¡Excelente producto!

Este regulador de voltaje con respaldo de batería es extraordinario: completamente silencioso (exceptuando el click propio de los reguladores de voltaje electrónicos, que, por otra parte apenas distrae); su indicador de funciones frontal es sumamente útil, al igual que sus salidas para carga de dispositivos móviles. Es compacto y genera poco calor. Estos sumamente satisfecho con la compra, que me fue entregada antes de lo previsto y en un empaque perfecto.Héctor Berumen F.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential for home NAS

2026-01-24    -Brian Murphy

APC quality, and plenty of power protection for my home NAS. No more worries about power fluctuation or outages.

Did not do its job. My equipment is now damaged.

2026-02-14    -Cameron Davidson

Doesn't perform at all as advertised.I bought it to act as a UPS for my A/V system, which is a little persnickety and my city's power grid is suspect.The output ranges between 115V to 118V at any given time, and doesn't protect my equipment at all from power fluctuations, even with the sensitivity set at max. Load sits at 6% so I'm not taxing it whatsoever.At this price, I would expect more. I can't even return it because of Amazon's policies, so I have a $200 paperweight.UPDATE - On Friday, September 13, there was a lightning storm in my area. Both my A/V receiver and my cable box were connected to the Battery/Surge strip, and both fried.While there's an insurance coverage policy with this product, I feel that I can't take advantage due to the fact that I bought the audio receiver some time ago used and the cable box is a rental.Still, I have to question whether I got a faulty unit or whether this product just doesn't work.

5.0 out of 5 stars lasted just over 1 month.

2026-01-19    -Edward Thomas

was purchased to supply power to PC and house router, we have VOIP phone and wanted to insure phone continued to work properly during power outage.everything worked fine out of box, nice display showing load and status of UPS. Backup function worked great no loss of internet, PC, or Phone on power loss.One afternoon while at computer there was a loud pop and the UPS went down along with the PC, router and phone system.. There was no power failure, other devices in the house continued to work fine. UPS would not come back up, computer and router were still fine when plugged directly into AC power outlet.Called support, described situation. After walking thru some basic troubleshooting they are replacing unit.Would give tech support a 5 star, Hope the new one lasts longer.Update - received replacement in 24hours.Installed and operational now for over 4 months, no further problems. Highly recommend, They stand behind the product.

Substandard components

Did not last 6 months then showed an error.I examined the case and observed melted plastic near the transformer.Took the machine apart and found the transformer wires are aluminium and the connection with the board was twisted together and soldered (solder would not take to this)Not sure how this gets a CSA pass. mr carlsons lab on you tube found the same.I don't want this replaced.Source a safer make.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome UPS for ANY computer worth over 1 grand

2026-02-28    -Joey

If you all know Jonny Guru, I do my reviews like him.Construction: Very tough plastic and feels very excellent. Construction does not indicate a good UPS, so this will be weighted very lightly in my rating. 1/1Sounds: No hissing sounds. The sounds were from a bad batch in 2018, its 2020 now, so APC definitely cleaned up their act. Will beep when the power goes out. If the fans are spinning all the time they are completely inaudible. Did they collaborate with Noctua or BeQuiet? 4/4Performance: I unplugged the UPS from the wall to simulate a power outage and it kept the power to the computer on. It is ONLY meant to save your work and shut down. For my PC when im doing office tasks, it lasts between 45 and 60 minutes on just battery power. 10/10Weight/Battery capacity: This thing is built like a tank! Meaning it is VERY heavy, which is good in a way because that gives you a feeling that this is a quality product and it is definitely! And this is where things take a turn. APC uses Sealed Lead Acid batteries instead of lithium ion or lithium sulfur batteries which would last MUCH longer in terms of capacity and lifespan. Unless im missing something here, APC should have used a lithium or graphene type battery instead of Sealed Lead Acid batteries. Does it have something to do with lithium not liking to be 99% topped off all the time? I dont know. For now, I will rate this category 8/10.Features: 10/101. Software: WONDERFUL management software where you can change the UPS settings and monitor it! It is configured by default to let you know if and when the power goes out via a notification on Windows 10 at least. 3/32. USB: This computer has a USB 3.1 Gen 2 port on it for up to 15 watts of charging, and a USB Type A port WHICH IS NOT A SLOW USB PORT either! You know when you plug your phone into your computer via USB, it charges slowly? Not with the APC USB port! Its like plugging the phone into the wall! APC did not cheap out on USB which I like. 3/33. Display: The left button on the front changes the screen to live statistics of the UPS. It tells you the load in watts and percentages, the AC voltage, how many minutes on battery you could last, and even the Hertz. The screen goes out after a minute which is very useful when I'm sleeping. It is behind a closed door in my cubby in my computer desk. 2/24. AC plugs: There are a few AC plugs that will be battery backed up, and a few plugs that only provide surge protection. Useful for devices you do or do not want to be backed up by battery, but do not want an extra surge protector for. 2/2Competition: The less expensive competitor is Cyberpower which provides similar or better features. I skipped it because cyperpower had much more negative reviews within the past 2 years than APC did. Plus I watch the YouTuber Techdeals and he recommended APC. I will rate 10/10.Pros:Awesome build qualityNice featuresNo hissing soundsCons:Lead acid battery instead of a Lithium Sulfur or Lithium ION battery.Do I recommend this product? YES!Who should buy this UPS? ANYONE who has over $1,000 in computer equipment that is plugged into an existingsurge protector, or God help you, a power strip, that includes your keyboard, mouse, usb hubs, phones, computer, monitor, printer, laptop, headphones, speakers, etc.Overall rating: 43/45August 2022: Still works very well. It checks itself every now and then. No issues. This does not have a fan in it. Do not use this to charge your phone if the power goes out, it will smell horribly.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor Batteries. Inadequate Customer Support.

2026-01-08    -That's Mr. to You ;-)

1-20-23: One of the two APC UPS 1000VA Sine Wave UPS Battery Backup and Surge Protectors mentioned below has yet another failed battery. This is its 3rd failed battery within its warranty period. APC by Schneider agreed to replace the battery under warranty. But the company *also* said they don't have it in stock, and it will take around 5 or even 6 weeks to arrive because they don't have it in stock. That takes the unit out of service because it does not fulfill its advertised purpose. The second tech rep with whom I talked said to continue using the unit as surge protector, without relying upon its battery backup. Of course that defeats the advertised purpose of the UPS. Shop other brands is what I recommend. APC by Schneider is but a shadow of its formerly effective company. I've had fair experience with CyberPower Systems, and I've also seen good, written recommendations of Tripp Lite.Update 9-13-21: I'd bought two of these APC Smart-UPS BR1000MS units and put both into service within three months of each other.The one about which I'm writing now has been in use for around 2 3/4 years on a PC and the UPS has just failed, twice. The first failure was when it shut completely off, lights out -- while booting the computer -- and while still having wall power. The second failure, three days later, was when the APC unit declared there was zero battery remaining although it was receiving electricity from a Honda backup generator designed for sensitive electronics. After turning the UPS back on, and testing it without a load, within 60 seconds the unit counted down from 79 minutes runtime to 0 minutes. Then the UPS itself completely off, lights out, powering itself down.If those were the only two challenges, they might be acceptable if APC by Schneider could replace the UPS quickly. But when I phoned them a second time after the second failure of the same UPS, they said that tech diagnosis and support were not available although I talked to a live human. So I had to wait an additional day to talk with a live human. On a third telephone call, APC agreed to ship and deliver a replacement UPS within 3 to 5 business days.In addition to these things, when I talked with APC's tech the first time, four days ago, he gave me a case number, and said I'd receive e-mails about the case. The e-mails never arrived. *If* APC delivers a new replacement unit within the time frame it promised, then I might consider their UPS gave a reasonable service life for what was paid for it, in an area with periodic brownouts or blackouts.The APC Smart-UPS BR1000MS powering another machine, an iMac, has performed steadily and without incident, using the same wall power and infrequent Honda backup generator during blackouts.Original review March 2020: Bought a second one of these specifically for use with an older iMac because our locale has comparatively frequent brownouts and power outages. This model BR1000MS is said to have clean sine wave output and power conditioning, which would mean less issues in user support. The iMac's user listens to and watches a fair bit of audio and visual media, and also connects a set of wireless headphones to their computer. Apple's desktop software has an Energy Saver function which allows simple configuration of run times. APC does not have power management software for Macs at this writing.

Confiable y fácil de instalar.

Este es un Sistema de Alimentación Ininterrumpida (SAI o UPS) que me ha dado muy buenos resultados hasta ahora. En donde vivo hay variaciones de electricidad así como cortes súbitos que han llegado a afectar no solo mi productividad en mi PC de escritorio, sino el propio equipo y sus datos. Hasta ahora, ha mantenido a mi equipo funcionando sin contratiempos y ha aguantado esas "patadas" de energía. No puedo hacer otra cosa más que recomendarlo.
