    I've been looking for a UPS that would handle my PC. The last one alarmed every time I started graphics heavy applications and the graphics cards started pulling extra power from the power supply. Works well. Had two power outages and I had plenty of time to close everything out and shut-down. Third one was in the middle of a game, and I ended up playing the couple of minutes until the power came back up. Just watched the power level like health. Plenty of outlets in back for CPU, Monitor, router, etc. The software (optional, but included) is well laid out and easy to use. Has the kind of features you'd expect for an UPS designed for unattended use such scheduled restart times.

    Backup with a good interface/app

    Replaced two old units with this larger unit. One of the old UPS had a fault that said the battery was bad. I replaced the battery with a spare I keep for this purpose and the fault went away. BUT the old battery checked good with voltage and load. So replaced old unit that may have had bad electronics. This new UPS backups all my Ethernet/modem/Wi-Fi/satellite/NAS/Roku/computer/4K monitor. With the interface I can see how everything is working, what the voltage is and time allowance left thru the USB hookup. And we have had two power outages since I purchased this. It supplied the power till I shut down my computer. For my load, it says 32 minutes run time.

    Love the display, easy to use UI. I have my router/modem, DVR, TV, audio receiver and says it would last about 30min on UPS. Not bad, prob last longer if just the router/modem was on.

    I needed a new UPS for my computer and router because my old one was going bad. I got on the internet and looked at several different ones and really liked the specs on this one. It had a great price for the power requirements that I was looking for. It was a great decision to buy this brand and model for my setup.

    Purchased two units after two older units gave up the ghost. Found these at a reduced price with all the new features. I was very pleased. These were recommended by my "computer mentor" and involuntary "tech support guru" who wished he could buy a couple extras. The mfg's warranty seems better than the competition.

    This is the second Cyber Power 1550 that i have bought. The first still works fine for computer and modem back up. The second is for security cameras. Power is normally out briefly so this back up power supply works great if you only need the back up for an hour or two.

    We seem to routinely have brief power glitches in the morning and they're just enough of a disruption to cause the computer to go off and reboot. This back up power system works great and instantly provides backup power to offset any disruption and also provides voltage smoothing and power surge protection. There is sufficient capacity to run the computer and monitor for some time if the power were to go out for a longer period and gives ample time for an orderly shutdown. I have purchased one of these for each of my computers and feel protected.

    These power supply back-ups & surge protectors are perfect! I use them on ALL of our internet devices, computers, Home THeater room, and Server that houses over 2000 films.. It amazing when the power goes out there’s not even a flicker on my 165” screen, while watching an HD film running from my sever. It gives me time to walk downstairs and start the generator, flip the transfer switch and again NOT a Flicker of power and our equipment valued at tens of thousands remains undmaged. If you even own a gaming PC thats high end, I recommend this! If you want to keep WiFi when the power is out, use these!

    Very happy with this UPS. I use it for my audio/video equipment and my microcell unit. It handles my 55" TV, Directv receiver, DVD player, AV receiver, LAN switch and microcell. Mainly bought it because I live in a wooded area and tend to have lots of brief power outages. It keeps everything powered easily, prevents my receivers from having to reset and keeps my network connections up. I like the upright design as it takes up less floor space and I can tuck it behind my entertainment center easily. I would definitely buy another if I needed it. Have used APC brand in the past, but this will be my go to brand for my next purchase.

    This is a great performer but I have not been able to figure out many of the functions. I just printed off the internet the 329 page manual and will be reading it to try to figure this out. I did blue tooth a cell phone to it and it plays strong across our ceiling speakers in a 12,000 square foot warehouse

    This came charged out of the box, has no problem powering all my routers, cable modem and high-end new PC. When the PC is idling it shows a battery runtime of around 80 minutes is possible, and with the PC shutdown and running only all the comm and Wi-Fi it shows a runtime of about 10 hours. Exactly what I wanted/needed. Software downloaded from the CyberPower website is great for seeing energy use and status. Highly recommend!

    This unit, while a bit more pricey than basic battery backup/surge protection units, provides an extra level of protection for electronics such a computers by providing real-time power conditioning. It also features an ethernet surge protection filter so it is an excellent choice for many desktop computer applications. Multiple outlets also allow connection to printers, modems, video screens, etc. which need protection from surge as well. A USB connection to your PC allows monitoring of battery life and performance history.

    Has a bit of a new plastic smell to it and it’s over a month, but it seems to be slowly fading away. Anyone with a computer should have one of these. Search what power outages or even drops or spikes can do to your computer. I learned the hard way as a power outage fried my motherboard on a 2 year old computer. I will have one for now on as long as I own a computer. This one works great as of now. I have it set up to shut down computer automatically. DO NOT plug laser printers into battery side. I definitely recommend for the peace of mind you get knowing it’s on battery back up especially during a update.

    Great unit. 5 surge protection outlets and 5 surge protection with battery outlets, so it's plenty to cover computer, monitors, modem, router, and whatever else you need. Coax and Ethernet protection keeps you covered for the internet lines too. The software is great fire monitoring for issues, tuning the protection level, and setting up what you want the computer and ups to do in an outage. I did have to Google to find the software, but it was pretty way to find. Overall great product

    I own 6 of these 1500VA back-up systems- 4 at my home and 2 at my mother-in-law's home. I have my television, cable box and computer hooked up to them. When the power goes out the TV doesn't even make a blip. The cable doesn't have to reboot.. everything keeps going. Note too, that you can hook up LED lights with low wattage and they will last many, many- hours. My TV and cable will run for about 2 hours (continuous) on the back-up battery. During FL storm season, they are very handy and worth the purchase!
