Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you live in an area with Brown-outs or Black-outs, or trees near powerlines, this is perfect. Completing your 300th playthrough of Skyrim, and you have neglected to save in 2 hours? The power goes out, the the LEDs on your ceiling go from their signature Purple to black. Your mom screams at you dad, "THE POWER IS OUT AGAIN!" Meanwhile, you are still playimg Skyrim, and remember you haven't saved. You save the game, you power off your PC, and you see you still have 17 minutes of charge left. You smile, knowing you saved yourself from replaying hours of work. All of this was possible due to your battery backup that your mom said was "A waste of money."

This unit provides plenty of power to keep your systems running during power outages. With my modem/router, desktop computer and monitor powered up I get over 90 minutes of backup. With just the router on I can maintain internet connectivity to my tablets and phones for almost 4 hours during an outage.

My custom tower PC is the heart of my system, oversize high rez monitor, a couple of scanners, tethered DSLR from my DIY optical bench, etc. So right in the middle of backing up my 10TB RAID storage ~ over into the external {branded} backup 10TB RAID ~ the power into my house popped with an audible snap and went dead. Q.E.D. my decision could no longer be put off! This APC UPS represents the 'sweet spot' for my technology and my budget. It is exactly as advertised and perfectly suited. Not only did it pass all its internal tests and features, I did my shade tree mechanic test and just jerked the plug out of the wall. My system didn't even know about it! Just kept purring along sweetly and gave me generous time to do an organized apps quit, files saved, and normal shutdown. Now, this old buzzard can relax and not worry about the next tree to fall, lines shorted, and utility transformer a mile away blowing up like the Martians have attacked. I recommend it to anyone who wants to ease back and be tranquil.

This unit is a lot better than the smaller one i used to have. I love how it shows the battery status and how much power is being pulled into the unit.

Quality UPS, easy to install both hardware and software. Powered off without explanation after 6 months of use, but currently working fine, otherwise 5 stars.

Easy setup. I've got it hooked up to my 34 inch monitor and HP desktop machine. Also, a router. It is displaying only 20% load. I tested it out by flipping the circuit breaker and it worked fine. Displays the approximate amount of time you have based on load when power is cut. The beeper is nice to have and can be easily shut off from the front.

If you, like me, live in an area where the electrical grid can be, let's say, a tad "iffy" in high winds or a thunderstorm of some intensity (you should see the fireworks I've witnessed from impromptu transformer explosions, above- *and* below-ground), and if you happen to have all sorts of expensive items plugged in (computers/peripherals, audio/video gear, Et Cetera), you might want to check out an Uninterruptible Power Supply (or UPS for short…has nothing to do with the folks in brown trucks delivering stuff like this to your door) such as this. It comes in especially handy when you're two-thirds through (a) your fourth draft of the manuscript of the novel that everyone will *hopefully* remember you by, (b) that YouTube video that everyone will *hopefully* remember you by, or (c) that heavily-photoshopped image that maybe more than a handful of people will remember you by (hopefully not for the wrong reasons). If you happen to lose power to the computer you're slinging all this wonderfulness out on, the UPS will kick in, keeping things powered-up just long enough for you to save your work at a given stage, close your apps, and shut everything down. For the money being asked for this thing, consider it cheap insurance. Recommended.

It works who is supposed to be, I like how it works.

The APC - Back-UPS Pro BN 1500VA is an exceptional choice for anyone seeking reliable power backup. Its 1500VA capacity ensures that your devices stay powered during outages, providing peace of mind and seamless operation. The unit is remarkably easy to set up, and its user-friendly interface makes managing your backup power needs a breeze. Additionally, its compact design allows it to fit easily into any workspace without taking up too much room. With its consistent performance and robust build quality, this APC model proves to be a valuable investment for both home and office use. Highly recommended for its dependability and efficiency.

Easy to set up. Works as intended. Straight forward like all other APC units.

Works as described. Fast delivery. Battery came fully charged. Have not had a power failure yet, so, no longevity test. It did work without hesitation when I pulled the power plug. My other APC units of the same size have lasted many years without fail. I expect the same from this unit.

No better peace of mind to have during a storm than an APC Back-UPS Pro 1500 VA tower.

It is a UPS. It works fine. So far, so good. What else can I say?

Good power backup for my vending machines and surge protection too.

Well built product works as described. Haven't had any issues, nor have i noticed not work.

Does exactly as I need. Peace of mind for sensitive electronics.

So far it's been solid and reliable. I've had a lot of brown-outs and 3 or 4 blackouts due to storms and this unit lets me safely finish what I'm working on and shut down my PC. I was a little put off that the batteries had to be connected before plugging it in, but after doing that it's been a great product.

We replaced an older back up tower that was no longer working. This one works well and gives us peace of mind.

Perfect. Wabted something to run my Starlink when the power goes out.

This UPS has paid for itself now. With power fluctuations being regular in my area lately I've hooked it to my TV, Blu-Ray, and sound bar. I see it come on regularly. The front face indicators are excellent to tell you when a power event is in progress; even a small one. It's powered my TV and Blu-Ray for over an hour in an actual outage.
