Re: [Rant] Best Buy / Geek Squad UPS I actually had a APC UPS do this after being hit with a light surge, of course APC replaced it with no problems.
I do have geek squad and APC UPS's cause when we went to the local store to buy all our UPS's we bought all the 1300va APC ones and I decided to place the non mission critical stuff of the geek squad ones (TV (for weather), wireless antenna's, non critical servers). So far they have performed ok, not outlasting the APC one's in runtime considering they are supposed to be a higher rating.
Either way, even though I havn't had any problem with the geek squad ones with the excellent service I have had with APC, I will just wait for them to come back into stock. I don't like buying them online cause some reason companies think shipping should be like $50 for them. I paid $15 to ship my fried one back to APC on Fedex Ground, UPS wanted $20.
--EDIT-- NOT to also forget the 3 year warranty that APC gave on these products. |
