Had this for 12 hours and LOVE IT! Better performance than my 10 yr old UPS battery
5/5 RatingProsCan handle large loads of powerEasy to connect and registerLCD Digital Display8 plug outletsTakes up small spaceConsHEAVY!!!The outlet plugs on the back are very close together, it’s tough to use all the plug outletsPriceyI operate a small business as well as do tons of research with my custom built computer. I have dual 32 inch monitors that takes up a lot of power. I am quite sure I draw more power than most. My previous UPS back up battery served me well until I got the monitors, now 3 times a month I get an overload on my UPS and the noise won’t go off until I unplug all outlets. It’s grown to be a pain.Until this arrived.First impression – It’s HEAVY!! Once you get it out the box you see it has a small form factor which is good. It can lay under the desk or to the side. I like that it has 8 outlets but they are so close together you can’t plug anything that has a large plug without taking up two spots.I plugged everything I had in my 10 yr old UPS and the load is only at 25% on this. I love it. It was easy to register, I haven’t used much of the advanced features but I will slowly get into it. So far so good. I’m very impressed with the quality and ease of use. I will update my review after using for awhile.

Nice, but HEAVY
I purchased this unit to protect a 2019 Mac Pro, which benefits from the pure sine wave output as opposed to the simulated sine wave on other models, which may eventually cause issues with the power supply. This unit is very heavy, weighing almost 60 lbs. It was hard to maneuver into a media cabinet, but otherwise, set up was a cinch. I just plugged in all of my peripherals, connected the UPS to the network via ethernet, and plugged in the USB-A cable from my Mac to the UPS. After turning the unit on and setting up the UPS via a simple wizard that asks basic questions on the LCD screen, everything powered up and my Mac automatically recognized the UPS without any additional software. I was able to configure the UPS shutdown parameters via System Preferences > Energy Saver > UPS.- FYI, the batteries were about 87% charged when the unit arrived, but they are now up to 99%.- There is an off putting chemical smell when you first remove and use the UPS, but it dispersed after a couple of days.- Operation is silent. I haven’t heard any fan noises or beeps from this unit so far.- FYI, the 2019 Mac Pro connected to this unit has 16 cores and an AMD Vega II graphics card, but even at full load, it uses about 50% of this UPS’s capacity. There is also a Caldigit TB3 dock and LG Ultrawide display attached.So far, I am happy with this UPS, but I’m not looking forward to carrying this heavy unit out of the cabinet in 3-4 years to replace the batteries.

It does what it says it does.
This unit is reliable. I have had a server running just under its 1500W threshold. Power has gone out a number of times, as demonstrated by all the blinking appliance clocks. The computer I left running attached to this UPS did not miss a beat.

Works well, does NOT have wifi, definitely geared towards IT pros
I bought this in addition to having a full-house generator, because we suffered a continuous brownout (different than a blackout) for many hours, which mean the generator didn’t kick in but various electronics suffered. The goal with this was to protect the most essential stuff in these situations.As a small UPS backup battery with true sinewave protection, which essentially addresses this problem, the unit appears to work flawlessly thus far. So in terms of its main function, by all means, it does what it says it does. Since that is its core function, I am awarding it four stars.However, I have caveats with respect to the industrial roots clearly expressed through the design language. As one example, the opening salvo for the little screen in the front is a menu asking you to pick a language, which is reasonable, but heaven forbid you can’t clearly see and interpret the symbols on the four buttons underneath and mistakenly select a language in which you are not fluent as a result. Life after that that can get… interesting… until you figure out how to navigate the not-so-intuitive menus in that foreign language to get it back to yours.Or good luck figuring out the proper menu entry to enable the cloud management system. Or, for that matter, what “group 1” means on the back of the unit – basically half the power ports are surrounded by a big green border that says “group 1” on it, whereas the others are not. You’d naturally imagine that the power ports with the pretty border that draws your attention are the more important one, because that’s how proper design works. Alas, you’d be wrong – instead, “group 1” is actually the SECONDARY (or “controlled”) group, and the plain looking one is the one you want to stick your main stuff into. The manual here is no help either, if you care to try and read it (it’s pretty dense).There is nothing wrong with any of this, per se, and an IT person who does this all day will not be troubled in the least. Thankfully I have that experience in my background, but this sort of menu design and user interface is very 1990s or 2000s – not 2020s.A minor issue worth noting is that while this is a “cloud enabled” unit, it doesn’t come with WiFi! it was a bit of a shocker for me. I had to then order a WiFi bridge so that I can actually connect the unit to the cloud. In a data center, where wired Ethernet is the norm, this would of course not be a problem, but in a home office? it’s just another example of it being a 20 years old design.

long runtime
This is my third unit like this and all 3 are working great. I like them because they have a long run time if the power goes down for a while and they use inverters to generate the 120v when it is running. They just quietly grind away in the background with no issues.

Great Company, Great Power Supply
This is a great power supply. I have used this model for over 10 years, but I just ordered the new model. It is much improved and connects to the my internal network and the usb connection to the computer is a much better process using any usb connection. Great software has been improved.

The unit was very easy to install and setup. It was purchased to replace a APC BX850M . Just had to power down the old unit. Install this new one, and power it up. Now I can enjoy my 2 PCs not having a single overload alarm. I’m an happy camper now 🙂

In December 2019, I bought this as the core battery pack for our server, and it worked fine for 2 years and about four months. Since our whole internet is running through this battery pack, if it goes down… everything goes down. And that’s what has happened. There is an error that says B.04 – Defective battery. The odd thing is, it says electricity is getting to the device fine – but it CUTS all electricity whenever there is a surge. It has happened 3 times in two weeks – and of course its past the return date. It would have been a 4 or 5 star if not for this.

I’m partially satisfied about the product. It does his primary job of UPS greatly. But it was impossible to connect the UPS with the software provided with the USB cable. And the ethernet port is not for local monitoring but only to check the UPS status through the APC smartconnect website. This was not what I was looking for and from the documentation and the description is really hard to infer that limitation. I was looking an UPS with a embedded web interface and a software to be installed on the ESXi server (or Windows server at least) to shut it off when power level went critical.
