Review: Works great - Got this for my 5090 gaming pc. It works perfectly. You need to get an adapter so it can fit your regular home outlets.
Review: Good Value in a Hurry! - Our old APC SMART UPS Master, just stopped working after about 9 years, I was shocked when I realized how long it had been in place with battery change outs about every 3 years. I wanted a similar long lasting replacement with long batter times, this met that need, with, I think 6 - 8 plug-ins on the back (fewer UPS protected outlets), but able to set a master and program plug priority to some extent all from the front LCD. Not too hard to do and very easy to plug in the battery packs! It arrived sooner than expected.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What type of connector does this have for input power, is it nema 5-15 or does it require a special type of receptacle like a 30 or something?**
A: Since this listing lists both the SMX3000 and SMX2000, I'll answer both:
the SMX3000 has the NEMA L5-30R plug on it, and the SMX2000 has the NEMA L5-20R plug on it

**Q: Is it possible to daisy chain more than one of these to a apc smx3000lv ups?  as in have 1 smx3000lv and 3 of these batter packs connected to it?**
A: I have never tried but on the back there are connections to suggest that you can. There is a cord with a propriety connector. There is also a receptacle that accepts that same proprietary connectory. So I would assume that this is for daisy chaining the external battery packs.

**Q: Does this come with the cable to connect it to the main controller unit?**
A: Yes, it does come With the cable to connect to the main controller unit.

**Q: What is the voltage?  description says 48v but apc web site for that part number says it is 120v**
A: Since this is only a battery pack the voltage is 48V when connected to a UPS

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Value in a Hurry!

### ⭐ Only made 8 months before dying...
*by J***G on August 7, 2019*

The headline says is all. Received an emergency call that power went out and once it was restored the servers did not reboot like normal. Rush down to the office to find the APC beeping away displaying OUTPUT failure. Was a total let down for the money it cost... switching products in search of something better.
