    APC Back-UPS Pro 1500VA UPS Battery Backup & Surge Protector (BR1500G)

    • Well built UPS with a nice display, but appears to be making the high-pitched whining noise that others have complained about
    • Nice digital display
    • The display is excellent and replacing the battery takes 5 seconds.
    • The UPS has an LED display letting you know how much current is going through your system
    • To test the system, I disconnected the power, and the battery lasted for over 2 hours of use with the TV on vivid display and the sound at a fun level for watching movies with a friend
    • The digital display helps a bit with troubleshooting over the phone when they wonder why it's beeping (because... the power is out).
    • I was expecting the display to be a gimmick, but it does provide some helpful information about the current load, remaining time on battery (based current load), etc
    • In my philosophy, the more information I have the better off I am, so I love the LCD display, which lets me keep track of how much battery time I have at my current load, the voltage being output, etc
    • The LED display goes off after about a minute.
    • I like the LED display on this
    • Smart displays tell you how much load and backup power you have
    • Like having the display, and wouldn't mind if it stayed on, but it does sleep after a while.
    • If you have the display on it will make a slight noise
    • It's quiet, has a simple useful informative led display, optional software, and about 53 minutes of charge for 102 w of load.
    • It has an nice display which shows the power draw, estimate running time, and actual time left.
    • This UPS has a neat digital display of multiple parameters; a much improved run time (that can even extended with a separate battery unit); well designed shut off (when the computer is turned off the monitor and accessories are also turned off, but essentials like the phone modem, cable modem, wifi are still on and protected
    • I like the display that shows time left on battery use, power in, and power out
    • The easily readable front-panel display provides information about the line input voltage, the UPS output voltage, the state of battery charge, AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation) status, output load (watts), estimated run time remaining at current load and number of power drop out events
    • Cool digital display and can handle a power
    • Not only is the onboard display fantastic, but the software is over the top!
    • With this model I like that one can select one's level of protection by working with the LED display panel
    • The LED display is great as it lets us know they are charged and ready.
    • The display is handy for providing information, especially the voltage and the wattage being drawn.
    • I love the slimness of this unit and the display, however with it sitting on my
    • Love the display with various usage stats.
    • The display is also really nice and bright.
    • Nice blue display on the unit plus has software on your PC to view stats at a glance
    • Good information display
    • Love the display, and its holding strong through the multiple small brown outs and one major outtage so far.
    • Works great, looks nice, nice display
    • Display is easy to read though, which I like
    • Great display for information showing how much power is being used and more juice than most APCs.
    • Good display.
    • may have gotten more time, but I opted to plug my 27" LED display into the UPS.
    • What I noticed is the whine is slightly louder and the frequency slighly lower when you press the LCD display on - but the display automatically shuts off after 60 seconds and that whine pretty much goes away
    • Very nice product, nice display and advanced features
    • The display is charming but completely cryptic (worthless) to everyday users
    • I've noticed that it has really good voltage regulation/correction and the display is nice.
    • The display is not as useful, but for the amount of times I access the unit, I don't much care.
    • Not as bad as I first thought
    • Other companies are certainly improving, but when it's critical I always go with APC.
    • Great as usually
    • Mine does it but it does not bother me as much as it bothers some of the reviewers.
    • A great product and it works as it should.
    • The instructions need to be improved as they seem to be disorganized.
    • Works as it should.
    • Overall I highly recommend it as I have had many of these over the years and they have never let me down.
    • The battery will still bleed even if it outside the APC but not as fast as when it is inserted in the usable position
    • You would hope that Amazon would have newer inventory of these units, or that Amazon wouldnt knowingly carry defective units, but clearly from the reviews on Amazon, it's still hit or miss as to whether or not you will order an APC BR1500MS (or BR1000MS, etc) and get one that doesn't chirp
