In Battery Backup (UPS)

When I saw the earlier review where, among all the other good things the reviewer had to say about this product, he registered a complaint that the accompanying software would shut the computer down during an outage without saving files, I said hmm? I've had a lower rated Cyberpower unit for several years running its Powerpanel software, and during outages it has always saved files and put the PC in hibernation. Picked up this unit for a second computer, and it operates the same way, e.g., gracefully shuts down with no loss of data for unsaved files. Perhaps the confusion comes from the software config screen, which calls it a "shut down" when it is actually putting PC into hibernation mode. (It's just a simple DOS cmd, "shutdown /h", after all)

I have used this brand before, and the batteries are interchangeable with my other UPS brands.

It works as advertised.

-Keeps my stuff powered on -Provides clean power from my somewhat dirty home outlets -USB connection for monitoring load/outages -Provides more than enough power to keep my gaming desktop and two monitors powered for about 20 minutes during power outages

Slim, Easy to Read Display

Very easy to setup, easy digital display, setup with Nas4Free and Freenas was relatively painless

Expandable, heavy duty, good interface

Was happy to find an inexpensive unit with 'shutdown' capability from a well-known company. Wanted to try Vista's higher-performance disk settings, and had read that a UPS is more or less a necessity when doing so.

It is working fine. The information displayed on the LCD is nice to know and could be important later.

Keeps my gaming PC up and running at full load when my power blips. Very nice voltage regulation. LCD is neat.

I finally got around to install the software that comes with this thing and was pleasantly surprised. It shows your current power draw on the battery-backed-up equipment, battery capacity and utility line voltage, which is more information than I was expecting. I also like that the software is available to freely download from Cyberpower's website.

-Front panel screen with info that you can cycle with one of the buttons is very handy. -Connect it to you PC and install the software for more info. You can also have it do certain things when the power goes out and how much of a wait before it acts... Basically it integrates with Windows power saving functions, the sleep time, screen off and hibernation... That sort of thing. Also shows you your power consumption and how much money it's costing to run what is connected. -Handles my Gaming PC and G-SYNC monitor for about 6-8 minutes. i7 6700k @ 5.0GHZ, ASUS MAXIMUS VIII HERO ALPHA, ASUS ROG STYRIX GTX 1080 TI Overclocked heavily, 32GB DDR4 @3200MHz, Coolermaster 360mm AIO with ARGB fans and pump head. 7 fans, 3 120mm REVEEN (yellow fin ones), 3 ARGB and controller 120mm Coolermaster on the AIO, the AIO pump, 5 HDDs - 3 Adata SU800 512GB in RAID 5, 2 - 2TB Seagate HDD 7200 rpm. Lots of external USB devices.

The SMC1000C model (600w) may be sufficient for most gaming PC's. Mine is overclocked and uses more power than most so I opted for the SMC1500C (900w) model.

Long battery life! Beeping sound alerts you immediately, even when you are not in the room. This is the second Tripp Lite ECO unit I bought. Lots of outlets on the unit for regular, battery backup and ECO power.
