Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the second back up from this APC I have purchased. The 1st one was 4 years ago (BN 1000) & still working great. When our elect goes out we are able to keep our wifi running for awhile. We would not really know about power surges but this backup beeps when it happens & it is frequent in our area. This has been a computer lifesaver. The APC backup is highly recommended.

The UPS is a fantastic UPS. It does the job we needed it to do and we would purchase another one if needed. Quality is great and it is working great.

It works well and safe my desktop from power outage MANY time! Its digital screen has some indicators so its easier to understand what's going on

Great product. It works very well in keeping everything up and running.

We use these for our business. Frequent power outages occur in our area and we were tired of our equipment stopping and/or failing when the power would go off momentarily or for an hour etc. This backup works perfect to prevent hiccups in our production and work when these power outages occur. Must have for our operations!

This one replaces the one I bought back in approximately 2010. I got a battery failure error during our last power blip, and so I figured it was time for a new one. These devices also provide a conditioned source of power, eliminating the risks of voltage fluctuations (especially now that I live in Las Vegas) and keeping my computers safe. I also bought one for my 3D printers which claim to tolerate power outages, but if you’ve ever tested that theory you’d see that sometimes you get print failures, or at least a very visible “print line,” when the power comes back and they try to resume printing. I can’t recommend a better UPS brand, and in particular this 1550VA model, for most any residential equipment power and protection needs.

Great product and works well when the power goes out and important devices don't just die!

Excellent UPS it has every feature I need, plenty of outlets and is relatively affordable

Been using it for a few months and it is working perfectly.

These units have saved me a bunch of times. I do video editing and can’t tell you how many times the power has gone out on me and these things saved my project. I love how long they run... they are high quality and worth it!

This thing is fantastic! The power in my building occasionally cuts out and it’s nice having the peace of mind that my tech won’t be fried from a sudden outage. It’s already come in handy once with a recent outage. Would recommend to anyone with any tech in their homes especially for your home internet/pc setup.

I bought it since my area has common power outage. The backup generator has been cool to use with it features. It main connections is my pc and I could see how much wattage it uses and how many minutes I have before it completely shuts off

Needed a proper UPS for my new Synology NAS. It may be over spec'd for just the NAS, Router, and one external usb drive, but I wanted compatibility, some reasonable battery power time, and integration with Synology's power settings. It's straight forward, well built, and of course APC is a leading and reliable brand. Setup was simple. Engage the battery as illustrated and plug in. It does have front usb charging outlets, but this unit stores away in an entertainment cabinet so they won't be used. Very satisfied with purchase. Among other information included in the display, the unit will provide an estimated battery up time on power failure based on the amount of draw from the devices you connect. It's kind of set and forget, but do monitor battery condition over time - they don't last forever ;-)

Good product at a good price. Does the job without issues

Built a new gaming computer. Power went out when I was using it. Power them came on and off a few times. Computer took a very long time to restart. Scarred me. Went to Best Buy and now protected. Easy to set up. Easy to use software. Would recommend.

This has given me so much peace of mind after investing so much money into a gaming PC setup. We've had several power outages in my city and my electronics have been unaffected due to this backup battery.

Absolutely awesome vvworks great vpower went off twice since i had it. No problems

We have many power problems where we live, so we have many UPSs. We have two of these, along with several others by APC. We have a UPS on our computers, TV, cable modem and routers. We also have some lights and Alexa controllers on UPSs. These 1500s are solid performers. We have had several power events since we installed these, including high voltage (about 145 Volts) when a local substation self destructed. All the APC units handled all the problems. We have one of these on our big TV that uses about 200 Watts and with it, we hardly notice when the power fails. The free PowerChute software is informative and helpful. I also very much like the front-panel display. It comes on automatically when there's a power problem.

This unit is now two years old and has a 3 year warranty. I noticed earlier this year it was having trouble and would start clicking really fast when I would boot my desktop. Fast forward to two days ago when thunderstorms pushed through my area. All of my other battery backups did what they are supposed to do but this unit just stopped working and started squealing when the lights flickered displaying error code F02. I tried to reboot my machine but it wouldn't supply any power. Then I turned it off and back on several times before the F02 would clear off the display and then it would boot my machine. This is the pro version and cost more than the regular version yet the regular versions work fine while this pro model fell flat on its face. Since I need power to my desktop without fail I immediately purchased a new cyberpower sine wave unit to replace it. I searched the apc website for warranty claims but their chat feature is offline and Schnieder electric apparently is in India. This will be my last APC brand purchase.

We have purchased about 7 or 8 of these for all our office computers. They give you enough time to save and close before shutting down on power outages.
