Most consumer models are square wave voltage output which damage active PFC's in modern electronics. In 220 voltage models the output voltages are in the range of 150v.We have seen APC and other companies selling the same models with same technology since 2012. They manufacture users' irreplaceable backup battery. The control panels are often complicated even a technician has trouble understanding. Impossible to carry them on the flight because no clear safety instructions
100% Why are there no wifi models so you can remotely monitor the UPS, as well as the ability to switch off the blinding LCD screens? No ability to mute alarms. Just old, old, old tech.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I understand your concern about UPS development, but I think the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series could be a game-changer. With its massive capacity, fast recharging, and versatile sockets, it's perfect for outdoor enthusiasts like us. Plus, the waterproof technology is a great bonus. Check it out if you're looking for reliable backup power!
APC decided to use aluminum wire in their transformers that have caused some issues.. Cyberpower uses the yellow glue that can become conductive overtime. It's a gamble either way..
@@DailyGrindWorkout subject to the load applied. like any battery, a 1,000 mAh battery can provide 1,000 mAh, if your load is 100 mAh , that means 10 hours. if its 500 mAh, that is 2 hours. You need more battery to store more power to use for longer. This 'maximum time' nonsense is all calculated on VA, which makes the math different.
My Cyberpower 1500PFCLCD just fried out of warranty, but it is filled with yellow and brown corrosive glue, I would think a build flaw should be covered regardless of warranty if it is “Time bomb” as some vids have claimed I’m calling tomorrow to see what’s up but beware
hi all i really have a question that up until now it has never been answered, i play mmorpg games we tend to leave our pc system turned on 24/7 so can i leave the UPS turned on 24.7 too? because the UPS device can be warm to touch, Tia!
Hello, i was looking for a decent protection for my new gaming pc. I made my decicion because i had two defective laptops in the past few years and both of them had the same issues. I strongly believe that there is something wrong with the power in the building i live. I was wondering if anyone can recomend me a very good ups for all round protection.. i dont really have issues with power outtages, i think its rather voltage spikes and corrupt electricity flow since its an old building with old electronical system. I need to run a 4070, 14600kf with a 750watts psu as soon as possible because i need it for my job. Any reccomendations by heart? Very appreciated since all this stuff and numbers are driving me nuts. Just need a good protection to smoothen out electricity peoperly.
they tend to use deep storage lead acid batteries, so they don't charge fast. they usually take 8 hours to charge. sometimes longer, sometimes the better ones trickle charge the last 5-10%. So you might charge from 30-90% real fast, but then take hours to top off. This is to help prolong the battery life.
Ups a life changer my area once or twice a month have this program from 8am to 5pm no electricity or 9pm to 5am for environmental friendly once that happen it caused no cecullar signal also and it annoying I just want to enjoy my weekend but no electricity so this UPS at least make me have a internet access
Call it what it is so consumers know. Line interactive is a very close approximation of pure sine wave, uses less power, than Online power-conditioning UPS, which have CLEANEST power, better than mains, has ZERO switchover time, but use more power and start at like 3x cost of line interactive. They have BIG fan, runs full time. DO NOT buy sine wave approximation UPS. Line interactive is not invented by CP, all brands have models. FYI Eaton/Tripp-Lite is used by enterprise. Eaton bought them.
Anyone can advise if a top high end gaming pc for e.g a 13900k cpu and rtx 4090 Gpu setup is suitable to pair with the APC BR1500G UPS? Is the 865W enough?
You most likely got the answer by now, but it doesn't hurt to reply to help anyone else. To protect your system yes it's enough. to keep your system running (longer than 10 mins no you may not.) if you're gaming and suddenly experience power loss it's definitely enough to protect your components by properly exiting game, save whatever opened file or running program you have (such as editing softwares, streaming, etc) then shutting down. Measure the total wattage of your system and have at least 300watts as headroom. in this case. 1000w is more than enough with the 1500va rating.
I'd go with the 900 watt atleast. I'm going to be building a 13700k and 6950xt and trying to figure out if 900watt is enough or if I should try to get the 1500 watt which is nearly $500 vs $200 for the 900 watt
I love how gaming is all you talk about in the "importance" of why one of these is needed. What a sad, pathatic world we live in when precious gaming sessions need protection....
You sound bitter. Most people who seek out or research these low-end UPS need it for gaming purposes to save data. If you want UPs for more "high-end" purposes, don't turn to cheaper alternatives on a channel that is GEARED towards that. Idiots.
I don’t think it’s focusing on gaming, I think it’s meaning the equipment you are using to game on. The customer PCs and even modern gaming systems are very expensive and when running when the power kicks off you are putting the system at risk. That’s what he meant. Not to say the point you made isn’t totally valid, I just think you may of missed the point.
What a concomitance, I also happened to devour a thesaurus this morning. A surge of knowledge traveled through my mind, tremendously boosting my lexicon.

Ups are the most neglected and have shown the least devolopment in the era of modern electronics
Not particularly considering a lot of companies use it for their servers so that they don’t shut down

@@ARLGDwow I had not come across these. Amazing, I will be upgrading.

@@LunaticSpice What did you get? I have the same problem
Is there a ups that works for atleast 8 hours?
@@DailyGrindWorkout you can change/rewire the battery for an outside one, you can hook up as many as you want.
@DailyGrindWorkout The sun and the wind, along with a Tesla power wall should do it.

been 3 months, care to share what happened after? thinking of buying that one
Does the UPS connect to the wall outlet or to another surge protector?
Wall outlet
Wow, that last unit, the APC1500G looks like it's been down some rough road.

Hey I have this problem also I have the cyber power 1500va
Really helpful it will greatly help me find what I need.
How good is the typical UPS at charging it's battery?
they tend to use deep storage lead acid batteries, so they don't charge fast. they usually take 8 hours to charge. sometimes longer, sometimes the better ones trickle charge the last 5-10%. So you might charge from 30-90% real fast, but then take hours to top off. This is to help prolong the battery life.
Its product specification claims that it provides stabilized Pure Sine Wave output. What do you mean by 'it doesn't have a pure sine wave system'?
Ups a life changer my area once or twice a month have this program from 8am to 5pm no electricity or 9pm to 5am for environmental friendly once that happen it caused no cecullar signal also and it annoying I just want to enjoy my weekend but no electricity so this UPS at least make me have a internet access
Any recommendations on a battery that I could plug my coffee maker into?

What about prices
What's the best brand that I should be looking for UPS Battery Backup?
All UPS will not work from generator mode. Where all flats have now with generator
