Direct fit for APCC Smart-UPS1500. I had considered testing the old battery but when you realise what is relying on the UPS, just change the battery.

I use this to power the router, NAS, iMac and IP phone in my office at home. It is ESSENTIAL as we frequently have mini powercuts being rural. HIGHLY recommended. I think I get about 30 mins from it under full load. Wouldn't be without one.

i have the non- rack mount version of this apc. works great and does what it is supposed to do.

Bought this to use in an SMT3000RM2U for my company. Works great, just plugs into the back. Allows up to 50 computers to be safely shutdown via ethernet signal if the power goes out.

easy to install; just plugs into UPS

Expensive

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Compact; Discreet; Easy To Setup; Quiet; Runs Cool

Hard to turn on or off

Businesses that can't afford to lose IT operations need to protect their critical systems from power problems. APC's Smart-UPS 1500 can look after multiple servers and associated networking equipment in a small business environment, and at just over $1000 for a near kilowatt UPS it looks good value.

I use it for my Dell Studio XPS 9100 computer, 21.5" monitor, router, cable modem, speakers, printer. It represents less then 20% load for the UPS (115 W). I had couple of power outages recently. UPS worked great. I was left with 42 minutes of battery power.

Quiet operation; Very powerful; All features work as advertised; Very useful disaplay of parameters like current load, time left (in battery operation

None so far

Not the cheapest, but the management software and range of features make it a winner

I run two heavily overclocked PC's and peripherals on it. I connected one monitor, a small tv, and stereo to a cheaper APC 750w, 1250 VA model, which works well also. I upped overclock on main PC to absolute limit, hasn't flinched once. Worth the price.

Handles two heavily overclocked PC's (without monitors) without reaching 50% load; It gets a workout during hot summer evenings, often switching to battery for a few seconds, and sometimes to AVR for short periods; Also, thunderstorms are no longer cause for panic

Heavy..; I mean really heavy; Burglars would leave it behind
