I love the 900W rating on this unit as it allows my HP LaserJet to be on the battery side and not overdraw the unit like my old APC 1500 did (only 800W I think). Also the 2 front USB ports work nicely for an iPod or Smartphone to charge.
Will keep two gaming computers powered on during an outage. Nice display Easy to setup
Powerful, well made and with numerous outlets and great features
Easy set up for a NAS backup power supply....just plug in and energize.
Low budget, inexpensive, effective UPS. Integrates nicely with software for Windows-based PC's
Bought this for the small footprint as it needed to sit in a small space. It was exactly what I was looking for and keeps my Fiber modem and ethernet adapter running for many hours. I like that you can disable the alarm easily and that it was very straightforward to hook up and power on.
Easy setup Clean looking Easy management
- Arrived well-before suggested delivery date. - Well-packaged to prevent any damage. - Set-up was easy with minimal, but very good instructions. - It has been in use for almost two weeks, and there have been no electrical incidents where the backup needed to turn on, so . . . will need to wait to comment on reliability. - Connected to the Back-UPS 1500 are an iMac with two ext HDD's, a Mac mini M2 Pro w/ 4TB of SSD, a studio monitor, and an OWC mini stack STX with a 4 TB HDD and 4 TB of SSD.
- Compact - Easy to set up
The size is great, not too big.
Excellent UPS system that has long battery life has saved my data during storms & several power outages.
good price for pure sine wave simple operation
Using this battery for the HDTV, Uverse box, and stereo equipment with very common brown-outs in our area. This gives me time to shut down the TV and stereo properly instead of crashing everything. Not even a hiccup during momentary power losses.
Lightweight Small footprint
My last APC purchase was many years ago and that unit lasted way past the rated replacement date. So when I went shopping they were my first choice. I hope the new builds are as good as quality as the one I had before. The new one is a larger unit and the nice feature I like is that I can see how many watts are being drawn when I plug something in so this device is also being used as a watt meter at times. A few dollars I've always meant to spend on a watt meter no longer needing to be spent. The other feature I like compared to my older unit is that I can turn off beeps. I don't want a noise telling me the power is out when I'll already know that has happened.
Been waiting for a storm to submit a review. This unit maintained my internet connection during a Tornado Warning and subsequent power outage. I love it!
Very small footprint - will fit in a 12" deep wall mount rack with room to spare for power cords. The LCD display on the front was more useful than I thought and it's easy to read and not overly bright. Excellent runtime.
Works as described, costs less than other brands for the same output.
