CyberPower VALUE800EILCD Value Series UPS, 800VA/480W, 3 IEC Outlets, AVR, Mini-Tower

I use mine in a domestic cctv environment. My first unit failed after 48 hours but was replaced quickly by CyberPower under warranty. The second lasted four years until it, too, stopped working. The builders had turned off mains power for several hours and this led to the UPS battery draining. On reconnecting to the mains the unit started emitting a single constant warning tone and no amount of fiddling with the front panel controls would stop this. Eventually it simply died and would not switch on at all. The factory manual states that in these circumstances a major failure has occurred and the unit needs to go in for repair. The warranty on the 800EILCD is two years and so mine had expired. I thought it worth changing the battery just to see what would happen. Luckily I had a spare battery lying around the garage. As soon as the ''new'' battery was installed the UPS came back online and now works perfectly.

Bought this because im running 2 ssds in raid 0 with write cache disabled and dont want to lose data because of a power cut. I have a desktop with an overclocked i7 and 2 gpus in sli with a 850w psu. With the PC at full load the UPS lasts for about 5mins at idle load this increases to 30mins+. The software that comes with it is very lightweight and you can use it to shut the pc down automatically. The only issue i have had is with intermittent coil whine which can be very high pitch but is not very loud but considering this is a "value" product i can forgive this. Overall im very happy with this ups and would recommend it.

I was looking for a UPS to provide circa 5mins protection for a desktop, NAS, router & switch. Total load 360W.I believed that being circa 60% of the specified wattage that I would achieve the 5 mins or so required to shutdown my equipment gracefully.Unfortunately in practice you get barely 2mins.I have attached the url to access the Cyberpower sizing tool that I discovered after I received the unit that I hope may help others. In fact it would be good to see this included for potetntial buyers as part of the description/spec.http://eu.cyberpowersystems.com/products/ups_sizing_tool.htmWill use this one for my backup NAS unit.I have finally found a source to get replacement batteries for my existing Cyberpower 2200E 2200VA/1320W that gives me circa 15 mins. FYI Batteries lasted just over 3yrs.Was expecting 4-5yrs for the investment :-(. Also not a job for someone non-technical.

Ok....for 18 months then presto....complete overheat and failure of TWO units at exactly the same time.......I have other UPS's running and those along with everything else is fine so no idea what happened. These are only running NAS units, one on each so only a few watts load as well....Incorrect voltage displays on panel and they run very hot, even under low load. Good value initially but false economy........It is cheaper to spend twice as much on a reputable make...... There were storms around on the day but quite a way away, none locally and these things are supposed to be lightning and surge protected as are my other units that didn't fail. One star I'm afraid and that is only because I have to

I've had two of these and both lasted three years.In each case the mains power failed with rapid rolling on-off which this just system doesn't cope with. The plus is that the server was protected. The minus is that the UPS fails after one event.

I use it to protect my router and NAS against power cuts, which invariably happen where I live and has proved itself on a couple of occasions. It will keep what I have powered up for around 3 hours - the power cuts we had during recent storms lasted from 10 mins to an hour. Only fault would be that orange display doesnt appear to shut off and can be a little bright at night if kept in a bedroom. Highly recommend.

This is an excellent UPS, mainly used for router and voip phones so outlasts the regular power cuts we get in the sticks. I do have my PC connected, but git it set to shut down on power failure as don't need it on without power. So great value does it's job well

Did not receive the cyber power value unit 800EILCD as being shown in photo ,Instead i received a cyber model number 800E-GBwith the same output rating ,this is now being used and working ok .

Usato 3 anni e mezzo ed è già buttare

A distanza di anni e aver sostituito la batteria , posso dire che questo gruppo di continuità non vale proprio niente .Non ha mai funzionato né con sbalzi e ne con mancanze di corrente .Molto deludente .

L'onduleur fonctionne très bien depuis plus d'un an, fiable, c'est un onduleur gérable compatible HID donc pas besoin d'installer de pilotes. Le câble USB est fournit (ce qui est relativement rare) ainsi que un logiciel de gestion de l'onduleur (dont vous n'aurez probablement pas besoin sauf utilisation spécifique).Parfait. Et à un prix raisonnable en plus.

Gekauft habe ich die USV als Buffer für meinen Heim-Virtualisierungsserver, der im Idle mit aktuell 10 virtuellen Maschinen zwischen 25 Watt verbraucht. Da der Server in diesem Lastbereich zu 90% verweilt, musste eine USV mit wenig Eigenverbrauch her. Aus Erfahrung mit meiner Cyberpower DX800E, die einen Eigenverbauch von ca. 5 Watt hatte, wählte ich nun wieder eine Cyberpower. Wichtig war außerdem, das sich keine bewegten Teile (also Lüfter) in der USV befinden.Die VALUE1000EILCDGP besitzt eine Leistung von 550 Watt. Bei Halblast im Batteriebetrieb hat man ca. 6 Minuten bis zum Ausfall. Sie bestizt außerdem 3 Kaltgeräteanschlüsse, einen USB-Connector als auch einen RS232 für die Abfrage der USV via Software sowie die Filtermöglichkeit eines Netzwerkports (IN/OUT). Im laufenden Betrieb wird sie oberseitig Handwarm. Linux wird unterstützt (und scheint wohl besser zu sein als unter Windows). Die Batterie ist nicht wechselbar (vom Benutzer, laut Cyberpower).Zum Messen wurde ein Voltcraft Plus Energy Monitor 3000 mit 1,5 Watt Eigenverbrauch genutzt. Als Test-Verbraucher kam ein NEC MultiSync EA273WM mit einem Linux-Desktop und einem Verbrauch von ~21,4 Watt zum Einsatz. Die USV war zu 100% geladen.Leistung nach dem Einschalten, ohne Verbraucher: ~ 22 WattLeistung nach 2 Minuten, ohne Verbraucher: ~ 3 WattLeistung mit Verbraucher: ~ 24,4 WattDer Eigenverbrauch des Voltcraft ist bereits abgezogen.Zur Windows-Software kann ich nichts sagen, da ich diese nicht im Einsatz habe. Für Linux gibt es deb/rpm Pakete für die gängigsten Distributionen. Die Pakete installieren einen Dienst sowie ein Commandline-Tool für Verwaltungs-, Konfigurations- und Übersichtszwecke. Mit dem Dienst hat man die Möglichkeit, im Falle eines Ausfalls automatisiert zu reagieren. Voreingestellt ist ein Mailversand... für versierte Nutzer vermutlich nicht das Mittel der Wahl bei einer Alarmierung ;).Schlussendlich ist der Gesamtverbrauch meines Virtualisierungsservers nun bei 27 Watt im Median nach Bereinigung von Lastspitzen. Klare Kaufempfehlung also.

Ho acquistato due articoli e uno non funziona. Emette di continuo dei beep come se non ci fosse la corrente senza mai smettere. L'altro invece funziona perfettamente.
