    It was performing perfectly as I was expecting it to perform when the other day the flicking of my screen on my laptop returned at headache levels that I shutdown my laptop and was considering returning the item deciding that it wasn't going to be the kind of voltage or power regulation that was what I thought to be causing the problem. I'm still on the fence on pulling the plug on this device and returning it to whence it came from, that place being Best Buy, because I am currently trying the software for the CyberPower 1500 AVR LX1500GU3. Which must be downloaded from Cy erPower website as it has numerous settings which lets the user adjust the frequency and sensitivity when and how often the Automatic Voltage Regulation and Sinewave output as well as what criteria are used to begin using battery power as opposed to AC is used when the voltage rises to..., or drops below a certain level causing intervention by the batter. Plus, other settings which are more than I wish to go on about. Not sure if I would recommend yet but I'll say, "yes," for now.. .

    Overpriced, but we needed a larger UPS for a gaming computer. We have used APC forever; they are reliable and economical until you need a super size. This ended up being the best price we could find. The biggest disappointment is that the TotalTech warranty does not appear to apply to UPS.

    VERY loud Hum when power is off. NON Pure SIne wave like my older cyberPower at the same VA and price point. Overall its ok. I bought 2 of the LX1500GU3's at the same time. One for the gaming tower and one for the dual 32" dual monitors and other devices. Max power draw is 380 watts while gaming. But do a self test and it sounds bad.

    I didn't know what this was when I bought it, I am pretty sure I have no real use for it in my gaming setup. I just use it as a fancy surge protector for my pricey monitors. It did charge my phone during a an extended power outage though.

    Bad battery

    The battery was bad, when the power went out the first time after a full charge, the battery backup did not kick in and the battery was totally drained. I had to call CyberPower for a replacement battery. Not what I was expecting. But When I called customer service, the agent was very professional and respnsive. Overall great customer service.

    This is a solid buy, no complaints. Though its too soon to comment on its longevity the product does what it has advertised. Is it to the "t", I doubt it. Anyways it works and the screen is pretty cool aswell.

    This is a great UPS for the price. Good outlets, nifty digital display.However, the coil whine was atrocious and I returned it.
