Product Description
The Back-UPS RS offers high performance protection for your business and office computer systems. It provides abundant battery backup power, allowing you to work through medium and extended length power outages. It also safeguards your equipment from damaging surges and spikes that travel along utility, phone and network lines. A distinguishing feature of the Back-UPS RS is automatic voltage regulation (AVR). AVR instantly adjusts both low and high voltages to safe levels, so you can work indefinitely during brownouts and overvoltage situations, saving the battery for power outages when you need it most. Award-winning shutdown software automatically powers down your computer system in the event of an extended power outage.

Customer Reviews
APC BR-1500LCD is great!!!
This is a great battery back-up and surge protector.
If you want to good one, make sure it's the BR-1500LCD, if it's not the BR then it is a cheaper, consumer version that is lower cost and lower surge and brown-out protection.
Spend the extra money and get the BR-1500LCD, it's worth it if you have expensive equipment plugged in to it.
Does what it is supposed to
I've had this item a few months now and we lost power recently (April storms...) . It was great because I was in the middle of scanning/uploading pictures for my mother-in-law's 60th birthday. The first time, the power dropped for a couple of seconds. No problem. Then it went out completely. I just finished the picture I was working on and finished an email I was working on. DSL was still working. Then I just powered everything down. Great !!!!!
PROS:
- Works like it is supposed to and simple. Even my Grandma (were she alive) could hook this thing up.
CONS:
- I hooked up the Cable TV coax and it created a buzzing sound in my speakers. So I'm not using the coax hookup.
- Very short power cord, maybe 3 feet? I had to use an extension cord for an extra couple of feet, gives it a cheap look. Not a big deal, but keeps it from getting the 5 stars it should deserve.
Disappointed
I'm not disippointed in the product, I'm disippointed in the ad. When I read the specs it said that it was 50 - 60 HZ. It's only 60 HZ. They have since fixed the ad. It dosen't help me because I'm in a 50HZ country. I guess it will work when I get back to the States.
