The APC Back-UPS RS-1500VA (BR1500) Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)is a power user's dream -- almost.

Not for sensitive equipment

Pros Price, Capacity, Footprint, Appearance, Outlets
Cons Poor power quality
Recommended it? No

I bought the RS1500 (BR1500) because I had an older APC Backup-UPS Pro 1400 that worked great and the RS1500 appeared to be a good combination of price and capacity.

Pros Acts instantaneously at power outage, long battery life.
Cons Loud and regular beep when in use.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this UPS unit in December 2004 because I now had VOIP phone service and if I lost my power, my cable modem, phone adapter and wireless router would be down.
