I recently purchased four of these units. I've encountered the following issues:
(1) CyberPower's published specs for this unit can be found at https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/91XTH5O0b8L.pdf. These specs indicate that this unit should be able to power a "Desktop PC + 17-inch LCD monitor for 90 minutes". Such a configuration draws about 500 Watts of power. I used a test configuration that draws only 180 Watts (measured with a power meter). Such a configuration should run 2.78 times as long as the 500-Watt PC + monitor configuration, which works out to 250 minutes (4 hours and 10 min). In my tests, the actual running time was 40 minutes--about 1/6th of what CyberPower advertises.
(2) Whenever I cut the power from the mains, my digital alarm clock begins running roughly four times as fast, i.e., the time advances by one minute roughly every 15 seconds, which defeats the whole idea of having backup power for an alarm clock.
If you are looking for a high-quality UPS, don't buy one of these.
2018-01-26 update: I called CyberPower Tech Support on Jan 26 and spoke to someone by the name of Peter. Peter disavowed the information in CyberPower's published specs. As per Peter, the actual running time for the desktop PC + 17-inch monitor is "about 6 minutes". Will CyberPower's published information be corrected? "No". When I mentioned the issue with the alarm clock, he claimed that the clock must have been badly designed.

Configuration:Single
A mini-tower UPS with line interactive topology, the CyberPower Intelligent LCD CP1500AVRLCD provides battery backup (using simulated sine wave output) and surge protection for desktop computers, workstations, networking devices, and home entertainment systems. The CP1500AVRLCD 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 CP1500AVRLCD comes with a three-year warranty (including coverage of batteries) Battery Backup Supplies power long enough for equipment to properly shut down when utility power fails. Helps prevent loss of data and minimizes the component stress caused by a hard shutdown. Surge Protection Diverts excess voltage away from sensitive electronic equipment during an AC power surge or power spike to prevent damage. Data Line Protection Prevents power surges that travel through telephone, coaxial, and Ethernet lines from causing damage to electronics. Line Interactive Topology Exists when a line interactive UPS has an autotransformer that regulates low voltages (e.g., brownouts) and over voltages (e.g., spikes) without having to switch to battery. Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) Provides clean, consistent AC power by automatically regulating low voltages and over voltages, within defined tolerances, when incoming utility power has minor fluctuations. Simulated Sine Wave Output Uses pulse wave modulation to generate a stepped, approximated sine wave to supply cost-effective battery backup power for equipment that does not require sine wave output. GreenPower UPSBypass Design Is a patented design that allows utility power to bypass the UPS transformer, when AC power is stable, which reduces energy consumption, noise, and heat buildup. Multifunction LCD Panel Displays immediate, detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions, alerting users to potential problems before they can affect critical equipment and cause downtime. Ultra Quiet Design Minimizes noise during operation for a quieter work environment. PowerPanel Personal Software Provides a user-friendly dashboard interface for controlling and monitoring the UPS. Free software download available here. ENERGY STAR This model is an ENERGY STAR certified Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system. ENERGY STAR is the trusted, government-backed symbol for energy-efficient products and practices that help save money and protect the environment.
