Description
A mini-tower UPS with line interactive topology, the CyberPower PFC Sinewave CP1500PFCLCD provides battery backup (using sine wave output) and surge protection for desktop computers, workstations, networking devices, and home entertainment systems requiring active PFC power source compatibility. The CP1500PFCLCD features an advanced multifunction control panel with a color LCD to quickly confirm status and alerts at-a-glance. The screen tilts for easy viewing when the UPS is placed in a low position such as under a desk. Two USB charge ports (one Type-A and one Type-C) power portable devices such as mobile phones and tablets, even during a utility power failure. The CP1500PFCLCD uses Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, which extends battery life. AVR is essential in areas where power fluctuations occur frequently. The CP1500PFCLCD comes with a three-year warranty (including coverage of batteries) and a $500,000 Connected Equipment Guarantee.

Purchased this CyberPower unit about month ago. Have 2008 MacPro 8 core 3. GHZ fully loaded internally that was running for last couple years along with assorted Monitors-(2), printer etc. Had been using an APC 1500 & APC 1000- splitting various thing around plugged in to either one to share load. A MDD dual processor was in the mix but it was always on the opposite power supply, not both on one APC unit. For the last 3 yrs have been enduring endless stupidity with these APC power supplies. They would shut down randomly & repeatedly EVEN if the MacPro was not the one on that particular power UPS.Although for the most part - the UPS that was on the MacPro would shut down. You could switch a light on in another room- even a 1 bulb 75 watt could essentially trigger one of the 2 APC units to shut down as if they were overloaded. They were not. House is newer & wired correctly with 12 gauge/20 amp romex wire everywhere for any normal 110v outlets & 8 gauge 50 amp for 220v outlets & 200 amp service. The 2 power supplies are on their own line by themselves-nothing else. I am very familiar with house wiring & have rewired several homes I've owned. All wiring in house is up to snuff done properly. I tolerated this nonsense with these APC for years. They made absolutely no sense. I was aware at some point & positively as of recent reading that the 2008 MacPro's had PFC power supplies in them & that they would prefer pure sine wave power- as house current is. Even with that knowledge it still made no senses as to the random-regular weekly shutdown on the APC units with the computer asleep not even trying to wake or even having A TRUE power outage. The batteries checked out ALWAYS and if not hooked up to computer would work fine. If computer was awake & cut power they would hold system for as many minutes long as they were expected to. No problem. Just if asleep- turn light on anywhere in house- units sometimes/randomly cut out. If house current off & wake computers units shut down. Stupid really. Whats the point of the power supply ? (sounds like I am reviewing the APC's not CyberPower-right ?)Finally my MP had 8Gb of ram out of 16GB go bad. Had it replaced and I said that's it. I mean really- the APC power supplies were shutting down on a almost weekly basis & there wasn't even any power failures- the units themselves were THE power failures. Did as much research as possible regarding PFC power supplies & chose the CyberPower PFC 1500 unit. Cost more than the similar NON pure sine wave APC units. But cost quite a bit less than the Pure sine wave APC units. Who knows why APC charges so much for pure sine wave units. But after using their product probably for nearly 15 yrs- I was done. The CyberPower unit is a GREAT unit. Have read various reviews about the power switch(on unit-on/off & menu) etc problem some are having with it-I don't get the problem. It is a bit of a different technique how the button operates- but I picked it up quickly. The current power draw in numbers of watts as well as load capacity being used on the LCD display is great. You have real-time readout if you chose to, as to those numbers. It's like having Kill-A-Watt meter always on. You get to see the basic power fluctuations of your components. The unit is very compact- somewhat smaller than the APC 1500/1000 units. Right now connected with MacPro w/4 Hitachi 7200 rpm 64MB cache 3TB drives internal, ATI/Apple 5870 video card- w/3 24" monitors, epson 3800 printer, external OWC QX2 raid case w-4 hitachi 7200 rpm 32 MB cache 2TB drives & 2008 8 core MacPro booted off of that raid case along with MBP early 2011-17" plugged in but asleep, DSL modem, Dlink 8 port gigabit ethernet hub, 5th Gen AirPort extreme, MDD G/4 plugged in but off, the CyberPower shows a load of about 564 watts. That draw is confirmed accurate(slightly less actually for CyberPower unit itself not being in mix) if all were disconnected from CyberPower unit and plugged in- instead to the Kill-A=Watt meter. Everything asleep around 54 watts draw. I can switch ANY combination of light/appliance/central a/c /55" plasma/electric 220v clothes dryer/3.5HP 220v air compressor/ 5500watt electric heater- 500 gallon spa w/dual pumps etc in any combination on or off with computers asleep, awake, getting awake, going to sleep. UPS functions PERFECTLY & as expected- stellar performance. NO random shutdowns-nothing. Cut power to unit while computers asleep-no problem. You know the conclusion here -right? Pro's * Economical, compact, nice looking * PFC compatible- Pure Sine Wave unit. * Operates flawlessly * Cheaper than APC pure sine wave units * Power consumption/load LCD is very useful if you like that sort of thing-I do * 3yr warranty -same as APC Cons * Cost more than NON PFC compatible/Pure Sine Wave units * CyberPower warranty/service- unknown quality yet. APC was/had excellent service Conclusion. Highly recommended, especially if you have any of the MacPro's. I imagine some on PC side have units that are PFC and would require pure sine wave to operate a UPS on those computers properly also. I will not ever buy a UPS that is not a pure sine wave unit again.

I purchased my first of these UPS units in 2019, and it provided dependable service for years. The only maintenance it ever required was replacing the batteries every few years. In my experience with the many UPS systems I've owned, batteries typically last only 2–3 years, and this unit uses two of them. Replacing them is a simple process that only requires removing two screws and taking off the front panel. This time, however, when the unit displayed an error code, installing new batteries didn't solve the problem. It turned out that the internal charging circuit had failed, so the batteries were no longer being charged. Based on my experience, the charging system seems to be one of the weaker points of this model. Even so, I decided to purchase another one because the original unit gave me about seven years of reliable service, which I think is very reasonable for its price. The new unit arrived very well packaged, as shown in the photo. Setup was straightforward—just plug it in, turn it on, allow the batteries to fully charge, and then connect your equipment. Overall, I'm happy with this UPS. No product lasts forever, and getting seven years of dependable service from a reasonably priced unit is more than acceptable in my opinion. That's why I didn't hesitate to buy another one.

Had this about a month now. It's dead silent and just does its job in the background. Powers my PC and gaming monitor, and when the power actually goes out I'm getting close to 50 minutes of runtime — plenty of time to shut everything down clean. No complaints, does exactly what it's supposed to.

CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD PFC Sinewave So good, I bought 2! UPS systems in this class can easily cost more. I have had poor experience with APC systems in this range, so I gave CyberPower a shot. First one I bought for all my network equipment. I bought the optional network card as well. I have a couple routers attached, several WiFi Mesh base units attached by PoE router, laptop, NAS and a couple other items. I get 1 hour or more of uptime! (YMMV, yada yada) All the items I have attached amount to about 40% load if they are all on at the time. The 2nd UPS I bought about a year later for my home entertainment stuff - TV, stereo and a couple miscellaneous network items. Also gets about 1 hour uptime. No net card on the 2nd one, I wanted to test connecting it to HomeIt via HomeBridge and RPi. I don't need to manage these UPSs on a regular basis. We live in the mountains and power can be flaky. I wanted to have some way to monitor utility power when I was at work. The NIC adapter is perfect for that. I think it is a little on the $$ side, but has been worth it. Plugs right in and easy to configure. I started out with a 1 year promotional subscription to their service, but don't really need it. I still get power change notifications even without the subscription. When I get a power out notification I know I have about 1 hour of uptime before I need to turn on the generator. I did get the other CyberPower UPS to hook up pretty easily to my RPi unit running HomeBridge, with NUT UPS plugin. NUT can have a reasonably steep learning curve. I did get it working, but haven't really had the need to play with it too much since I still have the other UPS with the NIC. FWIW, I already had the RPi unit in place for a bunch of other IoT integrations with HomeKit - I would not go that route just for UPS management! ;P A word about generators: Most UPS systems will not play nicely with your standard portable open frame generator, regardless of how large/stable it is. It's the shape of the stepped wave that can often fool the UPS causing it to trip on. The only foolproof way around that is to 1) Get an online UPS system at 3-5 times the cost of line-interactive 2) get an inverter generator. Don't get too fooled by 'generator' modes on line-interactive or standby UPS types. Those modes may help, but in my experience it will not work 100% of the time. Initially I had a standard Champion 7kw open frame delivering power to whole house. Performance was rock solid voltage and frequency delivery without fluctuation. These CyberPower systems worked off the generator about 75% of the time, tripping on the rest of the time. I have a couple APC systems with 'generator' mode that would have nothing to do with the generator - they would trip instantly even in 'generator' mode. Still, this was not stable enough for me. My solution was to get the inverter generator - a 9kw Westinghouse delivering power to the whole house. It was actually cheaper than getting an online UPS equivalent to this CyberPower! Ultimately it wasn't just the lower cost, but the versatility and stability of delivering super clean pure sine to the whole house. Better for everything inside. Zero issues, of course, with these CyberPwoer UPSs. They just see the generator output as regular utility power.

Same great UPS back up. Been using CYBERPOWER for 24 years. Someone mentioned in their post is not compatible with generator power. Just to let everybody know, I don’t have any issues using a GENERATOR/INVERTER THAT PRODUCES CLEAN POWER 3% I’LL CALL IT THD. I FORGOT TO USE BACK UP POWER TO YOUR HOME AND YOU HAVE MODERN FLATSCREEN TV TVS WITH CIRCUIT BOARDS AND A NEWER FURNACE AIR-CONDITIONING WITH A CIRCUIT BOARD, AND EVERYTHING ELSE IN YOUR HOUSE LIKE A COMPUTERS WITH A MOTHERBOARD AND CIRCUIT BOARDS EVEN YOUR REFRIGERATORS WITH CIRCUIT BOARDS FREEZERS MAY HAVE A CIRCUIT BOARD, FOLLOWING MY TREND HERE, CIRCUIT BOARDS, MODERN ELECTRONICS YOU MUST USE A GENERATOR/INVERTER DO NOT USE THE OLDER GENERATORS. IT MAY WORK FOR A WHILE AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, WHY DO I NEED A NEW MOTHERBOARD IN MY FURNACE? WHAT HAPPENED THERE BECAUSE YOUR GENERATOR WITH IT DIRTY POWER LOAD 15 2025% POWER WELL THAT’S A PROBLEM AND THEY WILL DAMAGE SENSITIVE CIRCUITS. . YOU DON’T BELIEVE ME JUST GOOGLE IT IT’S EVERYWHERE. HERE’S A TIP 2 TON CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING, year 2016 NEWER FURNACE AND AIR CONDITIONING. IT’S 10 YEARS OLD NOT THE BEST BRAND IN THE WORLD BUT IT’S BEEN GOOD TO ME FOR 35 YEARS. THE PREVIOUS ONE LASTED 25 YEARS. I GOT RID OF IT. I’M STILL WORKING FINE.. 25 YEARS ON ANY HEAT EXCHANGER YOU GONNA END UP WITH CARBON MONOXIDE IN YOUR HOME SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A CO2 DETECTOR. I KNOW I’M GIVING WAY TOO MUCH INFORMATION HERE AND I’M PROBABLY NOT GONNA GET THIS POSTED. THEY’RE GONNA KNOCK IT OUT.. I’LL HAVE TO REWRITE IT MAYBE NOT LET’S SEE WHAT HAPPENS. I’M TAKING MY TIME TO GIVE TIPS AND SAFETY TIPS TO PEOPLE SO THEY DON’T GET HURT OR THEY DON’T RUIN ANY OF THEIR SENSITIVE ELECTRONICS AND IT COST THEM A LOT OF MONEY MONEY TO ME IS A BIG DEAL LIKE MOST PEOPLE LIKE JUST ABOUT EVERYBODY THAT I KNOW I AM AN ACCOUNTANT AND IT’S FOLLOW THE MONEY. GENERATORS THAT ARE NOT GENERATOR INVERTERS. THE POWER IS NOT THAT CLEAN. IT CAN GO IN THE CATEGORY OF 15, 20, 25% DIRTY POWER DEPENDING ON THE MANUFACTURERS SPECS.. AND MOST MANUFACTURERS DO NOT LIST THAT AT ALL YOU HAVE TO WRITE TO THEM AND TO TRY TO PRY IT OUT OF HIM TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS. THIS MODERN DAY AND AGE THAT WE LIVE IN IF YOU’RE GONNA USE BACK UP POWER FOR YOUR HOME LIKE I DO, WHICH IS FANTASTIC WHEN THE POWER GOES OUT AND YOU CAN RUN EVERYTHING IN YOUR HOME, YOUR AIR CONDITIONING, YOUR FURNACE. DON’T USE YOUR WASHER AND DRYER AT THE TIME THE UTILITY POWER I# OUT . JUST WAIT TILL YOU’RE BACK ONLINE WITH UTIL.. I’M RUNNING TWO REFRIGERATORS A STANDUP FREEZER, SPACE HEATERS BY DRE0 I FOUND THEM TO BE THE BEST EVER SINCE SLICED BREAD MY GOD THEY’RE GREAT. THEIR TECHNOLOGY IS JUST FANTASTIC OVER THE OLD MILK CAN STYLE OR CERAMIC HEAT UP STONE TO TRY TO CREATE HEAT. I would recommend a brand of a back up power generator/inverter for a home, which is fantastic, but I don’t know if they’ll let me post this if I do that so I’m not going to the tip. I can give you a clue it cost four times less than the highest cost Japanese brand which is also an excellent brand but I spent four times the amount of money you know $6000 versus $1500. There’s a big difference.. Anyway, here’s another clue. I feel like a real champion when I’m using my generator / inverter and the power is out and I’m running AC on 100°F day. There’s another tip. I have a 2 ton air conditioning unit condenser outside. If you have a 34 or 5 ton and you buy a generator inverter say around 9 kW starting power and it won’t start your AC. You can purchase a soft start unit get an electrician to hook it up to your central air condenser and then you shouldn’t have a problem because what it does the power needed to start the AC condenser for a millisecond is quite high soft start will bring that down by about 70% and then it’ll function. Your AC condenser is fine.. Actually, soft starts are known to extend the life of your air condenser compressor because you’re not blasting it with a lot of electricity all the time when you run it that’s the theory and that’s the practicality. Research that you can Google soft start central air conditioning condenser unit units.. I’m not gonna give you the brand because I’ll probably get flagged then I’ll have to rewrite this again. It’s mentioned another reviews. I’ve seen it in Amazon so it’s not a big deal.. There’s another tip the parts needed to connect the generator inverter to your home. I hired electrician. I know electronics pretty good but these guys are pros and it’s worth hiring someone that really knows what they’re doing. Master electrician, and a helper can get through the process in two hours and be in and out of your home.. for me it’s gonna take all day and I can’t do that as a caregiver. By the way, I do not work for any company that has anything to do with any of the products that I listed above. These are my opinions and what works for me. Keeps me smiling. 🙂 Well, everybody stay safe, be happy.

PRO: Great to have an affordable pure sine wave UPS! Much better to run sensitive computing and networking electronics on pure sine wave. The additional cost is well worth it. My home computing setup is on one CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD, consisting of a desktop and three monitors. It runs about 40 minutes during a power outage. Plenty of time to finish my work and shut down if needed before the power goes. A second CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD runs all of the home networking equipment -- Internet modem, router, switches, wireless access points (POE), plus a cordless phone base and an inkjet printer too, because the printer complains if power is lost without it being properly shut off. And it's nice to be able to continue to print during a power outage. (Laser printers can't be put on a UPS.) The second UPS runs about 3 hours during a power outage. Power outages here typically don't last more than a couple of hours. As a result of the beefy CP1500PFCLCD unit running the home networking equipment, we've never lost WiFi or home phone throughout the house during a power outage for at least 3 years now. TWO CONS: 1. PROBLEM WITH FRONT PANEL DISPLAY. So far I have purchased 11 CyberPower Pure Sinewave units for myself and family The front panel display was DOA on one of them; Amazon was kind enough to send a replacement. On three others, the front panel display has become unusably dim or has gone dark completely and can't be turned on, after the warranty expired. All the units have continued to function, and the available PC software when connected by a USB cable can tell you status if needed. But the unreliable front panel display is a downer. Display failure in 1/3 of the units is not cool. 2. SHORTCOMING IN PC SOFTWARE. If you install the supplied software on a PC connected to the UPS by a USB cable, the software can set parameters in the UPS, monitor it, see a log, etc. And the software can shut down the connected PC in the event of a power failure, based on criteria you select. In that way, the connected computer experiences an orderly shutdown rather than a sudden power failure. Nice! Originally, I purchased one CyberPower Sine Wave UPS to keep my all my Internet equipment running as long as possible (modem, router, etc.), until the UPS is almost out of battery. But I also wanted the supplied software to shut down my desktop computer within just a few minutes of a power failure in order to keep our home Internet up as long as possible. The software allows you to choose among multiple options for when it should take action in the event of a power failure. But unfortunately, the software trigger to shut down the UPS is "hard wired" to be the same trigger that it uses to shut down the computer! The triggers for computer shutdown vs. UPS shutdown should be separately configurable, but they're not. It's odd that CyberPower doesn't allow this obvious option! If the software would shut down my computer within the first few minutes, I would have been able to continue to use Internet on my laptop and smartphone on WiFi for about 3 hours. But with the desktop computer along for the ride, the battery only lasted about 40 minutes. This software shortcoming was the reason I had to buy a second UPS, so that the computer, and Internet/WiFi devices could be on separate UPSs. Good for sales, I guess, but bad for customers. (I have not experienced the "bad smell" failure mentioned in other reviews on any of the Cyberpower UPS systems I have purchased.) BOTTOM LINE: Overall these UPS units are a great investment for reliable power in electrical failures or brownout situations, at a fairly reasonable price, especially if you can catch them on sale. But CyberPower needs to re-engineer the front panel display and the PC control software.

Honestly, this unit is great. It looks nice, and it works right away with no extra set up needed (a certain other brand wants you to open it up and plug in a wire...). It has 6 surge slots and 6 battery slots, totaling up to 12 outlets in total. The competitors I see here on Amazon are showing 10 slots so already you're ahead with 2 more outlets. So I plugged in my whole set up into the ups unit. Desktop, monitor, other essentials were put on the battery outlets. In order to easily test if my unit works on battery back up, I plugged the ups into a power strip surge protector with a switch on it. (This is a safe practice you should be doing anyways, since it will protect the ups from sudden spikes in voltage due to being plugged into a wall outlet. ) I turned off the power switch on the power strip surge protector, and the ups battery backup kicked in right away. Mind you, this was about ten minutes after I took it out of the box. No extra charging or tampering was needed to make it work. My computer, which was plugged into the battery, was kept running. I didn't test for how long this unit can last but it didn't seem like it would be more than 20-30 minutes. It claims 50 minutes but IMO, ups battery backup is for a safe shut down during a power outage, not actual uptime. If you're looking for uptime then go get a generator or a laptop. Both Anker and Jackery have a line of portable power stations with solar panels if you *really* want to go off grid. RIP your wallet on this though. As for the the claim that this is producing sine waves... I do not have the tools to measure this. Instead I found a video on youtube of a guy testing a 1350V unit from Cyberpower (same brand family, just lower voltage), and he was able to confirm that it produces sine waves when the battery kicks on. The video is titled "CyberPower CP1350PFCLCD Unboxing, Testing, and Review" by Family Home Theater, he made the video 8 years ago and it has 41k views. I haven't seen anyone successfully dispute his claim so I will stick by it. I attached a video of the information that is shown on the LCD display. The display seems to shut off within 90 seconds if left alone. I'm pretty happy with this purchase. I wish I would've bought this years ago. If I experience any issues with the unit, I will update this review.

Bought this thing back in 2024. Thought I'd need to protect the computer since I'd had a bunch of power outages lately. 2025 passes by without a single power outage. 2026 has until today, had exactly 1 - and it was a scheduled outage so the power company could replace some equipment in the area. This morning I received a motherboard I'd ordered from Amazon in an effort to try to solve a computer problem. As usual, the new motherboard had a BIOS a year out of date, so I got its latest BIOS and tried to update it. About 1 minute into the update, the screen went blank and my desk fan stopped spinning. I realized the power had gone off. The second power outage in as many years and one of them just HAD to occur during a BIOS update, and I'd thought I'd plugged the computer into the wrong outlet and that's why the screen went dark. A few seconds later the screen flickered back to life as the power came back on showing the update still in progress. I realized that I'd only forgotten to plug the DISPLAY into the UPS - the actual computer had been powered by the UPS during the very brief outage. The update completed without issue and I was spared a bricked motherboard, thanks to this UPS. 10/10 would prevent bricked motherboard again.
