Service life: 4 years
The battery lasted 4 years and a few days, I discovered it by chance when my NAS restarted alone, too bad there isn't a way to see the state of wear of the battery.
I don't know if it really exists because everything displays green even though the battery is dead.Review automatically translated -

Very good product, triggers at the slightest power cut. Fan a little noisy.

Lifespan: 3 years
Purchased in January 2021. After three years (a little less, actually), no longer holds a charge. The battery was replaced, but that didn't solve the problem. Now useless, except possibly as a lightning arrester...

I renew my confidence
I'd already had this product for many years (probably a good ten) before it stopped working. So I'm buying the same one again, as it does the job perfectly for a reasonable price.

3 years of operation
It will have lasted 3 years exactly.
So far it's saved my NAS from sudden power cuts, but for some time now, and despite a green light on "ok", every time there's a power cut it shuts down. It's just the NAS and an internet box connected to it.Review automatically translated -

The battery lasted 5 years
It's a shame that there's no warning that the battery is dead.... it was the power cut and the sudden shutdown of my Nas that alerted me!
However, on the display, all the charge bars are there.Review automatically translated -

Opinions on the EATON ELLIPSE PRO 650
Already the second model bought, the first is at least 3 years old.
Pros :
- Quiet, (unlike the top model whose fan spins all the time),
- Does the job, already tested with laptop + raspberry pi 4 on a 10 min power cut. It works,
- Flat, unobtrusive design, everything that's good about it,
the minuses :
- It's a pain to find the Windows driver, and for Linux, you have to get used to it. Frankly, it's completely out of place on a computer,
- power consumption display, which I'd say is a bit far-fetched on devices that consume very little power (laptop at the very least, Steam deck -> 100w overall).Review automatically translated -

Good product
This inverter that weighs its weight (of battery) does the job in silence.
With an Intel i3-8th, a Geforce 1650 and two SSDs, in daily use, with multimedia or games, you can see on the UPS screen that +/- 65W are consumed. So that leaves some room for improvement.
It is possible to change some of the settings of this device with a little Eaton software.
A small remark: the user manual provided by the manufacturer is a little too light for my taste.
The team at the Bourgoin-Jallieu shop = very good.Review automatically translated -

Just 3 years of life
Guaranteed for 3 years, and the inverter has just broken down 3 years after purchase.
Served well through the recurring micro/mini/real power outages, and did its job.
Wasn't able to cope with laser printer start-ups, but that was expected.
3 stars, because of the limited life span, real programmed obsolescence!Review automatically translated -

Wait'n'see
I'm very pleased with the quality of the product.
The package protects the device well with its power cable + USB cable long enough to not have to stick the machine to protect. I've been using it for a while now and it's a good idea to check it out. I have had several competing devices fail just after the end of the warranty (1 to 2 weeks at APC) I took the extension without question.
The management would deserve an additional button to validate/change the category, everything on the same one is a bit... heavy (-3 stars).Review automatically translated -

Packaging too basic
Original packaging of the inverter with a shipping label, no special protection (cardboard overpack, foam, bubble, etc.). For equipment with electronics, this is far too little. As far as the inverter itself is concerned, nothing to complain about, it works very well.

Eaton's, true to form
I ordered this inverter from this brand that I know well. I was expecting to have a silent model in non-wave mode on which I could retrieve consumption data and that's exactly what I got.
For the record, I am retrieving the data using a Raspbian 10 computer with the nut service (usbhid-ups driver).
The fan that activates in ripple mode is quite noisy, so you can quickly notice that something is wrong with the power supply.
I just had a bit of trouble with the one-button interface for menu navigation, I guess there really is such a thing as a one-button remuneration (https://youtu.be/LaAyGAKg4Cs?t=307)...Review automatically translated -

Farewell Eaton
I'm talking about a volume of 10 inverters, 8 of which broke down between 2 and 3 years ago, whereas before they were 6 to 8 years old, and yes, my 8 year old MGE still works, even with the battery. I'm going to go and test the competition, because even the service procedures are useless.

Battery out of order after 2 years and 1 month
After 2 years and 1 month (warranty expired) it starts to shut down by itself. Twice in a week. Obviously the NAS is cut with and without backup. The battery indicator shows that it is empty and therefore can no longer hold a charge. No warning of the fault before. The battery life is given for 4 years. The only thing left to do is to find a replacement battery.

I have a doubt
As soon as I unpacked the EATON ELLIPSE PRO 650 FR, I noticed a strong irritating chemical odour, and I had to air the room as much as possible. I wonder if an electronic component would not have leaked. I observe through the grill, we see electronic components, it seems to be normal, I plug it in, it works, and does what the manufacturer says. After a few hours I had to change it to a different part, but it still smells like a strong chemical irritant after 24 hours of use in a well ventilated room. So I'm wondering if the one I received might have a defect at this level, now I think there's a problem. Maybe the battery?

Perfect for now.
Just received it. Immediately plugged in. It's perfect, nothing to say for now. It does its job perfectly. Professional product. Packaging and delivery OK. I recommend the product and LDLC.

It's heavy stuff!
Good UPS, protects an average gamer setup. That said, it is very very heavy (batteries). A little bit too small for a computer + screen + router, but it is very suitable for a network cabinet (15 min at 200W).
Practical alarm signal in case of problems.Review automatically translated -

Product conforms but beware
The product seems to be sufficient for its intended use (i.e. protection of a NAS, a router and an internet box). For the moment, only the NAS is connected and the inverter announces roughly 7% of power and 1 hour of autonomy.
Be careful though: although there are 4 sockets, only 3 are really protected in case of a power cut. It is only possible to use it to control a master socket.
As for the packaging, it's a bit limited, the device being sent as is, without any other box than this one. No damage to report but it is surprising.Review automatically translated -

Perfect
Oversized for the moment: secures the box, a router, a switch and two NAS (Syno and Netgear)... USB is natively managed by Synology, and instantaneous UPS feedback.
Heats up a bit (but nothing alarming), no noise...
A good product, delivered quickly in the manufacturer's packaging.Review automatically translated -

Top product
I've got nothing to say about the product, easy to understand the different modes and the use of the master/slave sockets.
I use it to power my back-up nas (Syno DS215j), usb connection is recognized by it directly.
It's great.
------------------------------------------------------
I've been using it for a while now, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it for a long time. The box took a hit, the device fortunately not. The box took a beating, the device fortunately did not. At the price of shipping costs for Belgium and the number of complaints, a correct packaging is not too much to ask.Review automatically translated -

Attention to autonomy
Beware, the autonomies displayed are not at all related to the nominal power of the product (650VA).
In my case, at 34% power, 10 minutes of autonomy for a large desktop PC, a NAS QNAP TS231P and a Gigabyte 8 port switch. Solution: very fast power off of the PC and there we go to more than 20 min.
Compatible with QNAP TS231P via USB.Review automatically translated -

version actually with screen, functional
Obviously a good working product.
It is a version with a screen, whereas the competition sells a version without an LCD screen for the same price.
Does its job as everything continues to work when the power is turned off.
On the other hand, the usb connection with the syno hasn't worked yet and it's not with the manual provided that I will find an explanation.
I'll have to find the time to investigate further.Review automatically translated -

Excelent
This is the third Ellipse pro I've bought, excellent life span, satisfactory autonomy and often slightly better than advertised, regular self-test...
The only drawback is the stability of the USB interface which causes regular kernel messages (Linux) (USB disconnect then USB connect more precisely), a bit annoying, which costs it dearly a half star.
But don't be fooled, the quality remains excellent.Review automatically translated -

A priori compliant, no failure to test
in the positive points :
- perfectly recognized by the synology in USB (DS110J for info)
- quite complete front panel
- relatively quiet except for the occasional fan blow (rather rare)
negative points :
- NO PACKAGING. WTF LDLC ? IT'S BEEN 1259x that you were notified! The parcel is delivered in the original box, without any additional protection (the parcel service told me that the postal employee had not taken any precautions and had thrown the bag with the items quite heavily on the ground...) and with the item in full view at the risk of tempting theft...
- has a slight smell of heated plastic. mainly noticeable when near the device, but in the room no problem.
I give it a 3.5* because of this packaging problem which is really unacceptable.Review automatically translated -

Nickel
A bit oversized for my configuration, but I like to see far...
So I can backup my DS414 and LS-WXL70A NAS, the DGS108 swich, and the two Free_revolution_ADSL + SFR_FO boxes (total 98VA, 28 mn autonomy). There is still enough to add a load sharing router...
The USB is managed by the Synology NAS without problem. You plug it in, it's recognized in a second.
I'm not sure what to say about it, except for the non-existent LDLC packaging: original manufacturer's packaging, a bit damaged during transport but no damage inside. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to get it in the mail, but I'm sure I'll be able to get it here.
PS: no particular odours, fan a bit noisy under load.Review automatically translated -

Compliant but...
+ : Quiet inverter as I expected.
- + : the layout of the sockets is annoying when the appliances you connect to them have large transformers.
The gluing was a little light (it was sent like that without cardboard just the box of the inverter with the B.L. on it, it surprised me LDLC with whom I have never known a single faultless)Review automatically translated -

Incompatible software for IMAC
The product arrived on time at the foot of the Christmas tree.
It's my first inverter, simple to start up, it does its job perfectly. The screen is particularly useful for checking consumption, ...
The only disappointment is that the USB socket is useless for a Mac user, as the USB is not connected to the power supply.
It's a pity because I was waiting for a signal from the inverter to the Imac to trigger a "soft" shutdown in case of a power cut. So I'll wait for a hard shutdown when the UPS battery is empty.Review automatically translatedAnswer by [Eaton]: on 13 Jun 2018Hello,
For MAC users, you need to use the Power Management function of MAC directly. Our software does not allow configuration. This is a MAC choice.
Kind regards. -

product ok but unpleasant smell -> product returned
The inverter works perfectly, nothing to complain about.
But disappointed, I returned it because it has a horrible plastic / chemical smell. In short, in 1 room of 9m2, the smell does not go away (the VOC must be high), even after 1 week, the smell is still there!Review automatically translated -

Very good material but lack of documentation
On the material level, nothing to say. On the other hand, the delivery is not so good. I have to say that I'm very happy with this product, but I'm not sure I'm going to be able to get it. I'm glad I logged into my LDLC account and saw that the delivery had arrived at the collection point (La Poste). I have to say that I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the product. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use this product. I bought 2 inverters 650, 1 Pro USB and 1 Eco. I saw in the specifications that there was a PLC compatible socket but I can't tell which one. Is it battery powered or not? The first, the last? Apart from that, I'm very happy. The Eco protects my TV, my Proximus decoder, my home cinema and a switch (via a domino). The Pro, protects my modem (BBox 3) and my NAS Synology DS216 II+ connected by the USB cable provided. I tested it by removing the plugs, everything works and my NAS is warned when it goes on battery (warned by email). I'm very happy with it all in all.

Very good inverter
This is a good inverter compatible and certified with the Synology Nas. The plugs are FR standards. The 650 model offers about 45min of autonomy with a DS916+8G full disks. The protected connector is RJ11/RJ45 compatible for the tel line or a switch port. Perfect :)

Very good product
I bought 4 inverters of this model a few months ago and no problems. It is discreet, does not heat up, the display is complete. With my PC, it has an autonomy of 10 minutes for a consumption of 139 watts. I also use it on digital conversion units which do not support micro cuts with a 25 minutes autonomy.

This is the best value for money product at the moment. I bought this product after having made a complete comparison. So far the product is holding up well and gives me a battery life of over 30min for 2 cameras in PoE and a Syno server.
I hope it lasts.Review automatically translated -

Satisfactory operation
A UPS for the box, the switch, a NAS, another UPS (the same one) for a PC station, the base station of the internal telephone and the house alarm. A very satisfactory package. No more problems with power cuts....
The excess noise when switching to security is for me a plus: the device is so quiet in normal mode, one is well warned that there is a problem on the electrical network EDF or internal!!!
Very disappointed by the packaging of the product.
Indeed, only the basic packaging of the product is present; probably abused during transport, the battery door is damaged (without immediate consequence on the operation of the device).
Who is responsible: the "manly" transporter, LDLC "neglecting the packaging" or both...?Review automatically translated -

Muffler
This inverter is extremely quiet, takes up very little space, hardly heats up at all, almost perfect. Only one problem: the 3 battery-backed sockets and the surge protected socket are not the ones indicated on the manual and/or on the device itself. I think the error is due to a bad translation of the manual from Filipino, into English and then into French. It is imperative to test before plugging in, otherwise there will be surprises.

I have wired a Synology NAS (recognized immediately without problems), a switch, the PC and the screen, and the autonomy is a little over 15 minutes.
