    Set it and forget it....until the batteries need replacement, and you can't find them.

    Quality PSU

    Powerful. Silent. Durable. This PSU does its job without issue. Have had a few outages and I had ample time to save my work before shutting down. No surge issues at all.

    battery replacement notice from PowerChute

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is a bit curious. My 1500 unit after about 2 years notified me that the battery test failed and I needed to replace the battery. This has happened to me before with other APC units. I decided to try something. I changed the battery replacement date in the app to the current date. I then ran the battery test multiple times. They all passed. Is there an explanation that I am missing for this?

      Thank you for taking the time to review our UPS. The alarm could have been a false alarm on the UPS. I would keep an eye on the unit to make sure the alarm doesn't come back on the unit. Also this unit would come with a 3 year year warranty on it so if it does come back please reach out to an APCbySchneiderElectric support team. We offer email and chat services through our support site. For the fastest service visit our chat at https://www.apc.com/us/en/tools/chat/. APC

    Chirp

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this product when it was on sale, and am unfortunately going to have to return it. While I have used only APC products in the past (we have 5 throughout our house) and loved most of them, my last one (had reoccurring issues with the battery and the self-test for the entire six years I had it) and this one have disappointed me. This particular device has a "chirping" sound every four seconds. It is kind of like the flash on a camera charging up. It is not that loud, but loud enough to be majorly annoying. Maybe in a noisy environment it wouldn’t be an issue, but in a quite office space or room it is. After doing some research (after I purchased it), I found this seems to be common with this particular unit. I found that ones with the serial numbers 3B1746XXXXXX, 3B1747XXXXXX and 3B1749XXXXXX (the one I got) seem to have this issue. I also read that ones with serial numbers beginning with 4B1806XXXXXX may have the issue fixed.

      Thank you for taking the time to review our BN1500M2. It sounds like the "chirp" is cosmetic in nature and does not impact the unit's functionality. We definitely want you to be completely satisfied with the UPS, so please do not hesitate to contact APCbySchneider support if it is a continued annoyance. We offer email and chat services through our support site. APC

    Not Pure Sine Wave

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It's an average UPS. However, MANY of you don't understand this is NOT a pure sine wave UPS. It's sine wave ON battery but simulated off battery. Don't use this for network equipment, pc's etc. Get the BR1500MS model for pure sine wave.

    Set up was easy and downloading PowerChute (the management software) was not tricky. Definitely recommend not skipping the software install as that has all the settings that you may want to adjust.

    I have this model UPS on all of the TV's and network equipment in my home. The UPS provides the same power signature that electronics expect so there's no outage.
