CP1500AVRLCD3 Intelligent LCD UPS Battery Backup and Surge Protector, 1500VA/900W, 12 Outlets, 2 USB Ports, AVR, Mini Tower, UL Certified

This UPS works well, and is a good upgrade to my previous UPS device (which strangely never started again after carefully I changed out the then-current battery for the brand-new replacement, no matter how closely I followed the manufacturer's advice). This CyberPower unit has a couple more power sockets then the deceased APC unit, and has a surge suppressor for Ethernet cable, which is more important to me than the 'phone wiring surge suppressor in the old unit. There's also a USB port (and included cable) that lets me connect the UPS to a USB connector on my main computer, and without installing any software a control panel lets me adjust the parameters for computer and/or display sleep under mains power vs. battery power. The front-panel screen is easy to use, although I haven't bothered to make changes to the more advanced features yet. Apparently I'm drawing so little power from it (although I have at least 18 devices powered by it) that the display shows a power draw of zero watts / zero load and a runtime on battery of 450 minutes. Clearly that can't be completely accurate, but it's good to know that I've got a reasonable uptime figure on the battery-backed outputs. I chose this model partly because the taller/slimmer form factor is a good fit for where I placed it (where its predecessor was), on the inner floor of a desk cabinet with floor-to-desk height. There's enough airflow (I added a fan long ago), even with the door to the cabinet mostly closed. I tend to leave the equipment it's connected to turned on, and most of it goes into low-power mode after a period of inactivity. Although the UPS's display is set to dim after a while, the UPS isn't really going into sleep mode, which I gather would starve some of my active gear of power and cause abrupt shut-downs for the computing devices, so I'm leaving it that way. I haven't needed to contact the company's tech support folks, and I hope I never need to. I hope that this unit lasts a good long while, and won't expire when the battery needs to be changed. I have an older/smaller CyberPower unit, for which the recent battery change went flawlessly. So far so good, and I hope it stays good.

I purchased this UPS to provide consistent power for the Wi-Fi system at our lake house. The power is notoriously shaky there with many blink outs and short outages, just long enough to make my router refuse to sync back up. So I purchased this UPS and charged it up as directed by instructions at my home. Then I plugged in 2 home routers, trying to simulate what would be plugged in at the lake house. I was expecting maybe 2 hours of operation before power depletion. Was I wrong. But in a good way! When I unplugged the UPS, simulating an outage, the readout indicated 425 min of back-up power with power draw of my 2 routers....Far better than I expected. I ran a test and the UPS kept my Wi-Fi running for over 8 hours....and I was streaming! At the lake house, WIFI will only be for thermostat and security camera monitoring, so will probably last longer. Very impressed!! This UPS should save a bunch of Wi-Fi getting kicked off-line due to power outage situations. These are very annoying when hundreds of miles away and the only way to reset my router is to manually hit the reset button. So far, I love it!!!

The grid is terrible where I live. Spring rain is enough to cause intermittent power loss for like a minute at a time. I got this as a mini backup generator for my room. there are plenty of outlets on this to power a bedroom, thought you might need an extension chord or 2 depending on your layout. It can run for about 40 mins under idle load (A computer in browser, a few monitors, a router and modem, a fan, low draw stuff like that.) plenty of time to get your business wrapped up or saved. Gaming on the other hand will get you 5 - 20mins depending on the game you're playing. Enough to prevent interruption from intermittent power but not enough to keep gaming on no power. I wouldn't let it run to depletion, Its like a car battery. once its depleted, its never gonna recharge the same. I'd call It quits at 5 mins left. Also it does make a noise when the back up kicks in. A like car batteries, if you're gonna disconnect the unit for days or weeks at a time, disconnect the battery, it still have some idle load on it with nothing connected. Over all excellent purchase! 5 star

The CyberPower CP1500AVRLCD3 Intelligent LCD UPS System (1500VA/900W, 12 Outlets, 2 USB Ports, AVR, Mini Tower, Black) is an exceptional uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for protecting electronics from power outages, surges, and voltage fluctuations. For my home office setup, including a desktop PC, monitors, and networking gear, this unit has delivered outstanding performance, easy setup, and quiet operation, making it a top choice for reliable power management. Packaging and Setup The UPS arrived securely packaged, with the unit, 6-foot power cord, USB cable, and manual well-protected against damage. Setup was seamless, taking about 10 minutes. I plugged the UPS into a grounded outlet, connected devices to the 12 NEMA 5-15R outlets (six battery/surge-protected, six surge-only), and powered it on. The PowerPanel Personal Edition software (downloadable) installed effortlessly on my PC for detailed monitoring and customization. The two USB ports (Type-A and Type-C) were a welcome addition, allowing me to charge my phone and tablet directly from the unit. Design and Build Quality The mini-tower design (23.8 lbs, 10.2”H x 3.9”W x 13.7”D) is compact and sturdy, fitting neatly under my desk. The multifunction LCD panel is a highlight, providing clear, color-coded data on load capacity, battery status, and runtime (green for normal, yellow for warning, red for faults). The Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) stabilizes minor power fluctuations without draining the battery, a crucial feature in my area with occasional brownouts. The unit’s simulated sine wave output works perfectly with my non-PFC power supply devices, and the durable black finish blends seamlessly into my office. Notably, the unit is very quiet, with no noticeable fan noise, even during battery operation, making it ideal for noise-sensitive environments. Performance The CP1500AVRLCD3 performed flawlessly from the start. I connected my desktop PC (estimated 300W load), a 27” monitor, router, and external hard drive to the battery/surge outlets, with printers and speakers on surge-only outlets. During a simulated power outage (unplugging the unit), it switched to battery power instantly, providing about 25 minutes of runtime at 350W—plenty for safe shutdowns. The AVR handled minor voltage dips effectively, preserving battery life. The LCD’s runtime estimates were spot-on, and the USB ports provided consistent charging. The unit’s self-test function (run on startup) confirms ongoing reliability, and I’ve had no issues despite frequent use. The three-year warranty and $500,000 Connected Equipment Guarantee add significant confidence. Pros Easy setup: Configures in minutes with user-friendly software. Informative LCD: Real-time, clear power and battery status display. Quiet operation: No noticeable fan noise, perfect for home offices. Ample outlets: 12 outlets (six battery/surge, six surge-only) for multiple devices. AVR functionality: Stabilizes voltage, extending battery life. Cons Weight: At 23.8 lbs, it’s not easily portable. Cord length: 6-foot power cord may require an extension in some setups. Conclusion The CyberPower CP1500AVRLCD3 is a dependable, quiet, and feature-packed UPS for home offices or small setups needing robust power protection. Its straightforward setup, detailed LCD, silent operation, and AVR make it ideal for managing outages and fluctuations, while the USB ports and numerous outlets add versatility. Though slightly heavy, its performance and reliability make it a standout. Highly recommended for safeguarding electronics and ensuring data protection.

I've been using CyberPower UPS systems for many years. Historically I've had one for my computer and accessories, and one in the living room which is mostly to keep our wireless router running when there's a power outage. They have all of the features I need, but...longevity has been a problem. This one was a full replacement of a unit whose internal battery was replaced a year or so ago. For whatever reason it just stopped working, and no amount of probing around for problems was going to fix it. Then we had a power outage and the one in the living room lasted about 10 minutes with minimal load before it was drained. I started hunting for another new battery and eventually decided to spend a little more and get a Lithium unit instead. The CyberPower replacement batteries are rather expensive and they don't seem to last that long. We'll see how the lithium unit does.

We’ve had a few power cycles at the office recently, and this UPS has done exactly what we needed it to do. Our multi-monitor, high-powered PCs stay on long enough for us to safely shut everything down, which is a huge relief. Setup was straightforward, and the display is helpful for keeping an eye on things. It gives us peace of mind knowing our equipment is protected. Overall, a solid and reliable unit.

I abuse everything i own so this is just normal testing for me. The UPS works great on a high end PC but i had my roommate want coffee real bad one morning after we had no power during the night. I turned the breaker off to isolate my PC and plugged in a 1000w microwave. It ran for about 6 minutes before it was fully drained, but it bounced back just great when i flipped the switch back on with the PC. If i can trust it enough to drain so fast with no overheating or excessive draining its a solid UPS.

Great power backup for my desktop. This UPS had a bunch of nice features, including a real-time power meter so you can see how close you are to the 900W maximum (really, one should only load to 80% - so closer to 700W). During boot, my desktop takes up to 250W, but runs consistently at 100-125W. It also checks the boxes on: 1. Can disable the sound (when sleeping, this is irritating), 2. Can disable the front display, 3. The battery is replaceable. I have a couple of the other brand of UPS's, and they state that the battery is NOT replaceable (and they make it very hard to disassemble to replace the battery). Anyway, we have six of this brand of UPS in our home to protect all our electronics from surges and for the short period of time between when the power goes out and our generator kicks in (usually 15 seconds or so).

Fonctionne très bien avec une bonne autonomie, le Wi-Fi est branché et me donne une autonomie de 7h.

¡Funciona genial! Muy contento

I've had this for a few years now and it's been running non-stop with no problems. It definitely helps when I'm working or gaming to prevent any damage or equipment shutting off during power interruptions. I have the powering my PC and one of my monitors without any issues. I bought this to replace an older APC unit that had an annoying alarm that I couldn't shut off due to my system drawing too much power. Because of this hardware issue with the APC I went with cyberpower and I really like the features of this one better. The older unit went to my internet hardware to prevent any loss of connection. I recommend getting less powerful battery backup for your internet hardware as well but this one might be a little bit overkill for that stuff alone.

Es el quinto que compro para casa y exceptuando el anterior que compré no me han decepcionado, al anterior no le duraron los tres años las baterías por un par de meses mientras que todos los demás siguen funcionando. Tuve uno de 350VA otro de 550VA hace años, posteriormente compré uno de 1350VA en 2020 que aún está en funcionamiento, en 2021 se compraron 3 de 1500VA, dos para un hijo y uno para mi, es este último (CyberPower CP1500AVRLCD) al que le fallaron las baterías a dos meses de cumplir los tres años (las cambiaré para utilizar en otro lado). Espero que haya sido la unidad ya que hasta la fecha tengo buena opinión de la marca.

El producto llegó a tiempo y correctamente empaquetado, sin embargo no prende de ninguna forma. Espero al menos me lo cambien por uno que funcione.
