I'm not sure but i think you was ripped off -- i just ordered one from amazon - CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD PFC Sinewave UPS System, 1500VA/1000W, 12 Outlets, AVR, Mini Tower,Black -- $219 and as you can see it has 1000W and 12 outlets NOT 900W and 10 outlets! just letting you know Couse that is a big difference -- or am i not getting it right? this was 6 years ago but it is same modal # CP1500PFCLCD and watched another vid from 6 or 7 years ago with same # but it had 2 coax plugs too! so i may just not understand - i would thank with adding/changing product it would change # too? i dont get how the same # can have 3 completely deferent designs
Thank you for all the information. Very nice review! Please one question.. I notice that lcd after a while is turned off. Is there some option to stey always on? This is very important for me if you know to answer me it will be very helpful. Thanks man. Great review.
The VP700 model is very slick. Good enough for a small NAS. Has smart monitoring to switch off NAS automatically after preset time. Great value for money.
I appreciate the review. I just ordered one for a new desktop. In the past I have always used laptops and didn't consider the need for a backup until after the purchase. It would suck to loose all of your work over a brief power outage. This seems to be the answer. It could double as an emergency power source for other devices if needed.
@@bkmaker672 Stores power in batteries, so it doesn't make noise unless you turn the alarm on, which will alert you that an outage has taken place. I don't hear any fan noises or anything like that.
Just finished watching your review. I picked up the 1350VA 810 watt yesterday at my local best buy. They didn't have the 1500. My normal load hovers between 48 and 50 watt, so even this one is overkill. I had been using APC units and was getting to the point where they would switch to battery randomly when they didn't need to. From what I can figure, the iMac and UPS were having conflicts because the model of UPS i was using wasn't a pure Sine wave, which Macs prefer. After putting the CyberPower in place, things have been much more calm. Even with the sensitivity settings on the APC set to low, i couldn't get things to stay calm. The other advantage I like with the CyberPower, is it has software natively available for the mac, beyond the built in OS support. APC no longer developers PowerChute for the mac, so stuck with limited functionality. So far so good, I've set the sensitivity to low on here, and things look good. With the other units, even after exchanging for a new unit, it was only a matter of hours before the same conflict started up again.
I guess you could, it isn't light. I think there would be better battery options out there. Also, I would have to look at the instructions to see if you can turn off the sound when it is unplugged.
Just got mine in the mail from Amazon but 1 of the two i purchased is the same number but its more power its 1000w surge 880w power number on the box is CP1500PFCLCDa still was $129.00 on a black friday deal
This is a UPS (Uninterruptible power supply) for your computer/electronics. For improvement on running the Elgato smoothly that probably would be a computer upgrade.
It switches over fast. I haven't had an issue. The power company has been doing some work around our house and they have been switching over to battery a lot and I haven't had any downtime. I hope this helps.
This thing is a DOG! Now junk. This month, it started cutting out on me, without warning, without reason, crashing the attached computers. Completely shut down. No power line anomalies, not overloaded - only 2 computers running. Got an F03 error which indicates a malfunction of its charging system. Of course, just out of warranty. I bought it because of the perceived benefits, but this thing does NOT LAST. NO longevity. I looked up my notes and see that its predecessor was also a Cyberpower that suddenly went bad, just out of warranty and had to be trashed. I will be going with APC.
Thanks for the experience. I would still contact them just to see if this is something they can fixed or if they will fix it. I hope you get better results with the APC. I have had APC die right our of warranty as well that is why i went with Cyperpower for this purchase.

This was the old design; I have bought some newer ones over the years and design have changed. Good question on they are the same #.
Thank you for all the information. Very nice review!
Please one question..
I notice that lcd after a while is turned off. Is there some option to stey always on?

Thanks man.
Great review.
I don't know a way to always keep it on. I always just hit the display button. To wake it up.
@@GrayaOverload Thank you for your quick answer
@@G.Menounos No problem.
Thanks for the detailed review!
Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for the info!
4 years later - how's it holding up?
Very well. I think I should replace the batteries now. Other then that I haven't had any issues.
Is the CyberPower CP1500EPFCLCD UPS not making any sound? Or is it making any noise?
It is not making noise. If the power goes out it will beep to let you know there is no power.
@@GrayaOverload thx. Is the noise level zero? Does it have fans inside?
@@bkmaker672 I have never heard a fan. I haven't ripped it apart to check, but I don't think it has a fan. The noise level is zero.

Does the CyberPower CP1500EPFCLCD UPS make noise (completely silent)? Or does it make any noise?
@@bkmaker672 Stores power in batteries, so it doesn't make noise unless you turn the alarm on, which will alert you that an outage has taken place.
I don't hear any fan noises or anything like that.
@@qua7771 thx.
How are the batteries installed? Is one of them mounted upside down? Thanks
I would have to take it apart again but from what i remember they were not upside down.

Thanks for the write-up. I am sure others will find that helpful.
Does the CyberPower CP1500EPFCLCD UPS make noise (completely silent)? Or does it make any noise?
is this portable? can it be charged and used on the go?
I guess you could, it isn't light. I think there would be better battery options out there. Also, I would have to look at the instructions to see if you can turn off the sound when it is unplugged.
Hey! Not sure if you're still active on this, but mine just arrived and it was fully charged so it got me worried. Do you recall if this normal?
I picked up another one this year and it was mostly charge. They test the batteries when manufacturing so this is a side effect of that.
@@GrayaOverload Great, thanks!

Thanks Graya Clear and concise. Robert
Does this allow to run el gato smoothly ????
This is a UPS (Uninterruptible power supply) for your computer/electronics. For improvement on running the Elgato smoothly that probably would be a computer upgrade.
Need one that can switch over fast
It switches over fast. I haven't had an issue. The power company has been doing some work around our house and they have been switching over to battery a lot and I haven't had any downtime. I hope this helps.
I JUST BAUGHT ONE WATCHING REview after :))))))))))
Same!!! I got the 1000 watt version though!!
