Best review I have seen for this, well explained and as someone who doesnt even use or know much about power surges I can say for sure. Thanks to your explanation I now know how my computer functions
I own and use a older version of the UPS, love it. If you are going to buy Cyber Power, buy this unit. You may not need all it's capability, but with more capacity than you need, but when the power goes down, it is nice to look down and see you have some extra time to save what you are working.
Great addition for added backup power security.
Thanks for a basic review and not trying to sound like some tech guru. This is what I needed before I buy, thank again.
I"m gonna open this up and play with it, now I'm gonna plug it in. You the man.
I have my pellet stove plugged into it during the winter Incase we lose power, it will prevent my home from getting smoked out, it happened a few years ago when we lost power and the exhaust fan shut off but the fire was still burning. This unit is awesome
I would say that was a pretty in depth review. I think the only thing you forget to say was what the unit smelled like lol. This is the type of review that someone needs when they are in the market for a UPS. Thanks, great job.
thanks for the clear Detail.. I just ordered it. hopefully it will be here before xmas
Great review ... simple and to the point!
Thank you. Excellent review. Off to Best Buy tomorrow.
The way you said "Cyberpower" was enough for me to hit the like button LOL! 😄😄😄
Edited 2/21 - After the Snowpocalypse we experienced in TX last week, I'm definitely looking into this. THX!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I bought mine for that very reason, I also had multiple outages before that nightmare last week, so it was time! Just received it today
This unit is designed to run sensitive equipment for a few minutes at higher loads. At lower loads you’re looking at an hour give it take if run time. For longer term grid down look for a solar generator unit. Something like inergy flex or jackery portable power station.
This thing is a lifesaver, according to the device I’ve had 189 power outages since I purchased this in Jan 21, 2021 so 189 outages in 6 months
This answered all the questions I had about the unit. Well thought out review!
I just got one of these, amazing UPS, im in love with it
Thanks for the review and actually connecting hardware to it. ;)
like very much the way you explain very slowly with clear language and word emphasis
Thanks for the unbiased review. Some people praise products simply because they were sent a free one.
Great review! I'm considering purchase, and the views of battery replacement and the rear internals were very helpful. They seem to be popular and out of stock everywhere I'm looking
Love your retro phone ☎️ hanging on your desk
Thank you for posting this video.
Thank you for your review. It is exactly what I was looking for. I work from home and my system uses 85 to 90 watts so I was curious as to how long it could last on a ups. THANK YOU!!!
great review. living in tampa florida lightning capitol of the world this should be mandatory in everyones house hehe :)
Great video! Thanks!
Very well explained. Thank you!
Thank you!! I am researching UPS. That is a Business model. You can purchase an additional card for remote management. I was close to buying this one but if you don't need remote management or care about the color screen I think the Costco CST 1500S is a better value at $180. It's 100 less watts, has coax in/out surge protection where this model doesn't. But only 2 USB A's. No USB C port. Appreciate you sharing real world use.
Thanks well executed .
Thanks for the great video. This thing rocks.
Hey man great review! I just got mine & it works great. (But it came with a full battery so I didnt have to recharge for 8 hours). Looks like the UK models are different to the one you have.Uses the same model number & pure sine wave protection but it doesnt have USB-C port :(
Nice video! I have one for my TV, PS4 and internet modem
Thank you helped a lot
Forever a kid... I clearly remember, when I was 6, fiddling with my toys as I was sitting on the carpet in sox and jammies. Bliss...
great review, thank you
Well done !!!
great review, very functional.
Great video sir. Thanks.
thanks! this is great
Glad it was helpful!
Best UPS and best review.
I have the 2015 model, just replaced the batteries, I think I got an upgrade. It seems the original batteries were 6amp/hr, and I bought 9amp/hr batteries for replacements. I use it to backup the WiFi, network, and security system, etc. I have a smaller APC SC620 for my monitor and desktop. All should be enough until the generator is running.
I recently bought a GX1500U model five days ago. My only major complaint is the strong electronic smell it has. It's still strong enough to irritate my eyes after a little while. Unit is not hot at all. My old APC never had any smell even when brand new.
Interesting, seems like an upgraded model of the one I currently have. Wonder if they'll make an Australian version of this one eventually.
Perfect!
super nice review.
nice monitor!
Just bought this exact model
nice review
Answering the important question... How long do you have to shut down your PC. I was thinking minutes but I guess an hour or more is plenty. lol... Good review.
I built a high end PC with a 6900XT and 850W PSU. This whole time I've had it connected to an old APC unit that's rated at 450W. I just started playing a game that maxed out my system and it shut off on me. I'd never questioned the actual wattage on these things until now despite always using them to avoid data loss and damage via dirty electricity from the bad quality power we get here.. Just ordered this unit.
so cool
Love your review. Is there a way to disable all beeping sounds?
Yes. Press the Mute button on the front for 2 seconds.
I just bought one and going to plug my computer and internet equipment in the surge protector, is it just plug n go? Or do I need to set something up in addition to? Is there a specific mode I should be selecting?
Is there a way to turn off the beeping when running off the battery?
When the UPS is inactive, so when the actual battery of the UPS is NOT required to support any power to connected devices, that the machine itself runs silent? I ask this because power outages are rare, so in the case of regular everyday use the UPS won't be making much noise? is that right?
Does this unit also show the wattage and the VA, and ect when also plugging other stuff into the surge protected outlets only?
Or both surge protected and the other surge protected as well
The avr u explained is for generator field excitation. The avr in this ups is just a transformer that has two extra taps for 80v and 140v so when the voltage falls below 100 it switches to the 80v tap and uses the "auto transformer" effect to bring 120v out and when the voltage goes above 140v it switches to 140v tap and lowers the output voltage again using the auto transformer but if the voltage goes out of range too much then it will switch back to battery power. Some even better units that are called "online ups" takes in the incoming voltage and turns it into dc then turns it into ac again those totally filter out any noise of waveform frequency issues from the incoming supply but those are definitely not need for desktop computers..the smps it self turns the incoming ac to dc and will happily run on anything that gives it enough voltage to run ac or dc doesn't matter.
thanks for the technical breakdown..always good to know what's actually happening in the background
Nice review. Wouldn’t your laptop automatically switch to battery power in the event of a power loss? The setup will be more valuable once you go with the desktop. At any rate I just bought one of these Cyberpower PF sinewave UPS’s too to deal with some wonky power coming from the utility. Looks like a great unit.
yes the laptop essentially has a built-in battery backup that will save it from power outages. But I am getting prepared for buying a new desktop computer where this CyberPower Backup will be needed. thanks
Have 3 of these as well as a rack mount and they are really nice units and usually around $50-$75 cheaper than APC. They have the same 3-year warranty and their battery replacements are usually a little cheaper too. Early on they didn't have a good reputation and deservedly so because the reliability and quality of their devices just wasn't there. Over the years they have steadily improved to the point their products are every bit as reliable as APC. That old reputation still follows them around though and reddit nerds will stupidity look down their nose at them.
Do they still use the yellow stuff?
Can I use this as a portable power bank for camping and power Dj speakers?
Do you have to let it charge for 8 hours before using it even if it’s plugged in? It says the battery is already at 100% when I bought it
Hello! Do I understand correctly that the fan doesn’t start as long as you have power in the house? Does the fan only work when the battery is turned on? Doesn't it make any other strange noises?
Great review. Im looking to buy this but have a question. I see a left and right side plugs. Does it matter what guts plugged in there ???
Grey plugs stay on when the power goes out.
Beautiful review. A quick question.
What is the battery capacity of this UPS in MAH ?
It uses HR1234W battery which is 7 AmpH. I have this, I like it. Edit: Actually I see HR1234W available that are 9AmpH, who knows. It uses one of those batteries though so you know approx.
Good day sir! Received mine and it does not power on. The faulty wiring light is on in every outlet I connect it to. Even tried charging for the eight hours nothing. It gives me the beep code for when powering down instead of powering on. Any thoughts
Questions
1. If this UPS is fully charged and turned off and is plugged out why does it make the beep sound and won’t come on? It only comes on when it’s plugged into a outlet
2. Should I keep this plugged in in my outlet always? Would it harm the battery and its life cycle? Or do I need to unplug and turn off when not in use?
3. How to use this device to make it lost for atleast 6 years? Because the last time I had one of these it’s only lost alittle over a year
Just got 2 from goodwill
I am considering whether to get this UPS or a Jackery mobile power device (because I will be camping). I see an overlap in functionality, to some extent, comparing the two but I’m afraid I can’t do it all with one device. The Jackery devices are set up for solar input whereas this is not. We do have power failures here in Florida, not to mention ⛈ lightning but I do not need constant power that badly.
for camping the jackery is better. this UPS is meant for running a computer or home theater with clean uninterrupted power.
Thanks, I was just day dreaming that there would be a convergence of products. The idea that “dirty power” is corrupting music listening or messing with computers is interesting but somewhat doubtful - and very expensive to correct. There is a revolution going on now as people are starting to question power and energy usage in homes and vehicles - where it comes from, is it most efficient, and is it good for the planet.
Mine didn't come with instructions or a USB cable. Did yours?
Do you have a tutorial for replacing the batteries?
Confused why they removed protection for my cable tv. My older cyberpower has it.
Good video, loved the peeling
Would this work with my garage door opener?
Please tell me, does this UPS have GREEN POWER technology? This function shuts down the UPS when there is a low load connected to it. If this feature exists, can it be disabled?
Does this work like a generator without being plugged in
does it have software to shutdown the computer if you are not around ?
How do you set it up so it always stays on
May I know how is a warranty policy? Will they provide a prepaid shipping label for a defective unit/battery to them?
They have the same warranty as APC
Question did you plug the main source of your PC into the surge protection side or the battery protected side. I'm assuming surge but just want to double check with anyone. 🙏
i plug everything into the battery side so they work during a power outage.
6 month update? any issues? clean power still clean? thanks for posting video!
hi, still running great. has saved me multiple times from little blackouts. I now have a proper 400watt max load desktop computer plugged into it and it handles it easily. thx
@@FunBubble how long does the charge last ?
@@FunBubble I'd also like to know about how long you're getting on this larger setup?
so that's the exact model that has a tendency to catch on fire.
Thank you for this video! I just got mine today =] I love it so far. The main thing I was fighting was that the freezer chest and my computer/PC components are plugged into the same outlet. Every time the freeze compressor would kick on/off, it would cause a very noticeable surge, even though I have the computer stuff on a surge protector (Random monitors would lose display for a 3-5 seconds, speakers would make a click/snap noise). No issues now that I have the ups!
Also, check out PowerPanel Personal or Cloud, if you want to see the UPS information on your computer/phone. The instructions weren't very clear on what software you can use to use the USB Port to PC: "USB communication port allows communication between the USB port on the computer and the UPS unit." You can see the event logs too with the power outages; a nice summary of the past 1, 4, 12 , & 24 weeks; Energy Reporting (estimated energy used in an amount of time you determine); as well as some advanced features: schedule shutdown, Notifications, runtime management, voltage settings, Self-testing, firmware updates, and more.
www.cyberpowersystems.com/products/software/
FYI The instructions state, "Make sure the wall branch outlet is protected by a fuse or circuit breaker and does not service equipment with large electrical demands (e.g. air conditioner, copier, etc.)
If my PSU is 1300W will it work for it?
I own a Cyberpower 1285 AVR that has not been used for a couple years. After charging for several hour with power button off than when I turn the power button on I get continuous fast flashing of the power button. the display screen says the battery is fully charged but when I unplug from the wall receptacle no battery power is available at any of the power out receptacle.
It needs new batteries. You ruined them by not keeping the unit plugged in and letting them discharge.
May I ask if you can set the software to shut down the computer for you after the power outage and when it runs on the battery?
You have to connect PC via the USB (maybe network or other) and run UPS software on the PC. Some systems eg TrueNAS Scale, have built in drivers for APC & Cyber Power UPS. This is Pure Sine Wave output on battery, which is better for many devices. Beware: one comment says Fire Risk on battery. I did not notice any glue used on the PCB, but Cyber Power use poor glue on some products, which goes brittle and conductive
How loud is the fan
Does your unit have a strange oder to it? I opened my new UPS, this exact model, and it smells like new but also has a smell I’m not familiar with.
Mine didnt have an unusual smell.
@@FunBubble Smell, YES. I've had mine plugged in and running for a couple of weeks and mine it still had an acrid smell to it. It's not nearly as noticeable as it was initially, but I still can feel it my eyes. Decided to stop using in my small office and dedicated it to other devices - as expected smell is gone. Battery leakage? Offgassing, not sure what the reason is, but definitely an issue.
I’ve watched this twice
In South Africa it is 2hrs of lost power..I.doubt this will work.
Both of mine have died. Not very old. Changed batteries, no power. A much older APC is still chugging along.
How much was it?
can you turn the beeping off?
So when I first bought mine I didn’t charge it, did I Fuck it up?
I don’t want to have broken mine
you'll be fine. they recommend fully recharging because if it sits on shelf before purchase it can lose charge over time. Once its plugged into wall power it'll recharge as normal.
Unplugging the power cord from a ups is not a good practice to simulate a power outage because you disconnect the earth connection as well. This can damage equipment connected to the ups battery backup outlet requiring an earth connection. Switching off the circuit breaker is the safer way to simulate a power outage for a ups.
Stop it. It won't hurt a thing.
I wonder for how long I can run a wifi on it. Thanks
All day
Can I use a ups to power an electric fan?
No that's illegal. Subject up to and including termination.
That loud beeping kills it for me
the beep can be turned off in settings. I like to leave it on so i'm reminded if the grid power stays off i should shut down the computer.
Just bought this unit and the power button immediately pushed in and broke, I'm still going to use it because I need it to protect my starlink but something to note for anyone doing research.
This is puresinewavw??
hi, yes it is Pure Sine Wave. Mine has been working great.
you look like Gilfoyle from silicon valley.
Can you turn off the super annoying beep?
hi, yes the buzz noise can be turned off completely
This product is a fire hazard. I bought 3 of them and tested. The transformer over heats on battery mode (on grid power outage). Started smoking and burning the any plastic that is touching the transformer. Lucky I was testing it so that I shut it down. Imagine I was not there when and the power goes out! I believe you haven't tested it to the thoroughly running it more than 6 Poorly and unsafely designed product, I would strongly recommend anyone NOT to use this product.
Why would you buy ups.
When you can buy lithium power station.
It doesn't last for minutes but hours of run time.🙃
