Customer Ratings & Reviews

Have a few of these now, and they work great for my 3D printer and PC. Gives me enough time to get things paused if needed.

This is a must have battery backup, especially for those with a home office. I’ve experienced two power outages recently and this batter backup kept my modem and router running for hours so I could keep working. I will be ordering another soon for my other office equipment. Highly recommended!!!

This is the king of UPS battery backups!! I lost power one day after i turned this up and it kept all my electronics up with no issues. Great battery strength held up 3 monitors, a desktop, and 2 laptops running for at least 30 minutes. More than enough time to safely backup up my work and power down.

Security! That’s how I would describe this item! It protects all my devices and keeps them powered in case of an outage and with the optional data cable it can power off my server safely if I lose power

Last 20min on a draw of nearly 400w, good ui,easy to use.

Great for protecting your equipment from power surges and some cool extra features; track how many voltage is coming from the wall outlet and prompts you a time on how long you have when the backup battery kicks in.

APC The BN 1500VA has been operating as expected including about 4 utility power outages, for 2 years. APC has been my decades long choice of UPSs..

Can’t live without my APC UPS. I only buy APC units. I trust them not only for surge protection, but also because the power in my Neighborhood frequently goes out. The software has never failed to shut down my workstation during these events. I like being able to monitor the fluctuations as well.

It works well for the most part, but the first time I had a power glitch (one of those little quick off and on's), it totally shut down. Had I been using my computer at the time, it could have caused a real problem. Rep said it was probably just a one-time occurrence. Time will tell.

Does what you expect it to. I appreciate the display and functionality. I can’t really expect more from a batter backup than doing what it’s supposed to! Last night power went out while we were sleeping. Woke up partway through the outage and our home server was still on allowing me to power it off gracefully.

Trusted brand and I have used these for years with great satisfaction in performance.

I measured the voltage on this and was delighted it was matching my multimeter. Many other brands to do. Hopefully this will be a good performer as time marches on. Plenty of outlets on the back and the USB on the front will come in handy when power does out, to keep the cellphone alive. Confident, I would purchase another without question.

Nice product, reasonable price, good availability from Best Buy. Easy setup. Everything works so far. Showing 35 minutes of backup power with cable modem, router, PC and home security system all plugged in and running, good enough for our needs. Recommended.

Normally, these are used for computers to keep them on longer - however, i've been using these for my Cable Modem and Router inside my house. It helps to keep my internet working during power outages so the kids can keep school going on their iPAD's and laptops. Little life hack for difficult Covid school @ home times...

I've used various UPS's over the years for by various computer and audio systems, but have settled on APC and in particular this unit for my fairly demanding computers and server (each system on its own UPS). The software leaves a little to be desired, but in the end, the software tools really don't get much use and perform a pretty simple job.

Great UPS, easy to set up and work with. I purchased it for use at my office, and it works great.

So I buy these regularly for work, dozens per year. The 1500 series is still worth replacing batteries once they wear down after 2-3 years of mild use. Heavy use in bad power environments gets you less battery life but that is to be expected. This is cheap insurance for your high dollar electronics - highly recommend!

This unit has a constant, high-pitched whine that never goes away even at full battery power, on or off battery, and only changes pitch slightly (but still audible) when the LCD screen is on. When unplugging the unit, the whine continues for a while, suggesting it's somehow related to the battery. For my use, it was under my desk and still very audible, so all the marketing materials showing it on top of a desk (which would presumably be closer to the user) and considering the overall high rating from many users, it makes me wonder if not all the units exhibit this whine (QC issue?) or if the frequency is not audible to everyone, or both. However, further reading and research shows plenty of other users have had this same issue, unfortunately. I have always, exclusively used APC UPS for the smaller units (900 VA and lower) and have been happy with the brand overall. This is the largest I've purchased, but I had to return it and go with a different brand. Just couldn't take the whining sound in general use, even with other white noise in the room. And didn't want to try a different one of the same model because of reading others' experiences with the whining. If it wasn't for the whining sound, this unit is good. The LCD is bright and the unit seemed to function well for the 48 hours I used it. Socket locations in the back are fine, plenty of cord length, easy access to battery, front panel access for USB connections. CONS: -High-pitch whining sound that never stops PROS: -Bright, functional LCD screen -Number of sockets -Easy battery access, user-replaceable -Front panel access for USB and USB-C -Cord length Despite having good experiences overall with APC and definitely recommending the brand in general, I cannot recommend this particular unit because of that one, very annoying flaw.

APC is a brand I’ve trusted for a long time, and that co times with this unit. Efficient, good number of plugs, easy to read display. I.n the short time I’ve had it, there have been 3 small outages and this kept everything protected as it should.

Always best to protect your electronics from surges, and here in Florida they are all too common. APC makes a great product. This one is for the TV and stereo and Blu-ray, no movie interruptions for those power blinks. Been buying APC for many years and they are consistently of exceptional quality.
