I saw one of these at BJ's for $118.00. Anyone have opinions on it?

They also have a 500VA ES500 for $45.

Both seem like really good deals. Are they discontinued models or something?

I think that's about the normal prices for those units. Remember that the newer APC units (those included) don't compare in capacity to the older ones. For example an older Back-UPS Pro 650 would easily outlast a newer Back-UPS LS 700 runtime-wise.
