Reliable in an outage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm actually currently looking at 100 kVA UPS's. In the meantime until we replace our 150 kVA with a 100 I'm spot covering devices with APC thowdown UPS's and with that I sleep well at night in a 24/7 failure is not an option industry.

Solid Home UPS
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does the trick and usually offers around 5-8 minutes of playtime for a gaming computer if you have short power outages.

DO NOT BUY THIS!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Undoubtedly the worst UPS purchase I have ever made! The unit failed twice in the first month, and of course it was after Best Buy’s very short return period. So I contacted APC. They told me to turn it off when I left the house. That’s utterly ridiculous advice for a UPS, the purpose of which is to keep power on. APC refused to honor the warranty until I threatened to write their corporate headquarters, and then they only agreed to send a battery. Never again will I purchase any APC/Schneider Electric products, and I will be very careful what I purchase from Best Buy.

Good so far. But it's definitely not a 5 star prod
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems to work so far except for 1) I don't know if it's my power Co. But it keeps turning on and displaying the power input to be 40VAC. 2) When I took the side off to hook up the battery the side came off just hine. But it will not go back on. Seems like the frame has been bent slightly .

Great Power Backup unit!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works Great & plenty of outlets. The slight tilt of the dispkay screen makes it easy to see if unit is on the floor.

APC 1500 UPS Back Up Battery failure
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Battery operated for 2 months, then went to run on battery power when there was no outage and into permanent FO2 mode where alarm won't stop. Best Buy past return period, their service department was NOT helpful. Called APC support and they WERE very helpful. Sending a replacment battery. Assuming new battery works longer term, I will update the review.

Easy set up!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just wanted a new battery back up for the office. Hardest part was switching all the plugs over. Very easy to set up and I get updates from the program ! And the two additional plugs were great!

Bad switches spoil a good product
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've purchased three of this model in the last 12 months. They aren't as good as they used to be. APC must have changed suppliers for their switches as they are all junk now. Every one of the three I've purchased have the same problem. They power up fine on initial use, but if you power the unit down after a few hours, a few days or a few weeks, the units will not power up again. To get the power switch to function you have to unplug the unit, remove the battery and hold down the power switch for about 5-10 seconds, then put the battery back in and reconnect everything and power up. You have to do this EVERY time after powering down. This is ridiculous.

Power button dead
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this system a month ago not to mention I have done got 2 more for a warranty through APC. The reason is bc the Sys would run great turn it off at night get up turn it on in the morning power button will not turn unit on at all. Not to mention this last one keeps clicking and their is not even a load on it. Got another APC same unit same identical thing happen power button dead. Soooo got another warranty and they sent me a sinwave unit well power button is working fine but when I do a test the test fails computer seems like it shuts down when Back-UP is on battery. So calling APC back Monday and see what they tell me. I am hoping my 4th unit will be awesome with no issues.

Good capacity, but doesn't give clean power
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It doesn't offer a true sine wave which means a lot of devices will power cycle when you lose power.

Posted .Thank you for taking the time to review our UPS. The UPS would produce a step approximate sine wave while on battery but usually equipment can handle this. If you equipment needs a pure sine wave both on and off battery I recommend checking out our BR1500MS which would be a pure sine wave both on and off battery. Our SmartUPS products would also output a pure sine wave on and off battery.
