    Very unhappy with this APC-1500VA UPS. I've had it for 3 months and 1 day. A week ago it failed with an error code F02. No idea what caused the failure. I followed the recovery instructions, it ran for a couple more days, then the same failure code. Another reset, another 3 days and failed AGAIN yesterday. Just got off the phone with APC Service for warranty, they said the serial number I gave them was invalid so they wouldn't help me, and even if the serial number was valid, (I copied it off the serial number tag on the bottom,) the warranty period has now expired because it was received by me on Dec 30, 2025 and I've had it for over 3 months (1 day over). This is my FIRST and LAST APC unit. JUNK and only a 3 month warranty??? Doing a searching on APC 1500VA warranty says its 2 years!!! I wonder why the huge difference in warranty period??? Also, looked at negative reviews (I should have done this before the purchase) turns out the error codes F01 and F02 seem to be VERY COMMON and F02 may be accompanied with burning odors/smoke and damage to attached devices. So I have a unit that I wouldn't trust even if I could get it repaired. Maybe I can reuse the batteries since they are supposed to be new, but the rest of the UPS is worthless/trash. Good luck if you decide to buy one anyway and make sure your house fire insurance is up to date.

    • Brand response from APCProductSupport
      Posted .

      Hello,
      We do apologize about this inconvenience. We at APC by Schneider Electric value your feedback and would like to help you with this concern.

      An F02 error code displayed by the BR1500 indicates solid state component damage, i.e. a blown fuse, relay weld, etc. Please try the following steps:
      1. Remove all load from the UPS.
      2. Power cycle the UPS. Unplug the UPS from the wall, unplug the battery.
      3. Plug the battery and UPS back in and turn it back on.

      If the fault returns, then the UPS will need to be replaced.

      You mentioned the UPS is 3 months old, so it should still be under factory warranty. Factory warranty coverage is 3 years from purchase date. Be sure to ;provide a valid proof of purchase so warranty dates can be updated.

      Please let us know if you still need any additional assistance. Contact our Technical Support Hotline at 1-800-800-800-4272 or chat with us at APC by Schneider Electric.

      Callback at Phone - 800-555-2725 and follow the prompts.

      For immediate assistance, contact our chat support agents at https://www.apc.com/us/en/tools/chat/ or visit www.apc.com for product specifics and basic troubleshooting. APC

    I bought this UPS to power some of our network equipment, so far so good. Oeveo makes a sweet wall mount that fits like a glove. This is my second of the same unit, no complaints thus far.

    It turned out to be a bit bigger than I needed, but that just means it will power my system for that much longer. The USB connection and monitoring software work great.

    Living in California with PG&E is like living with a third world power grid -- probably because they spend so much for new trucks or lawsuits instead of upgrading the power grid-- in my humble opinion. I purchased several of these units to protect my office and home equipment. I am glad I did. The power in my neighborhood is constantly browning out or shutting down. These units have worked when PG&E didn't.

    Great product with ample outlets. I use it to primarily back up Dell Alienware 17R5 and 42 inch LG 4K and Dell Alienware Desktop. Just plug in and go.

    This model costs a little more than the next model down, but for me was well worth it. The additional outlets and the stand-alone on/off feature are why I chose this model.

    Used to buy APC products a couple decades ago. I then switched over to CyberPower units and was very pleased with them. When my CyberPower 1500VA unit started to become a little noisy, decided to replace it. Could not find another 1500VA in stock, so decided to go back to APC. So far, like pretty much everything about this APC 1500. Seems to work fine ... but the actual test will be when I actually NEED it! That hasn't happened yet. The ONLY thing I dislike about this APC (vs my older CyberPower) is the self-test, which occurs every 2 weeks. This is not configurable. Would have given the product 5-stars if it were. I doubt if these self-tests will have any effect on unit or battery life ... but would like to be able to configure when I want the tests to occur, based on what I am doing.

    A lot of discussion about whether these work or not, this one works well and haven't had a problem with it. Its not the high end server model type but good for a workstation or network closet.
