Customers admire the 1500VA Battery Back-Up System's long battery life, strong performance, and ease of use. Many appreciate its surge protection capabilities, reasonable price, and the informative display. While some found the unit heavy and noted occasional software challenges, the positive feedback on its functionality and features outweighs these minor drawbacks. The system's setup is also praised for being straightforward.

    I often get brownouts at home & this UPS handles them well. Front display tells you what is going on & the charge level of the internal storage.

    I purchased this battery back up as I needed two and the store only had one APC. This worked very well and was easy to set up.

    Bought this for my TV room, which has a 65” LCD, PS4 Pro, PS3, and a bunch of other random consoles. I have an old house with bad wiring, and we do get random surges, especially during storms. We haven’t had issues with actual brown outs or complete power outages where I live, but we do blow fuses and get surges quite a bit. I actually own two of these UPSs, where the other one is being used for my PC. I haven’t had any issues with that one for the 2+ years.

    I purchased three of these for the office after a power outage. They have a display that estimates how much time they have left on them, which is great. However, I don't know how much they'll actually hold in the event of another power outage as they are currently sustaining the server room.

    When the power goes out, most of my smart home devices are out of the picture (lights, smart plugs, etc.). However, smart locks, open/close sensors, and anything else on battery power is still very useful and benefits from continuous monitoring. This device powers my wifi router, modem, SmartThings hub, and cordless phone. When mains power goes out, it estimates 500 minutes of backup time for these devices together (complete with real-time readout of estimated minutes remaining). I've never tested it longer than 30 minutes, but the readings seem to be accurate over that half hour.
