Excellent for my use case.
This UPS works very well for my use, powering all the equipment I use on a daily basis. In fact, the power from the UPS seems cleaner than what I get from the grid, even though it’s not really conditioning the power, that I’m aware of. I’m merely going off the fact that my analogue receiver’s transformer humm is a little quieter and sounds ever so slightly smoother than it usually does, something most people likely wouldn’t notice. I’ve also had no ground loop humming while connecting or disconnecting devices to my mixer, or while using the inverter in the UPS itself.After receiving the UPS, I was able to figure out where the battery door is and open it to connect the battery, then I connected it to power for a couple hours with no load on it, allowing the battery to fully charge as indicated by the UPS, though it likely still had several hours to go until a complete charge was achieved. I then disconnected the UPS from power, receiving the pleasant sound of four beeps every thirty seconds that will probably wake me up at night, a good thing, since I’ll transfer the UPS from its battery to another external power source if the power is out longer than a few minutes.After verifying that this worked correctly, I connected my serge protector to the UPS after connecting it to power, which has my equipment connected. One Asus laptop, an audio mixer, wireless headphones, two USB hubs, one of which isn’t being used, an old analogue receiver and equalizer for my sound system, a TV which is usually off, an Apple TV, a modem for internet, a computer for my router, a router for a Wi-fi hot spot, and a USB-C charger for my MacBook Pro.Under normal circumstances if I’m not using the receiver, though it’s usually on and waiting to be used, I’m probably pulling about 150 watts from the UPS. According to APC’s information and calculator, this will probably provide around 45 minutes of run time, so this should give me plenty of time to wait and see if the power is going to stay off, and if so, switch to a larger battery to power the UPS itself. I did test this, and it does work, at least, with a pure signwave inverter. If I need more runtime, I can extend it by powering off everything I’m not using. My receiver and equalizer, for instance.So far, everything is very stable, I’ve had no difficulties, and I’m anticipating a battery replacement in about three to five years, typical with an SLA battery, as long as you’re not deep cycling it and keeping it on a well maintained floating charge most of the time.

Perfect order, works great
Very happy- I bought this to replace an old APC 1400 RM UPS that lasted 20 years and 4 sets of batteries. I specifically received the BR1500MS2 model which is what I expected. I have a massive water cooled PC, big displays, router etc so I needed something that would support at least 1000 watts. It worked perfectly right out of the box, although the batteries were only 2/3 charged. Once fully charged I get a solid 15+ minutes of runtime. The Powerchute Personal edition communicates via USB, and the software (available via download) has a very nice feature set, including lots of diagnostics and condition checks. Its quiet unlike most Data Center UPS. If your looking for a fully featured UPS for your home office then this is a good choice. Quiet, no smells, attractive design. The only minor drawback is that the very bottom power outlets are close to the bottom, so they will not accept a larger power brick on the very bottom row, but this is to be expected for such a compact design.

MEDINA, Armando IIS –
Es un excelente NoBreak que debes de tener en la casa o la oficina.De inicio la baterÃa viene desconectada (por seguridad al transportarse) por lo que deberás abrirlo y conectar la baterÃa, es muy fácil y tiene las instrucciones con etiquetas amarillas que te guiarán paso a paso.- El display no se puede apagar y tampoco se puede reducir el brillo.- Silencioso No es. Hace un “ruidito” que indica que está funcionando que Si es bastante audible, por lo que hay que lidiar con esto.+ La bateria recargada por completo, si cubre al menos 40 min. (tengo conectado los servicios del ISP, NAS y un sistema de Alarma y todo funcionó correcto cuando se interrumpió el servicio de energÃa)+ Cuando hay una sobrecarga, la contiene y se apaga por seguridad (esto me pasó cuando registró una descarga porque un auto choco en el poste de energÃa)+ Mejor que cualquier producto TrippLite ;)Precio competitivo !
