Pros & Cons
Pros
The software takes a bit of patience to set up. And that process is a bit fiddly. The unit is deceptively heavy so be sure to squat lift it!
This product straddles the line between a lower range data center product and a prosumer kind of ups. The ups uses a line-interactive topology instead of an on-line topology.
The current watts usage and runtime reminaining features, give you an idea of how much time you have next time the power goes out. I average around 420-480 watts and runtime is around an hour on battery. And up) and hibernate is often chosen.
Cyberpower uses a nema l5-30p that is sometimes used for large-draw appliances like driers. It runs on 120v, but it needs 24a and an appliance outlet. All these models have avr (automatic voltage regulation) the same boiler also supplies our hot water... Read More
Cyberpower - their models here have emi/rfi noise attenuation max of 48db in the 150khz to 100mhz range. Connected pr's usb to windows 8. It has plenty of power to keep peripherals going during short brown outs.

Single wall cardboard with some styrofoam endcaps isn't going to protect this from damage during shipping.
Highlights
Quality

Have since swapped out the old apc 750va unit with equivalent (no doubt better) cyberpower unit, though the apc unit did power ... Read More
Price
The old (cheap) modified sine-wave isn't a sine wave at all.
Shipping
Cyberpower pr1500lcd received in perfect working order, no shipping damage, shipper usps, or loose components.
Packaging/appearance
Great unit, arrived in secure packaging and the control panel is easy to navigate and use.
I've seen some negative reviews about flimsy packaging, but mine was very secure with double layer cardboard and tight styrofoam supports.
Got three of the cyberpower pr1500lcd nets almost a year ago to replace similar, but much older apc 1500va units (from more tha... Read More
Competitiveness
I have a couple of smaller cyberpower units that i have had for years and which have worked perfectly.
I have six cyberpower units in my home and have all but one running for years.
I use this for two 1000watt pcs, along with monitors, and two hp laptop workstations and some basic desk lighting and this unit... Read More
