Never ever again, failures all over the place
- Pros: Units were priced well for 1250VA, but now I know why. Did not buy this from newegg but is the exact model number and is brand new.
- Cons: Purchased 5 of them, and all 5 of them most of the time intermittently fails on equal but different PCs to switch to battery BU quick enough to keep my computers from rebooting, monitor flashed out, CTR500 router rebooted, or anything I put on it. Tech support spends more time trying to find a reason why they should not support it than support you. They are trying to blame it on my EA-500D Antec power supply being an efficient power supply, but it rebooted my CRT500 cell router, my monitor flashed out, etc you name it. Tech told me that electronics is not a good way to measure the performance and we need to try a light bulb. Put a 60 watt incandescent light bulb on it, for the tech, and when pulled AC source, the bulb flickered and dimmed. Tech says, "Ok it works". I was shocked he said that. I bought this thing for a PC and electronics backup, not a light bulb backup. So far they are refusing to take any responsibility for the failures.
- Other Thoughts: Anyone owning this should pull the plug on their unit after the UPS and computer has been idle over night. Repeat this multiple days and you will probably find the reliability failures.
When I test these five units, I allow the entire system, UPS and PC to remain online, and idle for overnight. I then pull the AC source power on the BN1250LCD and of course it fails to switch quick enough on the 1 to 4 times I do this in a row. After I do that multiple times in a row, anywhere from 1 to 4 times, then the BN1250LCD begins to work properly, keeping the my equipment up without rebooting. However if you let it sit another few hours or overnight and try again the failures repeat and then works again after a few initial failures. Point is what good is a backup if it fails the initial time and you lose the power source. You need it to work on the 1st power failure and thereafter as well.
Smooth, Solid, Stable
- Pros: Displays power consumption in realtime; LED light-up time customizeable; power management software integrates with XP/Vista; large, bright red LED screen.
- Cons: Heavy, long body, outlets on back means smaller space to organize plugs; large plugs will need some arrangement/extensions
- Other Thoughts: If you have to get this much power, this UPS is a decent bet: it's cheaper than business/professional systems, but still provides enough watts. I bought this to work with a poorly overloaded room and a demanding gaming PC. It's smoothed out and quieted the power problems I was having, and being able to watch consumption as I game has been very useful. Kudos for the display being so easy to read.

Unexplained failure
- Pros: LCD nice, software is okay.
- Cons: 1. High pitched pulsing whine, just loud enough to hear over the hum of six computers nearby. I had to stack boxes in front of the side facing me and turn it to the side (not on its side, of course) to stop hearing the noise.
2. Failed after 1.5 years with very little plugged into it. To its credit, it started beeping afterward, as if in shame. After that the battery would seem okay for for a few days, then it would say the battery was nearly dead, then back to okay. APC software was consistent in saying "Battery needs to be replaced" but it claimed battery disconnected, when clearly this was not the case. Power was not out, as a machine without UPS on the same set of outlets was still on. Nor does this suggest a significant power surge, as again, the other machine would have rebooted or been off.

Good if nothing goes wrong
- Pros: The UPS itself is laid out well and the LCD is nice (a quick way to check its various status'). Battery backup always worked (however not its surge suppression-see below). Small size with a replaceable battery.
- Cons: Worst customer service I've ever encountered. The box was all marked up with this warranty and that warranty. I did everything including register per their instruction and set the unit per their instruction. I had a power surge which killed my new mobo and 19' LCD one day (also killed my DSL modem which was hooked up). I then filed a claim and was told to ship the unit to Rhode Island ($35 shipping for a claim that was only $200). I was told wait 7 days until after they receive it and then they'll send me a letter via snail mail if I get the claim or not.
Its been over two weeks since they received it (supposed to take 7 days for testing) and when I called them today they said that know they don't know how long it will take now before they get started and that they haven't even begun testing it yet.
- Other Thoughts: I was sent a temporary replacement while I shipped out mine for claim. The one I got smelled like fish (no kidding) and the front with the LCD was loose. I had to replace the replacement (another week of waiting) and now I'm in the limbo as to when they will decide to test my dang unit in Rhode Island. I'm just lucky I use this at home and not in a business. I only have a part time job (student) so every little bit of money I spend is a fortune. I regret spending a penny on this company and will never buy from them again.
