Protect your office or entertainment equipment with this CyberPower LX1500GU 1500VA battery back-up system, which enables safe shutdown in the event of a power failure and features AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation) to provide consistent power levels.

  • 890-joule rating: Absorbs a high amount of energy to adequately protect your equipment and prolong the life of the unit.
  • 10 surge-protected outlets: Include 5 with battery backup and 2 widely spaced outlets to protect the equipment in your home office.
  • Data line protection: Halts power surges in your phone, coaxial and Ethernet line. Two 5V, 2.1-amp USB ports make it easy to safely charge compatible devices, such as tablets, cell phones, cameras and MP3 players.
  • GreenPower UPS Bypass design: Enables stable power to bypass the power supply's transformer for minimized energy consumption, noise and heat buildup. Ultraquiet design hushes operational noise.
  • AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation): Automatically regulates low voltages and overvoltage, within defined tolerances, for clean, consistent AC power.
  • Line Interactive topology: Utilizes an autotransformer to regulate low-voltage situations, such as brownouts, and overvoltages, without switching to battery power.
  • Simulated sine wave output: With pulse wave modulation generates a stepped, approximated sine wave for efficient power.
  • PowerPanel Personal Edition software: Offers a user-friendly dashboard interface that allows you to easily control and monitor the power supply.
  • Multifunction LCD: Displays immediate, detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions, showing you potential problems before they can harm critical equipment.
  • ENERGY STAR certified: Designed to use less energy and meets strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the Environmental Protection Agency and U.S. Department of Energy.

Q: How many hours can you get use out of it

A: Don't expect any miracles. These units are designed to get you through a power failure with some additional time to allow you to do a safe shutdown. That will deteriorate with battery age. The more equipment you have on it the shorter the run time. The display along with beeps keeps you alerted to whatever runtime is left. It takes a long time to completely charge a battery that has been totally discharged. Don't get me wrong these units do a great job but don't think they are going to run for hours during a power failure.

Q: can you change the battery in 1500va battery back up system

A: This has 2 user replaceable batteries.

Q: My iMac desktop is plugged into an 11 year old GeekSquad 1500VA UPS. Power went off, the screen went black then came on a split second later at the login screen. Is this normal for UPS? What does uninterrupted really mean? I'm puzzled!

A: No this is not normal. Uninterrupted means there is a battery inside that keeps power into whatever you have plugged into it. The length of time it continues to provide power depends on a number of things, but most should provide at a minimum 15 minutes for you to save what you are working on and shutdown the computer safely. I would say yours is bad especially if it is 11 years old. Batteries do not last forever and it is either time to replace the batteries in the UPC you have or buy a new one, which would be the wise choice as battery technology is much better today than it was 11 years ago.

Q: How long will the battery last when two units are plugged in? total wattages on this two units its 560w?

A: Hello Abraham, This UPS is able to provide you with approximately 8 to 9 minutes of power with a 560w load. Thank you for your question.

Q: Would this be suitable to use as a battery backup for a wood pellet stove?

A: I don't see why it would not technically work. Since wood pellet stoves consume such low amount of energy (for the blower I assume) it should not be a problem from the power. HOWEVER, I would be concerned that batteries and heat sources are not really friends. If you did use it for this purpose I would be consider how close it is to the fire. The unit already gets quite warm in normal operation. Personally I would not do it.

Q: Does this have an internal fan? If so, how loud is it? I don't like noise.

A: I have never found any of these to be noisy. Mine sits under my desk and the only noise is when there is a power outage. Then it beeps to let you know.
