Need a UPS for my computer and router. This one works great. The battery is big enough to run my computer for a few hours. I like the display information showing how much electricity you're using and how much you have left. Installation was simple. I liked it so much I bought a second one for my TV and entertainment system. Lost power last week and it worked perfectly.

I have used several UPS Battery Backup brands over the years generally based on price points and device equipment. But I like the Cyber Power brand for my heavy duty equipment as I can always trust it will continue to perform solidly.

Researched a bit looking for the longest running power source in case power goes out. Have 4 of these now. One on each computer in different offices and now one on the sump pump so the basement never floods!

We had an electrical outage a few days ago and this surge protector performed well, moderating the electrical current surge when the power came back on.

Area power used to be stable but a recent series of short outages for no apparent reason caused me to look at battery backup for DirecTV system. This UPS provides me enough time to keep recording through the annoying outages.

I have so far only had this device for a few weeks and I'm using it to run only the main pump on a 55 gallon fish tank. But it indicates that it should be able to run this pump for between 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours when needed.

this unit replaced an older battery backup that was no longer usable. It is twice the size of my older unit, and looks better then my old unit. I looked around to see who had what units, and this was the best deal .

So far so good. No power outages yet but it seems to do what it is advertised to do. I bought two of them to run my network and Mac mini server. I work from home so hopefully I will be good. We will just have to see.

I always thought I preferred APC, but since they were bought out their quality has went down a lot. Honestly think CyberPower makes an equal or even better product these days. I have 3 of these, if you dont mind spending a few extra dollars get the models with sine wave correction. They work well in areas with storms and crappy power grids. If you care about your equipment get these and throw away any "surge protectors" as they do functionally nothing for you.

Seriously powerful UPS. I have this thing maxed out on all plugs and when the power goes out it keeps everything running for over an hour and protects from serious surges. I live in an area where the power goes out frequently due to trees falling on power lines and this thing has saved me thousands of dollars in protecting me equipment.

This UPS provided more power capacity and a better Joule rating than the closest comparable APC models at a lower price. Easy setup with automatic installation of the unobtrusive desktop power monitor utility.

For anyone with a high-end computer, this is a great way to protect it from Brown-outs, Black-outs and other electricity stability issues. The battery charges from the wall, and the computer, printer and monitors run off of the battery. That way, the power going to the tech is even, without spikes and valleys. The surge protector also protects anything else plugged in.

this product is well made and was very easy to set up. I have not had to worry about it. This product has protected my computer from several power surges and I have enough time to shut down my computer in case of a power outage. It has enough juice to even support my router for hours in time of power outage

Had to replace my UPS in an emergency. My lg850 died after 4 years of great service. Called my local best buy and picked up the 1500LX. Easy setup, battery was charged already!! Back in business within 30 minutes.
Power Software installed and read all data correctly.

Good battery backup for surge protection and short duration power outages. I use one on the router, NAS, Main ethernet switch and backup drives and they allow for graceful shutdown and saves on my NAS.

Kept the Internet running

So, surprisingly enough I haven't had a UPS system for the last couple of decades. I guess I was willing to risk a hard drive crash on a sudden power failure, since I have lots of spare parts and a fairly robust backup plan.
However, the electric company decided to change some poles on our street, and they announced a scheduled power outage on a Wednesday. The only problem with this is that both of my children were doing on-line school because of COVID-19. So the idea was to buy a UPS, charge it up, and run the modem and router off of it while the power was off. One child uses an iPad, and the other a laptop, and it was only the electricity turning off and not cable or anything.
And it worked. The UPS kept the router and modem running for the duration of the outage (which turned out to be about 4 hours). It probably would have gone on another 4 if needed.
Now I also have the main family PC and peripherals plugged into it to allow a controlled landing in case of a power failure. I also think it's kinda cool that in the event of a power failure, we might still have access to the internet as long as cable is intact. I guess it kinda brings some comfort to a possibly bad situation during a storm.
