A UPS can provide power to a PC for 2 hours or more, depending on the model and capacity of the UPS. The battery life of a UPS is determined by the load on the UPS and the number of batteries in the UPS. A UPS with more batteries will last longer than one with fewer batteries.
A UPS, or uninterruptible power supply, is a device that provides backup power to a computer or other electronic device in the event of a power outage. A UPS typically contains a battery that kicks in when the power goes out, allowing the device to continue running for a short period of time. But can a UPS work without a battery? The answer is yes, but only for a very limited amount of time. A UPS contains a transformer that steps down the voltage of the incoming power to the level that is required by the device. This transformer is what allows the UPS
How big of a UPS do I need for my PC? The size of the UPS you need depends on the wattage of your PC and the amount of time you need it to run in the event of a power outage. To calculate the wattage of your PC, add up the power requirements of each of your PC components. Most power supplies have this information listed on them. Once you know the wattage of your PC, multiply that number by 1.2. This will give you the VA, or volt-ampere rating, which is the number used to size
A UPS can last for a very long time if it is properly maintained. The lifespan of a UPS is typically around 5 to 7 years, but with proper maintenance, a UPS can last up to 10 years.

This analysis is lengthy. Based on what I have learned, I have revised it. If you encounter the same issue I did, I hope this would be helpful.This battery is functional. Five stars for the battery, but not so much for the assistance from APC. Continue readingI bought it to swap out the stock battery in my BR1500G UPS. In January 2014, this UPS and its original battery were put into operation. The UPS itself was tested on September 9, 2013, according to the test data sheet that came with it, indicating that it was built sometime in 2013.Because of the frequent, brief power outages we previously experienced, I have six UPS systems (not as many now, Florida Power and Light has really improved their system, but we still have one or two brief interruptions every few months). One of these UPSs is in our "rack room," which also houses our Synology server, cable modem, router, ethernet switches, phone system, and Sonos Connect equipment. The other two are at our primary Dish Network DVR and the four iMac/PCs we have scattered throughout the home.I always replace my UPS batteries after three years, but I must have forgotten about this one. So the battery died after more than 4 years.It failed just as follows: one day the entire rack room was dead. UPS wasn't working. It came on when I turned it back on, but the battery icon had a "X" over it.So I bought a new battery and put it in. It just slides in, very simple. However, the UPS only showed a 10 minute run time after two days of charging, which I know from experience is incorrect. The UPS is under 210 watts of load.I used the chat feature to contact APC customer care because I believed this battery might be faulty. After two conversations, they informed me that my UPS was five years old and had run out of life.I looked deeper and read a lot of these reviews before placing my purchase for a new UPS. One person stated that in order to reset the "battery replacement date," it was essential to run both the self-test and the Power Chute software after changing the battery. Although I haven't messed around with the Power Chute software before, after utilizing it, I do so.After doing this, the UPS now shows a runtime of 27 minutes, which in my experience is reasonable for this UPS with a load of 210 watts.Sadly, there is no documentation that specifically instructs how to accomplish this. Both the battery replacement manual and the original documentation that came with the UPS do not contain it.Additionally, I was not instructed to do this by APC customer service.The transcripts of two chat conversations I had with APC support are provided below. The first person I spoke to did not seem to understand that I was performing a hot swap replacement and instructed me to perform a procedure that was inconsistent with a hot swap, which annoyed me. However, the real frustration I felt only later set in when I realized I needed to update the battery replacement date in the Power Chute software.Devi (5:19:52 PM, April 25): Hello Eric, my name is Devi, and I appreciate your contacting APC by Schneider Electric. How may I be of service to you?Me (4/25/2018, 5:24:19 PM): My ups claimed the battery in my BR1500G was defective, so I bought a new APCRBC124 (an "X" on the battery icon). It was hot switched because certain servers utilize it for protection. Have the X even after replacement. Purchased from Amazon (Ships from and sells on Amazon), however the warranty information was in Australian currency. Is there anything I need to do to reset the UPS in order to remove the X from the battery icon? Can't seem to locate any guidelines for doing it. I need to exercise caution because I don't want to shut down my equipment's electricity.Devi (5:24:38 PM, April 25): I can see why you're worried. I regret the trouble this has caused. You can count on me to help you with it.Devi (5:24:44 PM, April 25): Before installing, did you charge the device continuously for 16 hours?Me (4/25/2018, 5:25:01 PM): How do you recommend I go about doing that?Devi (5:25:41 PM, April 25): The battery may not have had enough charge to solve this problem. Due to safety concerns, the item won't be fully charged during shipping; therefore, I kindly ask that you allow the battery to charge for 16 hours with the unit turned off.Devi (5:25:51 PM, April 25): as soon as the battery is fully charged. I'd advise you to evaluate yourself.Me (4/25/2018, 5:26:15 PM): How can I do what you want since it's a hot swap?Devi (5:26:47 p.m. on April 25): It can be hot-swapped, yes.Devi (4/25/2018, 5:27:00 PM): Due to safety concerns, the unit will not be fully charged during shipment.Devi (5:27:21 PM, April 25): Some batteries require a full charge before use.Me (4/25/2018, 5:28:16 PM): I don't think you get what I'm saying. On a UPS that was in use, I quickly changed the battery. How do I charge the battery before operating the UPS? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is already in use. What good is being able to hot swap a battery replacement if I have to pull it out of service?Devi (5:29:03 PM, April 25): Yes, Eric, I do recognize your worry. However, after installing the battery, only give it a 16-hour charge before connecting it to any device.Devi (5:29:17 p.m. on April 25): I would like you to run a self test to verify the battery's integrity.Me (4/25/2018, 5:31:37 PM): Do you realize that this UPS is currently in operation? that I'm attempting a hot-swap to swap out the battery? that carrying out what you recommend will render the ability to perform a hot-swap completely useless? If so, what use is the hot swap capability as a whole?Devi (5:32:02 PM, April 25): I am aware that UPS is active. You can set the price anyway you'd like.Devi (4/25/2018 5:32:08 PM): The problem is solved.Devi (5:32:17 PM, April 25): It's okay if you are totally unable to execute.Devi (5:34:29 PM, April 25): The method is:

My APC 750ES UPS unit completely shut down or lost power twice while I was using my computer that is plugged into it after I purchased this replacement battery a little more than two months ago. Note that only the UPS unit, which I have owned for more than 5 years and never done this before on the old battery, was affected by the power outage or loss; the house did not experience either. I'm of the view that there is a problem with this battery that is causing this behavior, albeit I have no means to confirm it. The battery is the "bridge" through which all electricity must pass, so if it fails all power is lost. I don't get why this ups unit wouldn't continue to work even if the battery were dead or ever absent, at least as a surge protector or power strip, but I guess that's how they're made. We'll see what happens as I've asked Amazon for a replacement or refund.The unit occasionally just loses power for no apparent reason, so I don't think I got a defective battery; rather, I think the APC unit itself is the problem. ** EDIT - I've since started using the replacement battery that Amazon provided me.

During the holiday promotions, we bought this sold/fulfilled by Amazon, and we've never looked back. Stop wasting time on inferior UPSs or UPSs from companies who won't back up the UPS with their own insurance protection. (At least in most situations; YMMV, homeowner's insurance won't help if you or your equipment sustains electrical loss or damages. Given how much it would cost to replace a decent and/or bespoke system and peripherals, you owe it to yourself to always secure all of your equipment.Our main PC, with an 850-watt EVGA, is carried by this UPS.The APC UPS barely even notices the presence of a power supply, an Asus M/B with 32 GBs of RAM, 4 HDDs, and an EVGA video card, a dual-Corsair liquid CPU cooler over an AMD FX-8350, 8-140mm fans in push-pull-positive pressure vent configuration, a 4K monitor, and a dual USB 3.0 dock, and it practically begs for more. Only 3 electrical "noise occurrences" were reported after two months at 50% capacity and runtime; this wasn't enough to set off the alarm.Turn Power Chute's sensitivity all the way up while configuring the UPS, and don't forget to check it once every month. You absolutely must purchase one of these if you live in a region with storms or AC power problems (under/over voltage or outages). Although we've never gone without a UPS, it's never a good idea to tempt fate. In the event of a lightning strike, we shut down and disconnect the system and have a second UPS for our TV, AV, router, firewall, LAN, and modem. (Wife even uses sewing machines from a different brand of UPS).Not boasting, just stating that from my 30 years of building, repairing, and replacing systems, it's best practice to test your UPS by fully cycling/depleting the on-board lead-acid battery when the UPS shuts everything down automatically, for example at the 5-7% mark, then fully charging the battery again before powering the system up the following day. If you repeat this process every few months, the battery will live longer whether you plan to buy a new unit or merely a new replacement battery every three years. Battery life can last considerably longer than three years, however it varies depending on the system, use, electrical demands, etc. Here, YMMV is the norm.The UPS always has a blank AOC-QC paper test-slip attached to it before it leaves the factory for shipping, but we didn't like it because it was utterly unreadable. UPS requested a picture of it. Guys, that one is obvious. There was nothing discernible, not even in bright light or under magnification. It's a great UPS aside from that. The only other reasonable complaint was that APC needs to improve their website and make it more user-friendly and safe. The registration process should be far less difficult in the twenty-first century than it was this time, and we shouldn't have needed to ask APC for a link to download the most recent version of Power Chute; it should have come on a CD with the UPS, like it did in the good old days.At least until we consider the massive corporate data-farms running 24/7/265 around the world; yet, we're attempting to preserve, but enjoy, given the equal number of trees consumed vs. power cost indicated in APC's Power-Chute monitoring program, or what it claims we're burning.This review is our personal opinion of the product; we were not given any freebies, gifts, or other compensation for it. We sincerely hope that it will assist other Amazonians in making wise judgments about their own equipment protection and purchases.

On my wife's computer and, presumably, the TV/Dish receiver, I did not install the PowerChute software. Through a few push-and-hold operations on the power button, the alarm can be configured to not sound. Although the font is small and challenging to see, the instructions that come with the device explain it more or less clearly.The main problem with this device is that you have to remove the battery in order to attach it before use. When you take it out, be careful because it comes back in via the least obvious path. Because I had two, and because I removed the second battery with more attention, I was able to figure out how to replace the first. Only way I hadn't tried before worked.

Due to my positive experience with APC and my desire to preserve the usual high caliber of APC products, I was hesitant to even write a review. It's only fair, though, to relate my experience because everything about it was excellent.This UPS was purchased for a remote network in my home (security cameras and a POE switch). Complete failure when I first got it; it would not even turn on. I hurried up to a store and purchased another one because I wanted it NOW. This problem was not urgent because I also needed a replacement UPS for our phone system; it would merely hasten that replacement until I received the new UPS for this damaged one.I informed APC (Schneider Electric in accordance with the directions included with that awful UPS) using their "chat" feature. Schneider planned a FedEx delivery of a new UPS with less than 8 messages. On the second day, I got the replacement UPS, connected it to the phone system, and everything was well. The 10-year-old APC unit that had been doing us well was replaced with the new UPS.In our house, I have no fewer than 8 APC UPS units. Be it a network, computer, TV, or phone, they are all quietly operating and fulfilling different tasks. I've never had a problem with an APC device before, so I'm hesitant to say anything bad about it. My opinion is that their service is unmatched, and APC (Schneider Electric) will support its products no matter who sells them.

Assuming a standard desktop PC with a 400W power supply, a 1000VA UPS will theoretically last for approximately 2.5 hours. However, this is only under ideal conditions and you will likely get less runtime in the real world.
The answer to this question depends on a number of factors, including the quality of the UPS, the efficiency of the UPS, the load on the UPS, and the ambient temperature. Generally speaking, a 1500VA UPS will last for several hours under normal conditions. However, if the load on the UPS is high, the efficiency of the UPS is low, or the ambient temperature is high, the UPS may only last for a few minutes.
If you have a computer, you should strongly consider buying a UPS. A UPS, or uninterruptible power supply, is an essential piece of equipment that provides backup power to your computer in the event of a power outage. A UPS will keep your computer running for a short period of time, allowing you to save your work and properly shut down your system. A UPS can also protect your computer from power surges.
If you have an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), you may wonder whether it’s best to keep it plugged in all the time or only when you need it. The answer may surprise you. It’s actually best to keep your UPS plugged in all the time. That way, it will be ready to go when you need it. If you only plug it in when you need it, there’s a chance that it won’t work when you need it most. Of course, you don’t want to
A UPS system is composed of three main elements: a rectifier, an inverter, and a battery. The rectifier converts alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC), while the inverter does the reverse, converting DC back into AC. The battery provides power to the system in the event of a power outage.
