Great UPS for the $, but...,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cyberpower CP800AVR UPS - 800VA/450W AVR 8-Outlet RJ11/RJ45 Compact Design EMI/RFI USB (Electronics)
I'm pretty happy with this UPS. This is my 3rd one and this is by far the largest. I use it for a single desktop, with a tone of accessories around it, not just the PC. It worked great right out of the box, but the only complaint I would have is the duration of the battery is far less than expected. The software that comes with it is nice at it will indicate the current load and the estimated run time. Base on that, with a ~25% load, I only get ~11 minutes worth of run time which is far less than what they advertize...Still gets the job done for the occational power glitch.

I wish I'd bought it at Amazon,
This review is from: Cyberpower CP800AVR UPS - 800VA/450W AVR 8-Outlet RJ11/RJ45 Compact Design EMI/RFI USB (Electronics)
I live in an area with horrendous power problems: constant brownouts, frequent blackouts, and regular power surges. For people in this area a quality UPS is a must, and the CP800AVR has served me well enough since I bought it that I bought a 685VA/390W USwith Avr for my parents. My only complaint is that I bought them both at a major electronics chain for what I later discovered to be at the top of the price range, my bad. To make a long story short, I not only would buy this product again, for all practictical purposes, I did. Just make sure you charge the battery for at least 16 hours before you use it for maximum performance.Last, when I first bought this item I noticed that there was no USB cable, then I noticed that there was no Mac compatibility symbol on the box. Just to make sure I repackaged the item and returned it for one that claimed Mac compatability. In the end it turned out that Mac compatibility isn't an issue, the 800VA works fine with my Mac even without driver software; however, the UPS that claimed Mac compatibility came with a USB cable. Was this an oversight or do Mac users get the cable for free? (I'm not using a one of the new Intel Macs either, its an older Apple iMac G5 Desktop with 17" M9843LL/A (1.8 GHz PowerPC G5, 512 MB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD-RW Drive).)

UPS CyberPower 800VA/450W,

This review is from: Cyberpower CP800AVR UPS - 800VA/450W AVR 8-Outlet RJ11/RJ45 Compact Design EMI/RFI USB (Electronics)
The main reason for purchase of this product was based number of outlets, price and stated performance. Having 8 outlets was a must - 4 battery backup outlets, 2 of which were transformer sized outlets. The one complaint that I would have is more room between plugs, especially for transformers. I have a HP printer with a Power plug that is so big that it does not allow for another transformer to fit in the space next to it, I blame this on HP for a bad design. One good benefit is that this unit does not have an audible alarm when power is lost, which in my case is a good thing since my last one would chime away when power was lost which freaked out my dogs- if they add this feature in the future I would request that the alarm could be turned off if not desired.
