 So-So June 15, 2008
The first unit I received was bad and Amazon exchanged it very quickly (within two days) and without any hassles. The second unit I received was bad as well. I contacted Monster and they said they would exchange the second bad unit. They mailed (USPS) me a UPS label to send it back. I sent it to them and about a month later, I received a third unit. It is working great. It didn't cost me anything to exchange the bad units, but waiting over a month was not any fun.
 Lasted almost 2 years and then died June 8, 2008
300 bucks I paid for this and it lasted me only 2 years and then died. Is it worth it? What's a new bulb worth should the power go out and the bulb wear out faster than usual? Not as much as buying two of these units! I won't buy Monster again.
two doa and counting May 24, 2008
we just received our second new unit, and like the first it is dead on arrival. i'm embarrased that a supposedly high-end American company has such lousy quality control. i'm looking for something similar now, only made in Japan, where quality seems to be more of a concern.
Not worth the money December 2, 2007
Review:
I've had my HTUPS500 for 2 years, now and I'm fed up with it and will be getting something else. My biggest complaints are:
1. It doenst keep my components on very long when the power goes out, (like maybe 3 minutes tops with just my DVR turned on).
2. My biggest complaint is that when the power does finally come back on, the HTUPS-500 doesnt automatically turn back on, which means that my DVR doesnt come back on, and I miss TONS of programming, even if the power was only out for 10 minutes. You have to *manually* turn the UPS back on once power is restored.
For the money, I would expect more. I wont be buying any more Monster products. They are WAY over-priced for what you get.
My recommendation: Buy something else.
Good product, but not with all TV's August 9, 2007
I believe this is a good product, but the technology is not there so that it works with all TV's. I ordered from an online seller via Amazon and found that I was unable to return the product because the box had been opened. I would call MonsterCable before I purchased because they informed me (after the fact) that this product does not work with my TV. When I say it does not work with my TV, I mean it does not work 100%. I am able to use it as a battery back up, but it will not turn the TV off when the power goes out. So, the product does what I need it to, but the extras are not functional. Hope this helps someone looking to buy this product.
