Update after 7 months of use:
Problem: As long as it worked, it worked flawlessly. But for the last couple of weeks, the router ups has been providing zero back up. As soon as the power fails, the router too switches off, meaning that the battery is dead. Someone else who bought this around the same date as I did also has run into this problem. Looks like a “bad lot” from which both routers came? Cannot say.
Solution: This is covered under warranty and I have given it for replacement. Service center says the replacement will need to be picked up from the service center in 10 days. Until then, no back up for me. ——— This is an easy to install and use UPS for your wifi router. Compact, it is roughly the size of a standard laptop adapter.
Instructions are clear. If the Input and output power pins need to be ‘adapted’, there are three of input and 3 more of output adapter pins included in the pack.
Compared to another popular brand (of which I have a router ups too), this one is cheaper while performing at the same levels as far as my experience says. So, a total value for money.
Note: While ordering this, make sure of 2 things: 1. Voltage level matches that of the router’s power adapter 2. The current input rating of the router is less than or equal to the output current rating of the UPS.

Initially this gave backup of around 4 hrs easily, now after 1 year of usage the backup time dropped to 1-1.5hr only. Not at all expected this sudden drop in backup. Should consider this while buying this product.

I bought this product to use with my nokia fiber router, and I am very satisfied with its performance. It is easy to install, just plug and play, and it provides seamless switching between power sources. It gives me up to 4 hours of backup during power cuts, which is very helpful for my home from getting internet outage. The product is also compact and durable, and it is made in India. The only drawback is that it takes a long time to charge, but that is not a big issue for me. Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone who needs a reliable backup for their router.

it gets restrats whenever there’s a power cut..so its not an UPS at all.. there’s no consistent power backup.. Back up is okay considering the promised 4hrs(attached stopwatch timer of what i got on an average) …but over some time it will depreciate for sure…so choose wisely

I purchased this on 5 Mar, 2021 and I am writing this review on 12 Jul, 2023. It has been 2 years 4 months 7 days since the purchase. Last month, I started noticing the backup times dropping, and today as I write this review, I’m sitting in the dark in front of a laptop that is connected to my mobile hotspot because this UPS has stopped working. It’s just been 5 mins since the power cut, and the backup is already dead. In its good old glory days, it gave the wifi power backup easily for 4 hours. It has been a good journey, but I’m afraid I must retire this product now. Goodbye, old friend.

Update 2… 1. Item runs 1hr 14m @1A giving 15.465Wh, runs 48m @1.5A giving 14.82Wh whereas its rated at 22.2Wh & since its april’21 made, i’d say battery is defective & wont last me long, ordered replacement. 2. Replacement runs 1h 32m @1A giving 19.39Wh, 1h 1m @1.5A giving 18.452Wh & being made in nov’20 i think this batt is alright. I’m keeping the replacement & ending my review unless item fails catastrophically. ======= Update… 1. This is what “make in India” has become- a plethora of Indian registered companies slapping their logo & selling chinese items in India, to cash in Indian sentiments. This is a generic item sold by slapping diff brand names like zinq, quantum (available right here on amazon) & prolly more. Even the boxes r exactly same… lol. 2. Recharge rate is horribly slow @0.5A, so 2.2Ah will take 4.4hrs, considering losses 4.5hrs. That’s why frequent power cut ppl r complaining about 1hr standby. So its basically for ppl with occasional power cuts (like me with community generator). 3. Ups has to be turned ON to recharge… what? why? lame! This is another reason ppl r complaining about charging issue & since item is generic, ZINQ prolly doesn’t even know… lol… such a dumb thing must be printed on the center of the box itself. I myself was fooled for 6hrs thinking that its charging but it went cold so checked with power meter & wow! It didn’t charge a bit. 4. Had i been younger with lotza free time, i could’ve made one myself for ₹80+80+80+150+50 for 1.8Ah one… Gone r those fun days! So I’m keeping it for ₹1001.
** if any1 is reading my review, youtube search for “router ups” & lotza young ppl with free time have made such DIY. =============== Damn this thing can output over 35watts of power @12v. For the 1st time something has out-specked my 35w load tester.
Pros- 1. Can output 3A or even more, that i could test. Great for sudden load surge. 2. Very stable output 12-12.1v throughout 0-35w. 3. Solid built, almost all possible connectors provided, seamless switching from AC to battery (obviously), easy to use.
Cons- 1. No polarity changing option for in/out. Some items/chargers do have center negative, for that i have to make my own cable. 2. Since it went 3A or above, i dont think theres any overload/short circuit protection. 3. Item got quite hot when run at 12v 2A for 15mins. I hope theres thermal protection. 4. Item is sealed shut. Any repair or future battery change will be destructive.
