Works Great! Over 6 minutes of power while rendering Graphics on my 27″ iMac
EQUIPMENTProduct: 450VAEquipment: 2017 27” iMac | 3.4GHz i5 | 40GB Ram | 4GB graphics cardINTROI am a freelance motion graphics artist and I work from home often, so I decide to buy this battery backup system (450VA version) as a safeguard in case of a power outage, giving me to time to save and close my projects. I have a 2017 27” iMac and I searched online to find out how much power this computer uses and estimate how long it would take for my computer to shut off. I couldn’t find a definite answer so I decide to purchase and do my own testing. Of course there are many variables in figuring that out as it all depends on the usage and how much power the computer is using at the time of the outage. If you are using your computer for browsing the internet at half of the screen brightness while not watching a video or listening to music, your power consumption will be a lot less than if you were editing heavy animated graphics at full screen brightness while using the speakers.THE TESTFor my first test I unplugged the battery backup from the wall and started the timer on my phone. On the iMac I had the screen brightness 3 dots away from full brightness and I had Adobe After Effects rendering a 10 second medium complexity animation project at a third of the resolution.- When I unplugged the battery backup from the wall, I heard 2 beeps – letting me know that the system is now using the battery.- The two beeps kept repeating every 30 seconds, probably as a reminder that I was still running on battery.- At 2 mins and 40 secs I heard several beeps – I am assuming that the battery was at 50%- At 4 minutes several beeps went off and did not stop.- At 6 minutes and 35 seconds, the iMac shut off by itself.CONCLUSIONThe product seams to be of good built quality, I like that all 8 outlets are surge protected and only 4 of them are battery backed up. At about 6 minutes of power after an outage, that works perfectly for me. I don’t need to be working during a power outage and 6 minutes is plenty of time for me to save my projects and not loose any work done. For the price, that is a small price to pay for huge peace of mind. Now, if you need to be working through a power outage or if you will be using a bigger power load with more equipment using the battery’s power, I would advise for you to get a battery backup system with larger battery capacity.

Incredible Power Supply with Battery back up
I must say, I have purchased several other battery back up systems from Cyberpower before and they are always flawless. This particular unit I use to power my cable modem/router, Majic Jack Device (IP Phone), Cordless main phone, and two IP Security cameras. It will power all of that for 90 minutes if the power goes out. how do I know? The display tells you so! Here is the rest of my review.1) Quality. There is never a problem with quality in the CyberPower brand. Everything is built well. 5 of 5 stars2) Display. The display tells you everything you need to know, like how much time before the battery back up is drained. Also how charged the battery is, and more. Bravo! 5 of 5 stars3) Hang on the wall. I use this in my data closet and can easily be mounted right to the wall. I mount it about eye level so I can go in and see the display when there is a power outage. 5 of 5 stars4) Outlet config. There are 4 regular outlets with surge suppression, and another 4 with additional battery back up. Perfect for my needs. 5 of 5 stars.This unit is an awesome addition to my home network and securty system. I highly recommend the unit as described in my review. If you are looking to power a PC, you might consider a unit from CyberPower that has a larger battery capacity. This powers the router, two security cameras, and the IP Phone very well. Another reason why I use this is because in my area we get small power bumps that last only a 1/2 to 2 seconds once a week or so. My IP based security cameras get thier internal clock reset when this happens causting the day/night function to be incorrectly timed. The battery back up maintains the power and the clock function in those cameras so I dont have to constantly be resetting the clock in each one. Other benefits is that I will have power to those cameras when I have a power outage.

Excellent buy.
I got this to replace my older battery backup system. It works perfectly. Over the winter we had a couple brown outs, and one power outage. This product worked exactly as I expected it to keeping my electronics safe. I have my computer, TV, and sound system plugged into this.

It served well, but it couldn’t handle my new gaming rig.
Which makes sense, pay attention to the wattage rating on here. A good rule of thumb is find something that matches your PSU (power supply) on your PC. It’s a little more nuanced than that since your computer isn’t likely to be pulling the maximum wattage your PSU handles unless you’re under a heavy gaming load. But if you’re heavy into gaming it’s a good rule to follow nonetheless.I just got a rig with the Nvidia RTX 4090, and when I got into some games that put that video card to hard work, that’s when this battery backup got angry. Just one solid nonstop tone that doesn’t shut up is the sign that you’re pulling more watts than the battery is rated for. So right now I’m just using the new computer on the surge protected side, not the battery protected side. Time for me to find something bigger. But for the average user who doesn’t have heavy gaming hardware, you’ll be fine with this. My old computer had a Nvidia RTX 2070 and I never had an issue, for reference. The newer more powerful stuff though, you may want to go bigger than this.

Excelente produto, tengo 4 meses con el y me ha salvado innumerable ocasiones. Donde vivo es muy común que con cualquier lluvia se vaya la luz o se corte un instante, suficiente para apagarte la computadora. Tengo mi PC gamer con un monitor conectado al aparato y de todas las veces que me ha salvado de cortes de luz yo creo que ya se regresó la inversión. Completamente recomendado.

Mi colonia sufre de constantes fallas en el suministro eléctrico (3 o más por quincena?. Después de varios meses de uso, la batería sigue entregando la misma duración que cuando nueva.
