In Power Protection

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.

Nicely laid out with plenty of space for power bricks. Long cord.

The new digital readouts are a huge help in deciding when to power down after long blackouts. Very attractive and heavy-duty case. Seems to run cool. I have one UPS in my attic running my internet, satellite multi-switch, wireless router and network hard drive. The living room UPS has kept power to my 32" Sony TV, DirecTV Tivo unit, DVD Player running for around 20 minutes. I decided to power down the TV after 20 minutes because the digital readout showed 25%. The Tivo unit was able to continue recording our shows with the left over power. The unit is very heavy which is good for a UPS.

- 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.

Easy set up for a NAS backup power supply....just plug in and energize.

Does exactly what it suppose to do. I live in a camper and have had a few power surges, with several thousand dollars worth of electronics. All still working with no issues.

-Bulky and heavy, I can store other small object on top of it easily like a small switch and a raspberry pi without worrying about knocking it over -UPS seems to work as advertised, unplugged it with all my devices connected and it keeps them powered with about 28 minutes of battery life at full charge -Simple display screen to monitor wattage draw, battery life remaining, etc.

ECO options alows powered external drives and accessories to power up and down automatically as computer asserts USB. Removes need for another switched power bar. MacOS 10.14 automagically discovered UPS and Power Saver preference pane configured it. LCD display offers interesting info on service entrance power. It is easy to estimate run time in a power outage situation. Convenient “power brick” compatible outlets. Stable physical configuration, think sow height versus vertical integration. It is possible to redefine the voltage limits that define UPS mode.

Easy to set up and use.
