Needing a UPS

[Team Obi Juan]

Hey guys (and the few gals)

I'm in the market for a UPS. This is the one I am looking at:

Thoughts? Recommendations? Any of you fellow geeks have any experience with this particular model or brand? My last one was an APC and I wasn't impressed. Too much voltage variance and the batteries needed changing just about yearly.

Certainly seems cheap for that high a rating. Doesn't list runtimes at load though, that 85-95 minutes has to be unloaded given how small that unit is.

I've always used APC, currently a BR1500LCD almost 2 years so far on original battery. Curious what model you had before?

It's a dupe!

APC, Tripplite, and Cyberpower tend to be the most recommended brands.

I've been pretty happy with my APC XS1500.

THIS, I have an RS1500 and it has been running great for 3 years, I'm sure the battery is not at its prime, but seems to be ok still. Been looking for a replacement, Might have to pick up the XS.

Good luck Original OP
