A great product -- easy to set up out of the box and the menu screen has great summary information. Liked it so much I bought a second CP1500PFCLCD.
These are the best made UPS systems out there. I've used CyberPower and all of the other trash systems. Nothing compares to APC. Always get at least 1000VA. No matter what the on-line tools tell you, that's the minimum for a computer and monitor. Those lesser VA units are for stand-alone things like a router.
My+ old one died same modlue have had good service
- small size makes it easier to run it in the home office and keeps the wife happy - works out of the box, no issues with setup - nice price point
Works as expected. keeps my devices running long enough for temporary power outages or for me to shut things down if I need to.
It is an APC! 'Nuff said. It has proven itself several times so far. We've had a few storms cause chaos with the power here this year. This unit keeps my PC with two 27" monitors up for :10-15, when necessary. It then gracefully shuts down the computer.
Easy setup Clean looking Easy management
- No fan noise - Long battery life - Easy to setup - LCD Display turns off when not in use - True sinewave - Smaller package than my other older UPS with more power. - Energy Star Rated
Well packed manufacturer packaging. Very clear multi-lingual user manual that is well worth the time reading the few pages in your chosen language. Very clear warning markers attached to UPS. Very difficult to install and use this unit without seeing the warning marker to connect the internal batteries. Silent operation; it does not have any fans on/in it that I can tell. Novel "master slave" outlet pairing. Lose power to the "master" device and the "slave" device turns off immediately. The manual tells me this feature is disabled by default, but read the user manual carefully to fully understand it's operation.
Easy to set up provides plenty of power outlets battery backup for PC, Monitor, Internet Router, wireless router downloadable monitoring software (using USB connection from UPS to PC) Keeps everything protected and running through brief power outages or spikes
It's compact, powerful, it's made by APC (Schneider Electric), and is perfect for PC / HS applications.
- 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.
This is the first time I have purchased a Cyberpower UPS. I have seen great reviews on some of their other products, and this model supports an Active PFC power supply which was key for my situation. The LCD display and active monitoring software is a plus.
I'm using it to keep large led TV and cable box surge protected and running during blackouts until whole house generator kicks in.
Delivery made rather than planned. Excellent
- Works perfect - Quiet
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!
