    Disappointing product

    I purchased this product in Sept. 2024 and it has been a considerable disappointment. I own 5 other APC UPS products and none have performed like this piece of junk. When an occasional power fluctuation occurs, the unit typically reports an F02 error and the battery does not take over. The unit's alarm sounds until the unit is unplugged and the power button is held down. After plugging the unit back into an active power outlet, and pressing the power button, the unit is back to normal operation. I do not trust this product and have wasted my money. From what I have read, this is a problem common to this unit. Schneider Electric should be ashamed.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about our BN1500M2 UPS. I am sorry to hear of the issues you are facing and apologize for any inconvenience it has caused.

      The F02 is an error due to an overload state of UPS. It triggers and cuts off power to load to prevent thermal runaway. If removing load does not fix issue it is not advisable to power on UPS and it should be replaced.

      Make sure to check equipment rated consumption is not exceeding recommended load of UPS for this unit it is less than 900 W sustained and reactive power is 1500VA which it could not sustain for long. Please also allow buffer for in rush current for high powered power supply and inductive load.

      If load is low but fault does not clear possible cause is short circuit on load or internals of UPS or possibly component damage.

      This UPS would come with a 3 year warranty. At your earliest convenience please reach out to APCbySchneider to troubleshoot the issue further. We offer email and chat services through our support site and you may also contact us directly at 800-800-4272 option 4 or visit https://www.se.com/us/en/work/support/ and look for the chat icon available from 8AM-8PM EST APC

    I used to live in an area with regular lightening storms, and power fluctuations killed a lot of my electronics. Now, all of my electronics are plugged into one of these. And it has probably saved my gear dozens of times over the last few years.

    Quality product!! Easy to setup, just connect the battery and plug-in. UPS/Surge Protectors are a must have for peace of mind. I have my PC, two monitor’s, Tv, Ethernet, and VR and the load capacity is no issue. Recommend!

    My previous ups died and brought down everything that was on the battery plugs. After researching a replacement, this is the one I chose. It has more battery plugs than the previous ups. So I feel better protected against a power surge.

    I wanted something that would keep all of my computer equipment running during a brief power outage and this works very well. It won't keep things powered on for hours but nothing does that. This gives me the opportunity to shut things down normally if needed.

    Battery lasts shorter than I expected. Without anything plugged in, the managing electronics of the device to run the back up battery down in 4-5 hours (can't remember exactly how many). You would think for a UPS the managing electronics would be closer to an open circuit so that all of the storage went to the items plugged into it. Does the job though

    I use this unit to power my home office desk (computer, monitor, voip phone, network switch, Thunderbolt hub, etc) during an outage. It's quiet and keeps it all working without a hiccup.

    I use these at many sites to backup electronics. APC is top notch and these have many good features. I love seeing how full the battery charge is and how large of a load I have plugged into the UPS, all on the front panel.

    Two units failed in 12 months. Two completely different electrical systems and this is the only affected device at either location. First unit stopped holding a charge after 6 months. Second unit is fully locked up 9 months in. Green power light is on but device is fully unresponsive and no longer providing power to battery backup outlets. Now its essentially a massive paperweight surge protector. If you need a UPS, and dont want to spring for a rack mounted unit, id suggest avoiding this model. Clearly has serious issues.

    You have to install the battery connection first! After that, easy setup. Easy to read heads up display. Has a load indicator and voltage input. I have gaming console, tv, WiFi router, and sound bar connected and works perfectly.
