Many appreciate its pure sine wave output, ample power, and user-friendly display and setup. Positive feedback also highlights the unit's quiet operation and compact size.

    I needed a new Battery Back up for a new high end Desktop Computer. This CyberPower 1500 has the power I need. It was easy to set up and operate. This protection is a must have to keep my Computer warranty coverage; In Bakersfield we have brownouts (low voltage) frequently in the hot summers as well as surprise blackouts. I get enough time to save my work and close;

    My area has been having an usual number of power outages, so I decided to get this unit to safely shut down my NAS. It's a fantastic unit and provides steady power to everything I have attached. My NAS connects via USB, so it can tell when the UPS battery kicks in to perform a safe shutdown. I also bought another one to keep the network on for awhile during power outages. So far we've had two incidents and the unit performed fantastically in both. The color screen provides good information as to the state of the batteries and power line. Set up was simple. And the batteries are replaceable!

    This does not cause my computer to shutdown when it transitions from battery to AC like my APC did. Pure Sine Wave is the only UPS I'll be buying going forward. Newer computer PSUs just don't react well to stepped sine wave UPS power. Runtime is great, plenty of outlets to run my computer and 3 screens. Will buy another for SWMBO's CPAP, I don't want to risk it reacting poorly to a cheaper UPS. I haven't really tested runtime, but I have no doubt that it will power my system plenty long enough to shutdown safely and then some.

    Active PFC compatible Pure Sine Wave UPS Handles my Ryzen 5 5600x w/ PBO and Curve Optimizer at -20 on all cores / RX 7900 XT based system with EASE. Can easily maintain power on the system, charging my phone, and running my monitor for nearly 45 minutes in the event of a power outage. Switch is instantaneous, and doesn't have the "10ms delay" that some other units do due to their design - which can be largely problematic in the right (wrong) environment. Has lasted nearly 2 years without any complications or degredation in battery life, through two power outages. I was LARGELY against buying CyberPower anything, and typically reserve my UPS purchases to buy Tripplite. I'm very glad that I decided to purchase this.

    This is the third version of this UPS I have owned and they have all been great. I'm glad the price finally went back down to normal again too. Two years ago the batteries in my last one blew up one day, literally, and I couldn't get one of these so I went with a different model from CyberPower and the warranty at that time on any model from this or any other company was down to a year or less. I guess that made sense when it didn't even last two years before I had to replace it. I hope this is better quality again like the older models, but at least the warranty and price are much better again.

    I bought two of these for my network and alarm system. Easy to install. I have older Cyberpower units and they are very reliable. Three year warranty on it and the battery. Should change the battery between 3 and 4 years since they degrade over time. This is the GL model, you need to connect a Windows laptop to it to monitor the health. Suggestion: test it from time to time by pulling the plug to see how long it will power your device(s). You don't need surprises.

    Well made and has more features than competition for the price point. I like the app that is easily downloaded to my MAC that provides a summary of the unit's performance, power conditions, and history. Some of the plugs on my equipment are turned sideways, so they cover up some of the plugs. For these, I used a short pigtail extension cord and these allowed me to use all 12 of the plugs.

    I'm often on my computer for long sessions almost daily, so having this was a must to give me some peace of mind in case of an unexpected outage. I like the info I can see on the display, and the extra usb ports are a nice add-on, too.
