Open Box: Used CyberPower PFC Sinewave Computer Battery Backup, 1500VA 900W UPS, 10 Outlets undefined

A mini-tower UPS with line interactive topology, the CyberPower PFC Sinewave CP1500PFCLCD provides battery backup (using sine wave output) and surge protection for desktop computers, workstations, networking devices, and home entertainment systems requiring active PFC power source compatibility.The CP1500PFCLCD features an advanced multifunction control panel with a color LCD to quickly confirm status and alerts at-a-glance. The screen tilts for easy viewing when the UPS is placed in a low position such as under a desk. Two USB charge ports (one Type-A and one Type-C) power portable devices such as mobile phones and tablets, even during a utility power failure.The CP1500PFCLCD uses Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, which extends battery life. AVR is essential in areas where power fluctuations occur frequently.FeaturesBattery BackupSupplies power long enough for equipment to properly shut down when utility power fails. Helps prevent loss of data and minimizes the component stress caused by a hard shutdown.Surge ProtectionDiverts excess voltage away from sensitive electronic equipment during an AC power surge or power spike to prevent damage.Sine Wave OutputThe UPS generates energy that is identical to, or cleaner than the utility company's power grid. Benefits include low total harmonic distortion, minimal electrical noise, and optimal line clarity.Multifunction LCD Panel with Color DisplayDisplays immediate, detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions. The color display quickly alerts users to potential problems before they can affect critical equipment and cause downtime. Screen tilts up to 22 degrees for easy viewing.Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR)AVR increases the AC power and maintains a safe voltage level without switching to battery mode and conserving battery life.USB Charge PortsRapidly charge and power USB devices whether the UPS is providing utility or battery backup power.Data Line ProtectionPrevents power surges that travel through Ethernet lines from causing damage to electronics.Widely Spaced Outlet(s)The widely-spaced outlet allow you to conveniently add transformer-sized plugs without blocking other outlets.Line Interactive TopologyExists when a line interactive UPS has an autotransformer that regulates low voltages (e.g., brownouts) and over voltages (e.g., spikes) without having to switch to battery.ENERGY STARThis model is an ENERGY STAR certified Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system. ENERGY STAR is the trusted, government-backed symbol for energy-efficient products and practices that help save money and protect the environment.GreenPower UPS Bypass DesignA patented design that allows utility power to bypass the UPS transformer, when AC power is stable, which reduces energy consumption, noise, and heat buildup.Ultra Quiet DesignMinimizes noise during operation for a quieter work environment.PowerPanel Business SoftwareProvides IT professionals with tools for monitoring and managing the UPS and backup power. This software offers remote management functionality.Applications&#149; Automatic Voltage Regulation&#149; Desktop&#149; Computers&#149; Home Networking&#149; Home Theater Equipment&#149; Personal Electronics&#149; VoIP Phone Systems&#149; WorkstationsLCD with Color DisplayOur multifunction, color LCD is simple to set up and easy to use. The design displays real-time information on the UPS battery and power conditions including operating status, load level, and battery capacity. Color icons clearly communicate UPS status: green for normal, yellow for warning, and red for fault notices.Other added LCD control functions allow you to set up sensitivity levels, mute the alarm, monitor power vitals, and more. Plus, the LCD tilts up to 22 degrees for easy viewing.GreenPower UPS Technology: Bypass DesignGreenPower UPS Technology from CyberPower improves operating efficiency, reduce heat generation, and consume less power than conventional UPS models.Our patented Bypass Design allows current to bypass the transformer and automatic voltage regulation (AVR) when utility power is normal, thus reducing energy consumption and associated costs. Because utility power functions normally most of the time, the bypass design allows for substantial energy savings. This technology also reduces heat generation, an important factor in decreasing operating costs.Sine Wave PowerIn the U.S., utility companies provide power to households and offices by distributing single phase alternating current (AC) power at a frequency of 60 Hz. Electrical power can be graphically depicted as a sine wave whereby the electrical signal alternates from +120 volts to -120 volts at a rate of 60 times per second (60 Hz). To enable more efficient operation of large, heavy equipment, utility companies provide commercial and industrial locations with three phase AC power which consists of three overlapping sine waves offset by 120 degrees.Although utility companies strive to distribute 100% sine wave power, many factors can introduce electrical noise into the AC power signal in the form of sine wave distortions and as voltage sags, surges, spikes, or other irregularities. Sine wave power is important for the optimal functioning of sensitive desktop computers and related peripheral equipment. Without sine wave power output, microprocessor-based equipment can become inoperative or sustain damage from power signal distortions.Active Power Factor Correction Supplies for IT EquipmentDuring the past thirty years, people have become more aware of the amount of energy used by IT equipment and devices. For many years, desktop computers and workstations inefficiently consumed power, partly due to the design of the power supplies which transformed AC power (from the wall outlet) to DC power (used by computers). This voltage transformation was relatively inefficient as reflected in low power factor ratings.In 1992, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in collaboration with advocates in the IT industry, developed the ENERGY STAR program to prompt the development of energy-efficient products. Today this program is recognized as an international standard.To comply with ENERGY STAR standards, manufacturers of desktop and workstation computers incorporate Active Power Factor Correction (Active PFC) as part of the engineering designs, enabling energy efficiencies of 95% or higher. Computers with Active PFC power supplies require sine wave AC power, as supplied by utility companies, for trouble-free operation. For this reason, sine wave UPS systems have become the best choice for backup power.Simulated or stepped sine wave power, provided by entry-level UPS systems, may be problematic or incompatible with Active PFC devices. Sine wave power varies continuously from positive to negative. Simulated sine wave power mimics a sine wave by using a squared-off approximation. Due to this approximation, simulated sine wave power momentarily creates a zero power gap. When power is interrupted, a computer with an Active PFC power supply may not recognize incoming simulated sine wave power due to the zero output present in the approximated wave. This could cause the system to unexpectedly shut down or sustain system component stress.Automatic Voltage RegulationAutomatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) in line interactive UPS systems stabilizes the incoming AC signal to maintain output power at a nominal 120 volts by controlling high and low voltages without resorting to battery power. This significantly increases battery life and lessens the likelihood of data loss, memory freezes, and system crashes.Transformers and Transformer OutletsA transformer converts alternating current line voltage to a higher value or a lower value. Transformers rely upon electromagnetic induction, the process which occurs when the alternating current within a circuit generates current in a nearby circuit.Transformers vary in design and size, as well as using different amounts of current. Small transformers plug into a wall outlet and create low direct current voltages which are used by common electronic devices. Transformer outlets are more widely spaced than other outlets to accommodate transformer block adapters or other adapters that are large in size. Transformer outlets can be used to connect any appropriate device to a surge protector.

Used CyberPower PFC Sinewave Computer Battery Backup, 1500VA 900W UPS, 10 Outlets undefined

I used to be incredibly brand loyal to a different manufacturer, but after a lot of recent letdowns, I decided to give Cyberpower a try. About 3 years in to my first unit and it hasn't let me down once. Cyberpower is now me brand of choice for power backup.

Won me over

Almost 3 years old now and have had zero issues. mostly bought this because of the thunderstorms in Florida. It powers my owc 8 bay which is full of drives for about an hour and a half during the storms.

3 years no problems

Got it to protect some home theater equipment. Does the job to allow time for a proper shutdown.

Pure sine wave UPS does what it's supposed to

CyberPower PFC UPS 1500VA

The pictures on the website show the newest model of this well regarded UPS.  The tech specs listed 10 vs 12 recepticles and older info based on the previous model.  The price was also the best I could find for this UPS, so I figured if it happened to be the older model, I would still be satisfied.  Fortunately, they 12 plug new model arrived in a few days and has worked flawlessly in my home office setup.  I have it supporting supporting my networking, modem, wifi, primary desktop, and a full sized Dell T610 tower server running a lab.  During standard usage on all of that, I pull about half capacity on the UPS, and it show an aproximated runtime of 12-14 minutes.  I'm not massively concerned with runtime after power outage, but I get brownouts and blips that this keeps from downing my systems.  I plan testing it with just modem, router and wifi one evening to see what the runtime would be with most things down save for connectivity during storms, etc.

Great UPS and the newest model with 12 plugs.

Works great and easy to setup and get going

Works very well

I would rate the UPS pretty darn good over all. Paired it with my gaming rig, Mac & a couple monitors and it's been handling it well. I tried simulating a power outage myself and it held up just fine enough. The display is really cool and shows me how much power the plugged in components are drawing in real time. 

One quirk about the display is that it does not show a power output value (shows 0 watts otherwise) if the devices plugged in do not draw more than 30 watts of power. I found that kinda weird, but otherwise for a active PFC UPS, this is doing the job real fine.

Great (HEAVY!) UPS for the price

Love it so far. I?ve only been using it for about 2 weeks but my power did go out once and it held up just fine! Definitely recommend!

Awesome UPS

Such an awesome purchase. Definitely delegates and uses power appropriately. I live in an area with regular brown outs and power surges and with my pc plug into this, I have no problems

Amazing

I had 4 power surge or drop in last 2 month, it worked and protected me well.

Quality is class AAA

this has saved me so much time w the power drops here in florida

this is a great product

Had one before that quit many years ago after going through 2 sets of replacement batteries. I opted for a new unit with new electronics that wasn't worn out! First one treated me better than the APC I have.

Great value

Worked out of the box. Already had one but needed another for all of my equipment

Works as expected

Cyber power 1500VA 12 V LCD UPS Tower

Nice

I've had good luck with cyber Power, and this one keeps the streak.  Always a good value.  Its reserve will run my system for 45 minutes.

Good Value

I will rate this UPS very high. It's only drawback is the size and weight. It installed easily and started protecting my surround equipment immediately. No power off as of yet but I am sure it will work flawlessly.

UPS Rates very high.

Caught fire under my desk 2hrs after plugging it in.

Fire hazard

Worked great during a recent outage. I only have a WiFi router plugged into it, kept it powered for at least 6 hours.

Works great!

Happy with the product, set up was simple.

Great

I have older UPS units and this is my first in a few years.  Seems vert good up to this point.  Will add a star and more info after I get to test it out.  Priced very well as it was on sale!

Good UPS

It's working.   Had a couple of power outage and my computer still stays on.   A Ryzen 3600, 750w psu, P2000 gpu with 24" monitor plugged in,  it says i have 52 minutes of backup time.   Satisfied so far.

Works with my computer

Super

Solid build, awesome performance

I only just installed it today, so this review is somewhat limited.  So I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt and giving it 4 stars.  It seems to be working fine.  The display is neat and informative.  But there are a couple of drawbacks.  This unit is big and heavy.  You'll need a bit of real estate on your desk or shelf.    More importantly, the outlets on the back only allow for one large plug (i.e., those with the transformer at the plug).  I had two and it took up all the space for the plugs on the "Surge" side.   Fortunately, everything I needed to plug in on the battery backup side had a 'regular' plug.    I'll also note that the outlets were pretty stiff at first, making it difficult to plug in the devices.  The one for the phone line was such that I gave up, not feeling it was secure.  I did use the protector for the coax and it seems to be working fine also.  All in all, if I had it to do again, I might think twice.

Works fine, with a couple of drawbacks

I got a great deal on this. Plugged it in and it works great on my network equipment. I wasn't too concerned about much other than finding a decent UPS that will keep my networking gear running longer than my computers when the power goes out.

Most of the credit I can give is to Adorama. This shipped really fast and was almost 50% off when I hit check out.

Great deal on a decent UPS

This CyberPower unit protects my video editing workstation, and does a great job!

Great Unit!

Fantastic Battery backup.  Met all my expectations.
