V70-700 vs Eaton SMART750LCDNC
Both are 120 V line-interactive UPS for network closets, AV, retail and security equipment. The Eaton SMART750LCDNC is a 2U rack/tower unit with cloud monitoring and eight outlets. The Xtreme Power V70-700 fits the same job in 1U, runs 4.5 times longer at full load, recharges faster, comes with a 10 ft right-angle cord and wall-mount brackets, is TAA compliant, and costs less.
What the V70-700 brings
- 1U instead of 2U: half the rack space
- 4.5 min at full load vs 1 min
- 13 min at half load vs 7 min
- Faster recharge: 4–6 h vs under 8 h
- 10 ft right-angle cord vs 5 ft
- Rack, wall or tower, brackets included
- TAA compliant as standard
- A lower price point

Eaton figures from Eaton’s SMART750LCDNC product page, checked October 2026; confirm against current Eaton documentation. Eaton’s specifications list 0–40 °C. Eaton carries a higher connected-equipment insurance limit. Runtime figures are approximate and vary with battery age, temperature and load.
Choosing between them
Both protect the same kinds of loads. The V70-700 wins where rack space, runtime and cost matter, or where procurement requires TAA compliance; it also mounts on a wall. The SMART750LCDNC suits buyers who want cloud monitoring and bank-level outlet control out of the box, two more outlets, a slightly shallower chassis or a larger insurance policy.
Choose the V70-700 if you need
- 1U instead of 2U
- Much longer runtime at full and half load
- Wall mounting and a 10 ft right-angle cord
- TAA compliance and a lower price
The SMART750LCDNC may fit if you need
- Cloud monitoring and switchable load banks included
- Eight outlets
- A larger connected-equipment insurance policy
- An existing Eaton deployment standard
