Pros
- Slim design is an attractive alternative to standard box-shaped back ups
- GreenPower UPS significantly reduces energy requirements compared to devices without this feature
- LCD Display with real-time readings
- External battery pack connector option to increase UPS Backup time.
- Software with auto shutdown feature.
- Alarm sound can be turns off
- Weighs in at a bit over 11 Kg – less than most 1000VA UPS devices
- 2 Years warranty
Cons
- Not 100% silent. Fan produces a lot of noise during charging and discharging.
- Difficult to configure Master Output Port with auto shutdown with zero load. Even after shutdown CPU draws some power for standby voltage.
- Power switch is located quite deep and it's difficult pressing it specially when turning off the unit.
With my test system (i7-3770K at stock, Sabertooth board, 2x4GB Corsair value RAM, 240GB Corsair GS SSD, 1 TB and 2TB WD Green HDD, Asus HD7750, Asus Xonar DX sound card ) at ideal and according to the LCD front panel on the UPS, I'm at 16% load and can expect approximately 40 minutes of runtime. Pretty impressive, with a 600W maximum capacity the APC Back-UPS Pro 1000VA BR1000G-IN is an excellent choice for performance systems at a very good price.
APC Back-UPS Pro 1000VA is very simply the best UPS device I've ever tested. I have no reservations whatsoever about recommending it to anyone looking for a UPS for a performance computer system.
APC Back-UPS Pro 1000VA BR1000G-IN is an excellent choice for PC systems and worthy of our PC TeK REVIEWS Choice Award.
