one's going to be running an A/C or refrigerator off of a 1000VA battery backup. Not only would it only last a few minutes, the compressor starting up would be too much amperage and it would cut out immediately. Sine wave used to be important for PC power supplies a couple decades ago. Power supplies are built much better nowadays and aren't effected by simulated sine wave. The only things someone might need a pure sine wave UPS for these days are sensitive medical equipment, like CPAP machines, etc. The audiophile community likes to spend money on pure sine wave UPS's and power conditioners, but they've been proven redundant many times, as any decent amplifier already has power conditioning built-in.
The answer is a somewhat annoying "it depends," but generally speaking, yeah, it should be totally fine for any modern desktop computer power supply. No power supply provides AC mains power to the parts; they convert it converts it to DC. In so doing, they have systems for power filtration built in, because the power coming from the grid is never (okay, rarely) 100% perfect.

The primary drawbacks in reality are that the PSU may run less efficiently and generate somewhat more heat. However, in a situation where you'd want a relatively low-capacity UPS like this, it's probably to have time to save your work and shut down or you expect the power will come back in <5min, in which case the efficiency loss is likely to make a big difference.

In other words: I'd be more worried about a power surge or sudden loss of power causing damage to your computer than I would be about a simulated sine wave.

That said: this does not extend to all devices! If you're thinking of putting HiFi audio equipment, machinery, medical devices, or, like, a PDP-11 behind a simulated sine wave UPS: don't.
Make sure you add item# 103672 to cart with orders over 100.00

It adds a 20.00 virtual gift card

Anyone receive the $20 visa card via email? I know it says it takes a few days. I received next day delivery of my UPS (using it now, seems fine), and my filler item is due on Monday (some scotch tape).
Yes I did.
Final price, 88-20 = 68.

Anyone else have theirs ship, but not show any tracking info? Track shipment button greyed out. ETA was yesterday, still no UPS and no way to track.

This was followed by another email from the same address confirming the info you submitted

Then another came from [email protected], Subject: Congratulations! You are receiving a Visa® virtual account. This had the "Redeem" link.

Got my UPS today. Someone else had clearly opened it prior to getting to me. Scumbags swapped the new battery for an old one and returned it. Left me with a new UPS with a nearly useless battery. This should be fun to deal with returning.

fark OD for selling opened goods as new, let alone without checking the product.

Fairly certain I received a refurbished unit from this deal. The taping on the outside looked redone and there is a quality assurance "revision" checklist taped to the unit. Waste of time.

Same, unit looks tampered with and the battery doesn't look completely new.

Also, my unit doesn't power on so time to start the return process.

are you sure it's refurbished? it's fairly common to have thing reinspected or repaired at the end of the line.

go on any car factory tour. they have a reject and repair section at the end of the line. still sold as new.

Mine arrived yesterday. Broken out of the box. Just plugging it in with nothing attached, the overload notification came up. Unplugged, replugged, same thing. Exchange at my 2nd closest Office Max went smooth and easy, and the exchanged one is working fine.
