Has Pure Sine Wave, great backup for a computer.

I cannot believe how quickly the UPS was shipped and arrived!

Best value in the $100 to $300 price range. Set Up Time: As fast as you can plug it in Newegg Beat all other competitor's online prices Runs quietly Normal expected heat generation Has 2 USB Charge Ports: (1 USB-A 2.4A, 1 USB-C 15W) ( A lot of competitor's have 0 in this price range or use older tech) Has 12 Outlets while some competitor's only have 10

Easy to set up and use.


Plenty of power in this unit. And the best price I could find on the internet. Has a full Gigabit throughput on Ethernet surge circuit....that is why I purchased this unit.


Easy setup Clean looking Easy management

Have purchased several APC UPS products in the past and I was not disappointed with this model. Like the small foot prInt with the outlets located on top. Working great so far.

Haven't had this for very long but so far it works great. In Florida we are the lightning capitol of the world, and this is almost mandatory if you spend any time at all on the computer. We get frequent power interruptions that last anywhere from a few minutes to hours and this can save a lot of work from being lost.

Instructions were perfect.


I bought this unit to replace an older CyberPower 600w unit I had bought from Newegg in July of 2010 to protect my TV and other equipment (computer is on another unit). The primary reason I did was because the old one, which was a nasty square wave unit, would cause my components to emit a "buzz", and I do believe that it damaged some of my equipment (which the manufacturer replaced, not CyberPower). Anyway these units were not out then and the only solution was an expensive APC or TrippLite unit. But fast forward to now and CyberPower has these "Pure Sine Wave" (actually Adaptive Sine Wave, a sawtooth or triangle waveform, not sine) for a good price, so I decided now was a good time to replace both units (see my CyberPower 810w Pure Sine Wave UPS review later in the week). First thing I did was plug in my radio and DVR, both of which on my old CP unit would emit a bad buzz and the front displays would slowly pulse bright and dim, and run it on battery power. No buzz, no pulsing display. Battery run time seems to be about right, ~30 minutes on a 90w load (tested, ~75w load which is my TV at 0% backlight and satellite receiver, simulating a power outage during a thunderstorm so I can watch the weather). The display is also much improved on this version, a nice white on black as opposed to a blue on blue, much more readable. Also it has the ability to always have the LCD display on (using a P3 Kill-A-Watt using the LCD display uses 1w of power).

- Quiet quiet quiet - Screen has lots of info and is easy to understand - Lights aren't too bright - More outlets than I could ever need

Operated exactly as advertised. This review unit arrived with excellent timing. The day after I installed it the power here went out for over an hour with several outages the following week! Not only did the BU 600 keep my cable modem, gigabit switch and a high end router running without missing a beat, I was even able to keep my phone charging. Estimated run time with the new battery and minimalist load was 3 hours+. Of course age reduces the battery capacity, but if you use this product in your server room, it will keep your web connections and routers running like nothing happened for at least 60+ minutes Management software is a free download. The unit was detected on my win7/64 laptop USB and windows drivers installed, and then I installed the APC software. No eyebrow raisers there. Wall mounting holes a nice touch. USB charge port @ 1.5amps shows engineers are listening to customers. I'm seeing this all over the business lately. I just bought a nice desk lamp that has a USB charge port on it.

Easy to set up, compatible with linux. The mfgr-supplied linux app works fine. Will run a fully loaded quad-core system and monitor for 5-10 minutes, less power-hungry machines for 30-60 minutes, easily long enough for an orderly shutdown. The units are attractive and surprisingly compact. I purchased three to protect some linux servers and workstations.

CyberPower UPS systems work well in just about any application. The batteries are replaceable, which is a requirement for me. I support home and SMB networks, where a single low-cost CyberPower UPS can power several servers and shut them down appropriately. Unlike APC, which only provides network shutdown features at higher price points, CyberPower makes their PowerPanel Business Edition software available as a free download, which enables you to set up alerting and unattended shutdown for any Windows or Linux box on your network, so in this way the server can alert the workstations and shut them down, even if the workstations are only connected to "dumb" UPS power units. Leave the big data centers to APC. If you support home or SMB networks, CyberPower is the only way to go.

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!

- 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.

Can handle demanding load Easy setup Good customer support Easy tracking of power usage
