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

Great unit, every so often i get bored and unplug it just so it can switch to battery power and it has done the job well. I have never seen how long it takes to fail but soon I probably will.

The software provides good, very complete information, I like the detailed performance info and good event logs, so you know at all times what is going on. Strong native Linux support, great run time. This is the UPS to live by.


This UPS was a great solution to support networking equipment (modem, router, switch) that I installed in my basement. It has lots of outlets and the size of the unit was perfect for mounting on the network wall panel.


I like the fact that I can plug my high end computer into the APC SMC1500C along with my monitor, printer and other components into it and still not having to max out the total power consumption. I like the way the screen is so I can read what I need to see the UPS is working properly.




This battery is awesome. I replaced a couple of smaller UPS's with this one in a telco closet.. love the fact that i can just plug this into our comcast business modem and it goes to the net and does it's thing in the cloud. This did come with a 20Amp plug so i had to change it over to the regular straight plug.. but you can get adapters for those.

Easy client setup, especially with the network shutdown software. Runs very quiet.


- Reliable brand, product is similarly regarded - Pretty sensitive to brownouts, so don't be surprised if it trips randomly here-and-there - Really no fuss nor nonsense with setting it up



Many things in menu, runs silent most of the time

This unit is excellent. I have owned mine for over a year. This unit features online double-conversion technology so that the electricity is always flowing through the batteries. This is good for a few reasons. First you can use it to clean the power 24/7 before it goes to your equipment. Secondly you can be assured that there is no interruption to the unit when the wall power fails as there is not a cut-over time when the unit would normally go from outlet to battery -- because the unit is always running through battery. The unit is very reliable, and supports an "eco" mode which I found used about 20 to 30 watts less an hour.

Expandable, heavy duty, good interface

Great product. Seamless switch to battery. Quality of APC for homeowners needing low watt demand. DO IT its worth it!!!! *** I have more UPCs in a commercial environment than I know what to do with.......this is in my personal residence, I know what a good UPC is.
