Yes, mine did just that last year. Popped during a power outage, they gave me a new one, no questions asked... So they probably know about this?

- smcleod 4y agoDid it cause a fire?
- willis936 4y agoI had one pop on me during a power outage a few months ago. I was quite miffed. The only halfway decent looking UPSes have annoyingly loud fans on them. Still, the fans probably prevent the thermal issues.
- partiallypro 4y agoWhen you say pop, what does that entail? Did it spark up and start a fire. Did it just smoke? I think that's an important distinction. Did it just stop working (as if lightning had ran in on it like you'd get on an unprotected device?) I don't care if the device fails at some point, I am much much more worried about it starting a fire.
