    Excellent device! Frequent power surges where I live due to storms, so helpful for working from home.

    Ive been using this for a few years now with all of my electronics connected to my entertainment center. I’ll admit this UPS is expensive, but worth the money. The UPS beeps when running on battery power and lets you know how long it will run depending on what all is active. It’ll even change if you turn something on or off as well.

    This is a great item, when all my gear is plugged in, I'm using 20% of the capacity, which gives me about a 35 minute runtime... Probably will get a 900VA unit to power my cable modem, router, and NAS (which will run for about 1.5 to 2 hours during an outage)

    Awesome little unit, I had an old 750 unit and it couldn’t handle the load from my new pc build so I got the 1500 knowing the quality of the product and I’m very impressed with how much sleeker it is with the vertical standing design as opposed to the old horizontal setup. It also has the convenient display so you can see the load and battery backup info. You do have to connect the battery before operating but it’s not too bad at all.

    Easy to set up, good capacity. Lets me ride out the near-daily 2 second flickers in my neighborhood without a hiccup, and despite the fact that I run 2 systems, their monitors, modem and router off of it, it's got more than enough battery to let me wrap things up, save, and shut down in the event of longer outage.

    Florida has a lot of heat and storms in the summer, causing unexpected power outages that result in a hard shut down of the computer. I researched so many products because the quality has gone down so much over the years. This item is the only one that passed muster. I've had no issues so far. There are some complaints about connecting the battery but that, too, is nonsense. I highly recommend this one.

    Been using this for a few months now. Lost power a total of 3 times since picking this up and the unit has worked great. Immediately kicks on when needed with no lost of connection from a router and modem both connected to it.

    Big & Heavy - But Protective!

    I purchased just in time when Hurricane Dorian brought heavy winds and rain to my area! There were intermittent power outages due to power lines and I still had power to my PC and internet! Plus when the power came back out, the surge protection helped my sensitive devices. One gripe about this and many others is the spacing of the plugs/outlets. Some devices have their plugs oriented sideways so when one plug is being used, it will be forced to face sideways which blocks out an open plug. Other than that, this is highly recommended!

    APC quality still can't be beat

    I bought 2 of these from Best Buy (one for each server rack at home) and they are exactly what you would expect from APC - Quality. The units have a great front panel display that is very informative and easy to read. The layout of the receptacles on the rear is nice and the front panel USB ports are a nice touch. The price at Best Buy was the final selling point for me, especially since I didn't have to worry about shipping costs on these HEAVY units.

    Reliable UPS System

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

    I have a few PCs, a monitor, and a 75” TV on it which is showing a load of less than 70 percent. When the power has gone out, the run time is incredibly long! It’s an excellent choice for high end systems, it also conditions the line so your electrics are getting clean power. It’s great when dealing with blackouts and brownouts, I trust my devices will be able to last much longer. APC has been a quality brand at work, I’ve now brought it into my home.

    Reliable back-up battery

    This was bought as a replacement for a prior Back-UPS Pro that got an internal fault after initially being put into service in 2010. APC is a reliable brand in my honest opinion and the battery replacements in these units are very easy. The only downfall is usually you can replace the internal batteries only once before the hardware finally gives out. Otherwise a very reliable unit.

    The quality of the UPS is good. It offers feature like 2 USB ports, USB C and USB A. It’s strong enough to keep my system on during short power outages. I use it for NAS system to protect it from brown and black outs.

    Needed a new unit for our business and this was a great option. We’d use this brand previously so it was a no brainer. Quick and easy setup and got things up and running again.
