About This Item

A mini-tower UPS with line interactive topology, the CyberPower LX1500GU3 provides battery backup (using simulated sine wave output) and surge protection for desktop computers, workstations, networking equipment, smart home devices, and home entertainment systems. The LX1500GU3 uses Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, which extends battery life. AVR is essential in areas where power fluctuations occur frequently. The LX1500GU3 features an advanced multifunction control panel with a color LCD to quickly confirm status and alerts at-a-glance. Two USB charge ports (one Type-A and one Type-C) power portable devices such as mobile phones and tablets, even during a utility power failure. The LX1500GU3 comes with a three-year warranty (including coverage of batteries) and a $500,000 Connected Equipment Guarantee.

  • Battery backup: Supplies power long enough for equipment to properly shut down when utility power fails. Helps prevent loss of data and minimizes the component stress caused by a hard shutdown.
  • Surge protection: Diverts excess voltage away from sensitive electronic equipment during an AC power surge or power spike to prevent damage.
  • Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR): Increases the AC power and maintains a safe voltage level without switching to battery mode and conserves battery life.
  • USB Charge Ports: Rapidly charge and power USB devices whether the UPS is providing utility or battery backup power.
  • Multifunction LCD: Displays immediate, detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions.The color display quickly alerts users to potential problems before they can affect critical equipment and cause downtime.
