Product Description desertcart Basics From the Manufacturer desertcart Basics

Review: You need to get these! - You know I kinda hate to admit this but the infrastructure in my area is in decline. The power goes out more than ever and we are literally so connected now that many times a a day I think I would rather have internet than water! With this and as we get older we have decided to have a generator installed at our house. Last summer our electricity went out in June. Louisiana heat in June is no joke. Pushing 60 is also no joke. Pushing 60 with 104 heat index may make you not see 61. My wife and I fled to another city. My sister and her husband stayed in their home.... for three days with no electric. It's one of those things. You always feel like it'll come back on in another hour... or by dark, by midnight... first thing in the morning. By the time three days went by my poor sister would have been in tears but she was so dehydrated she couldn't cry. (yes she could have come to Dallas with us but they declined) Everyone affected had every bit of perishable food ruined. So after days with no electric... once it comes on the grocery stores also had no power... then it took a few days after power for them to get deliveries and then the stores were gutted for a solid week. The whole ordeal from power outage to power on to throwing out food to purchasing new food to back to normal was no kidding two weeks. It was awful and I wasn't even here. We fled. We are very fortunate to have another home in another state. All our food was ruined but we purchased food locally at our other home in Texas and just brought it back in coolers. I say all that to say this. I purchased three of these desertcart UPS systems for our home. We are having a whole home generator installed. These power our modem our router and three of our desertcart EERO modules throughout our home. In the past as soon as the power goes out it's internet out. Now with these installed the power to those items goes through the battery. When the power goes out the things plugged in continue to work until the battery dies. I tested this. I have ATT fiber internet. I use desertcart EERO (which are amazing by the way) for my router with three additional modules for mesh coverage. My testing concluded that with just these items on the battery the desertcart UPS will give you about 1:45 before the battery dies and you now have no internet. It takes our new generator about 1 minute to sense a power outage, start and then put power back to the house. In this case our internet will never go down. In the past even with a split second surge it would take about 5 minutes for everything to come back online. These eliminate that. These are a very inexpensive way to give you a moment to close out what your working on and properly shut down whatever is plugged into it. Simple plug and play install. I highly recommend.
Review: Communicates well with QNAP TS-230 NAS file server - I just received this UPS, so I can't comment on battery life. I got the 800VA/450W, 12 Outlets. It uses a 12V 9Ah battery that is very common and inexpensive, so when the original battery dies, it should be easy to find a replacement. I love that it has so many outlets, 6 with battery backup and 6 with only surge protection. I have many electronics connected, and this avoids using additional power strips. The main purpose of buying this UPS was to protect my QNAP TS-230 NAS during power outage. This is an entry level two bays file server. I wasn't sure if it would support communication with UPS backup battery. The QNAP manual for this model does not mention anything about connecting to UPS. I received the UPS and charged it overnight before connecting anything to it. It came with a USB A to B cable. The QNAP TS-230 has 3 USB ports: one is USB 2.0 speed and two are USB 3.0 speed. The USB 3.0 are designed for external drives to expand the capacity of the file server, so I figured I should connect the USB cable from the UPS to the USB 2.0 port on the back of QNAP. I turned the UPS on, waited a few seconds for it to come online and plugged the QNAP to one of the battery backup outlets. Next I turned on the QNAP. It takes about 5 minutes to boot. When I heard the second beep that indicates it's ready, I logged in into the QNAP from my computer. After a few seconds, a window appeared that an external device (CPS ABST800) was detected. I clicked on "View external storage settings" and it brought me to Control Panel>External Device>UPS. Here it showed the UPS manufacturer (CPS), the model (ABST800), the battery capacity and the estimated protection time. On this screen you can configure what the QNAP should do in case of power outage. I set it to turn off the NAS after 3 minutes of power outage. Next tested the setup: I unplugged the UPS from the wall. It started beeping every few seconds to indicate that it's running on battery. After 3 minutes on battery power, the NAS started an orderly shutdown process. After a few minutes, it shutdown completely. Perfect! As someone else mentioned, this UPS is manufactured by CyberPower, which is ubiquitous. This is an advantage in my opinion, because more clients are likely to support it than a smaller brand. For anyone that owns a QNAP NAS and is debating whether this UPS will work with it, it probably will.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product, exceeds my requirements and that is good security
*by D***E on January 21, 2026*

I have had this in use for about a month, and no problems whatsoever. I expected none, so that is satisfying. I strongly recommend using a UPS. This one was to replace an older one that I overloaded and ruined some equipment. I expect better results with this more robust UPS. I have had good results with Amazon Basics items in the past, and this seems to be of excellent quality.
