The 11 year old CyberPower 1500 VA system that I purchased back in 2013 failed. I ordered this system to replace it. After installing the new CyberPower system, I opened up the old system and found one of the batteries developed a crack which apparently caused the battery to fail. The new system had some extreme tests about a week later when some severe thunderstorms rolled through eastern Nebraska and caused brownouts and failed power for a few seconds. The new system worked perfectly.

Does its job

I bought a few of these here and there and they worked great when the power went out, machines stayed running.

This UPS is pretty good, APC units last and function well

Been waiting for a storm to submit a review. This unit maintained my internet connection during a Tornado Warning and subsequent power outage. I love it!

I had a hum from my turntable and my Marantz 2325 had FM bleed on all inputs. After installing this all these systems went away. Switching between inputs at almost full volume it is now very clear. And my turntable hum is suppressed and has never sounded so good. I didn't realize how much trash was on my homes electrical, but this defiantly cleaned it all up. If you have a nice stereo system this is a must have device.

Does exactly what it says for a good price. It is a good looking device. This device exceeded my expectations. It easily handled a simulated power outage.

it has a long 6 feet cord 8 outlets and also all surge protected very nice slim design and good flat right angle plug

- Works as advertised, supports my mid-range PC with dual monitor setup long enough to save, close my work & shutdown when outages/fluctuations occur - power supplied to my devices plugged in remains consistent & entirely uninterrupted - Has lived through over a dozen power flickers & full on outages in my small town which is notorious for frying household appliances with our terrible power company (in southern Ontario, Canada) - Alarm when wall power is lost and UPS has kicked on can be turned off/on - Alarm, when on, is not excessively loud - the word alarm makes you think it will be screaming at you but it's comparable to a microwave button beep, probably a little bit quieter - When alarm is turned off, it still makes a very audible click when kicking on due to external power being cut off, so unless you have closed headphones or are blasting music you'll probably know the power went out if you didn't have any other indicator (like you had your lights off in your room mid-day or something) and can begin shutting your stuff off

- Great packaging, fast delivery.


This APC BR1500MS2 Back UPS PRO backs up and stabilizes the power to my network modem, router, NAS, PBX, FAX machine and VoIP interface. It also protects them from surges. Even momentary power interruptions can be a serious interruption to my wife's and my work and potentially costly. Brief utility power interruptions cause no problems on our network. During a sustained outage, the internal batteries in this UPS keep our network infrastructure running long enough for me to start our backup power generator and get it on-line. Living on a coastal island in a hurricane zone, power glitches are common. My previous UPS was a similar APC model that served me well for more than ten years before it needed another set of batteries and was on the verge of being functionally obsolete.


This UPS was a great solution to support networking equipment (modem, router, switch) that I installed in my basement. It has lots of outlets and the size of the unit was perfect for mounting on the network wall panel.

12 outlets, you can close the ones you don't use (excellent with dusty corners), even protects my router, the TV card in my PC, and the phone line too! Its so small I can't believe it, the pictures make it seem larger.


The ability to add an external battery pack drew me toward this unit. I wound up not needing any extra batteries. Its display shows different info when scrolling through the various options. Estimated runtime in minutes is great info as is the current load in watts.

Fits right in. Easy swap out. No mess, simply change.


Small and works great for the modem and router and other small power use.
