APC Back-UPS BX600C-IN 600VA / 360W UPS | Backup for WiFi Router, Desktop PC & CCTV | 3 Power Backup Outlets | 2 Year Warranty | Ideal for Home Office & Online Classes

excellent product. working really well as a power backup for my 55' OLED Tv during the short powercuts.

I have been using this UPS for more than 3 years now. I have never faced any issues with this. The backup time was good initially and degraded slowly with time, also depending on the load. I mostly connected this with my WIFI router (initially 4 hours backup, later reduced), and sometimes for table lamps, laptop charging, etc. The product comes with a 2-year warranty including the battery which is really good, but I did not need to avail the warranty. The battery backup went to almost 0 mins this week, so I changed the battery myself and it is working again as good as new. I purchased this product in July 2020 but the battery placed date was 2019 (FYI) which was a Lead acid 12V 7AH rating - the battery staying over 4 years can be considered good. I got a new Amaron battery which cost me Rs.1100 from a local Amaron shop this week. Overall, I am happy with the product!

If I could give zero stars, I would. I ordered the APC Back-UPS BX600C-IN from Amazon on May 27, 2025, after reading the product description and packaging that clearly claimed it supports Smart TVs and gaming consoles. I trusted Amazon and believed I was buying a reliable product. But the moment I connected both my TV and gaming console, the UPS started beeping, showed a red light, and went into overload. It simply DOES NOT work for the very purpose it was bought for. Amazon’s response? “Contact the manufacturer.” APC's response? “It’s not compatible, we can’t help.” So basically, I’ve been sold a completely useless product based on false claims, and now both Amazon and APC are passing the buck. No refund. No replacement. Just scripted replies and no accountability. What’s worse? Amazon refuses to accept a return because “it’s a compatibility issue”—even though the box itself lies about compatibility. What kind of policy is this? Should I now test every product in a lab before trusting what your website or packaging says? This is not just bad service—this is customer cheating. My hard-earned money is stuck, and no one cares. Buyers, be warned: Amazon will wash their hands clean if a third-party brand lies, and you’ll be left frustrated, cheated, and broke.

I recently purchased the APC Back-UPS BX600C-IN for my home office setup, and after a few weeks of use, I'm quite impressed with its performance. Here's my detailed review of this UPS system. The first thing to note is the compact design of the BX600C-IN. It's small enough to fit under a desk or alongside your PC without taking up much space. The build quality feels sturdy, and the overall look is sleek and unobtrusive. The UPS offers a load capacity of 360W/600VA, which is sufficient for my home office setup, including a desktop PC, monitor, and a few other small peripherals. The three battery-backed and surge-protected Indian power sockets are a thoughtful addition, catering well to the local market needs. One of the standout features for me is the Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR). It handles the frequent voltage fluctuations in my area seamlessly, with a wide input voltage range of 145–290 volts. The transfer time (10 ms typical, 12 ms maximum) is quick enough to prevent any interruptions or system crashes during power cuts. The backup time varies depending on the load, but I've found it to be quite adequate for my needs. The 1x7.2Ah battery provides around 20 to 75 minutes of backup time, which is enough to save work and safely shut down my equipment. It's also worth noting that the UPS is generator-compatible and works well with low power loads like Wi-Fi routers and DSL modems, which is a plus for a home office setup. The cold start capability is another feature I appreciate. It allows me to power up the load just on the battery, which is useful during long power outages when I need to start my equipment without waiting for the mains power to return. One of the most pleasant aspects of this UPS is its quiet operation. Even during a changeover from mains to generator, the UPS remains silent, which is great as I am sensitive to noise in my workspace. In conclusion, the APC Back-UPS BX600C-IN is a solid choice for anyone looking for a reliable power backup solution for a home office or home electronics. It offers a good balance of features like AVR, sufficient backup time, compact design, and quiet operation, all of which make it a worthwhile investment for protecting your valuable electronics against power interruptions.

GOOD PRODUCT AND GOOD SERVICE

I tried APC again after around a decade and regret it again! Short version - Look elsewhere. APC is NOT suited to our country's conditions/setups that are just the way they are. Earlier, years ago when I purchased APC, it failed to work on the occassional Genset power and that was annoying. They may have fixed that, but now, it has another fuss / bug / defect. I purchased two of these, and both have similar issue - They frequently fail to provide backup in a power interruption ! Rather they shut off, and start wailing with long beeps and flashing red light on power button. My SOHO setup has multiple desktops/devices that need uninterrupted power and while I have a large capacity inverter on duty, my desktop and devices like router prefer faster switch times. So I additionally use UPS where required. Currently using three - 2 of APC and 1 other popular brand. Needless to say the other UPS from other brand performs as expected - flawlessly . It's been just about a month or so of using the APC UPSes and both have exhibited the aforementioned issue without reason - can be replicated by turning off power from wall socket with load on UPS. 3-4 times out of ten the APCs will wail and shut off ! Raised a complaint with an unenthusiastic chat agent and got call from a technician who tried at length to understand the setup and first asked to connect to a line not on inverter - well not possible I don't have direct power sockets available - and the fact the other brand UPS does not mind the inverter at all! The technician further argued, if used on inverter line / manually tested via switching off wall socket switch / 'the UPS detects a neutral and shuts off to protect devices'. Well, WHY does one use a UPS ? To prevent interruptions data loss - but APC UPSes CAUSE both since they are basically crap / unsuitable / incompatible with brand of inverter / garbage - or all of the above?! APC, Perhaps you're suited to America and 110V. You cannot handle 220V. Please refund our money and also compensate for the trouble. Thumbs Down Update : A polite APC service engineer visited and replaced the PCB. Unfortunately have experienced the same issue one time again so far. I'm no expert but the absence of capacitors on the PCB raises a question. Maybe the relays are not quick enough and capacitors could have helped. Maybe the actual capacity is lower than rated. Not sure.. since backup time is decent. After Sale Service is good. If only the product was as reliable too.

This was the best fit for a ps5 gaming set up.

This UPS is very good. My office PC used to hang due to sudden power failures and uneven voltage fluctuations. After installing the UPS, there are no more issues, and my PC now works smoothly. I recommend this UPS as one of the best options for a PC. Also, this brand is trustworthy.
