Reminder that this is AVR and not PFC. Use wisely.

Would this be good to use with a projector (PowerLite Home Cinema 2040)? It's in an area that sometimes loses power. Thx.

I had to look the acronyms up to see the difference, so here are the links:
AVR https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/products/ups/avr
PFC https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/produ ... c-sinewave

Cyberpower says this is part of their intelligent LCD series: https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/produ ... ligent-lcd

That says it is OK for home theater systems.

I've been running one of these for 4 years now, works perfectly and the USB Powerpanel software's great, though you have to 'unlock' it to save any changes( odd ). Even bought a second one recently on a sale for this exact price to run my TV and sundry electronics.

I find the backlit LCD panel handy on occasion when I want to check the power coming in or what's going on, without having to look at the computer. Never a worry with a UPS though you have to ensure that you've covered ALL your bases: surges will take any path into your system, so protect that cable TV line and anything else plugged into your electronics or computer.

Batteries need replacement though, showing 20% of capacity on the self-tests, there's two and they go for about $17-20 each on Amazon.ca.

Nice there are cheap batteries. The older APC SMART 1500 batteries were like $100 a piece and it weighed a ton. It is literally the same size as a car battery.

What is the difference between the 2 here and the older APC Smart series? How they charge?

Heads up to anyone who ordered something from Dell in last 3 months. Check if you have an ePromo code. I had $20 I completely forgot about that expires in 2 weeks.

Thanks OP!
