I would recommend this to a friendBattery back up power strip
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have frequent power outages this can help protect your electronics. However, it’s lifespan is only two years or less.After that it won’t hold a charge strong enough to protect you from long outages.

Posted .Hello BestBuyer, Lead acid batteries have an average life of 3-5 years and the SE450G1 comes with a 3 year warranty from date of purchase. If you've only had the unit for 2 years, please reach out to our support team at 877-297-6937 and we'd be happy to assist. We hope to hear from you!
Cyber Power warranty isn't worth the digital space
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought two. They both died same time about 5 months after install. Cyber Power wants me to pay to ship them for replacement. The cost of shipping even at the cheapest would be incredibly expensive. The end result would cause the units base price to sky rocket. AVOID CYBER POWER AT ALL COST They are garbage and the warranty basically useless if you factor in paying to ship to them. Also, research shows they last less longer than their competitors I would give negative zeros if possible

Regular UPS device
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a regular UPS product. Battery is not replaceable without special tools. I'll have to deal with it in about 18 months when the battery is wasted. Clunky. outlets too close together to accomodate power supplies. But it works.
I would recommend this to a friendGood value, but limited
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good value for a backup with minimal features. One complaint is the alignment of the three prong plug receptacles. Should be rotated 90 degress to make it possible to plug in more bulky power cords
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat cost
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are many other pricier options without the features. After two major storms this has performed as advertised.
I would recommend this to a friendDidn't work as intended
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this back in October of 2024 to protect my computer tower in the event we lost power again. It turned on and from what i could tell the power light was on and my computer is now protected. Well, just 2 days ago the power went out and the house went dark and so did my computer tower. The battery backup did not work at all. It turned off too. I was very surprised because best buys products usually work just fine. But not this. I am very disappointed.

Posted .Hello! Take care to ensure you are not overloading the battery and only place critical items like the tower and a single monitor in the Battery supported outlets, and move all non-critical items to the Surge Side. I would encourage you to reach out to our tech support at https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/support/submit-a-support-ticket/ or calling us at 1.877.297.6937 so we can fully diagnose the issue as well as offer product warranty if need be. Have a good day!
Dead Upon Opening
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I plugged this in and let it charge up (Needs to charge 8 hours before use) then I plugged in 3 monitors and my desktop so it was not fully loaded. Then it started beeping out of no where and the beep stood for the battery being overloaded. So then on the website it said unplug everything then unplug it from the wall so it runs off the backup battery and if it kept beeping for the battery being overloaded then the battery has malfunctioned. Upon doing this it kept beeping so I promptly returned it and got a regular surge protector.

On sale yeahh
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The price is a little more expensive when in Costco you find one with more power 325 watts for 5.00 less, and take in consideration that this one was on sale otherwise it would cost me more
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works as it should so far. It does have to be charged for 8 hours before plugging things into it.
I would recommend this to a friendSeriously consider what peace of mind means to you
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This UPS did not protect my equipment from an over current event. I purchased this UPS to surge protect my entertainment center as well as provide battery backup for my router and modem. My house was hit by some sort of surge, and the only electronics that suffered were all plugged in to this UPS. I have always protected my electronics by a beefy surge protector that had connected equipment coverage. I was careful to make sure that the running wattage of the connected devices would not overwhelm the unit. I seriously doubt the credibility of Cyberpower's surge protection claims. I have been in a constant battle with horrible customer support about connected equipment claims ever since the incident that bricked my entire networking and entertainment setup. This has been ongoing for more than three weeks, if not more than a month. I have yet to hear whether any of my electronics will be covered. At this point, I'm at a total loss for all of my connected devices. I have other outlets in the house protected by another brand of UPS that I also purchased through BB and I will only use that brand from now on.

Power back up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After power shortage I got this for my desktop. Surge protection included. Works as described
I would recommend this to a friendGood, but not APC
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed to replace my APC unit, but due to COVID there is not a lot of stock to choose from. Went with this one for the time being, so far so good... I prefer APC though

Not spending $200+
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s the only one they had, I wasn’t spending 200+ for a better one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendReasonable ups
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Reasonably priced ups for home computer. Appears to be working the way it should
I would recommend this to a friendScam
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very bad power brick it is heavy like a brick ugly and short cable and overpriced
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from TechSupport
Posted .Our battery backups do tend to be a bit heavy as they have a sealed lead-acid battery within them, but they do a great job of protecting your connected equipment from brownouts and other issues with power. If you have any questions or would like to have your unit replaced under warranty, please contact our Technical Support team at 1-877-297-6937 and select option 1. Thank you for your review Yania!
Never again!!!
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this power pack back in February. It is now December and the time I needed it to work, if failed miserably. We had a tornado in my area recently and the power went out. I was working on a paper for school at the time. To my dismay, once the electricity went out, the power pack began beeping multiple beeps in succession. That indicates the pack is about to fail. The pack turned off before I was able to save or logout of my computer. This piece of crap did not live up to the hype

Posted .Hello Raphael, I understand your UPS did not provide any battery backup. If the UPS senses a power outage the UPS will beep every 30 seconds letting you know there is a power outage. This UPS also comes with a 3-year warranty and can be replaced. Please contact our technical support team at 1.877.297.6937 and dial 1 for technical support.
