CYBERPOWER VP1600EILCD SOHO UPS 1600VA/960W

We get a lot of daft little 3-4 second power cuts where I live, often, many of them one after the other. I've already lost a 4TB hard drive from my NAS due to this so I thought I'd better prevent it from happening again. This device does NOT come with a power cable, but anyone who has computer(s) is bound to have about half a dozen spare ones lying around. If not, it's just a standard kettle lead. The outputs aren't regular 3-pin plugs, instead using C13 outputs. This might seem daft but you do get a smaller unit than it would be if there were six fullsize UK plug sockets on the back instead. I had to make a short adapter to plug in the transformer of my BT Home Hub 5 (3-pin socket on one end, C14 connector on the other). I also replaced the plug on my NAS drive with a C14 connector, which then plugged straight into the back of the UPS. I've probably made this sound more complicated than it is. If you know how to wire a standard plug, it's all very straightforward. I have a Synology NAS which, when connected to the UPS with the supplied USB cable, allows the NAS to shut down safely and automatically after either a fixed period of time, or when the UPS battery runs low. In either case, low UPS battery will force the NAS to safely shut down anyway. I only have my Home Hub 5 and NAS connected to the UPS. My phone line is VoIP so with no internet, I have no phone, which would be bad in emergency situations. Using this UPS, the display claims that it will support both devices for approximately 66 minutes. When the NAS goes into sleep mode (i.e. not used for an hour), power requirements will be minimal and the UPS support period will be even longer. It has a nice display on the front which shows you various information including power input voltage/frequency, output voltage, current draw, battery charge level, expected battery runtime, and more. You swap through the screens by each press of the "Display" button. The screen auto-powers off after a few seconds if not touched. There is also a Mute button which can be used to switch off the very audible warning beep when there's a power cut. Overall, brilliant item that will hopefully protect my hardware for years to come.

Really pleased with this. The build quality is excellent and I managed to set it up with my Linux NAS and Home Assistant Pi in a couple of hours (with help from Gemini and chatgpt). I can easily monitor power, and my servers shutdown safely. I can run my cable router and a couple of light servers for 30 mins apparently though I haven't tried to run it out; long enough for most power blips anyway.

So what I was looking for was something to talk to my Synology NAS down from full power to a nice sleeping state- and also to power the main home modem/router for longer - a couple of hours. The nice things about this are that it is plug and play and has an lcd display as well. The USB connection to the Synology NAS - just works with minimal configuration - so the NAS now powers down gracefully in the event of a power failure after 5 minutes - unlike QNAP and Buffalo - have found Synology very sensitive to power blips - so this prevents me having to spend a lengthy amount of time bringing it back online. The LTE/Fixed Wireless Modem - is powered by the UPS - and seems to have 4-5 hours of runtime in a power loss situation ( - a standard modem that doesn't have to power a mast would probably run for much longer) For the size of the battery - this NAS is still fairly tidy and slots into a 4U slim horizontal space - and also runs fairly quiet. So overall all fairly happy with this - would have given it 5 stars if it came with a UK Plug and something like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B082VJLJLZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (So that you can seamlessly plug in whatever you need to)

Bought two years ago. Tested multiple times, worked fine every time I did. Today I had my first ever power shortage. Lights all flickered around the house, but all devices stayed on fine. EXCEPT everything connected to my UPS. All devices attached to it lost power and my Pi was corrupted. Useless enough as it is, but the fact that *everything* else in my house managed to remain on through the flicker makes this even more laughable. Not buying Cyberpower again.

Got this today for my QNAP TS-251D as we have had at least 1 powercut a week over the last month. Unboxed it, plugged it in then plugged in the qnap, then the usb comms cable between both and all is working well - the Qnap reckons it has about an hours runtime via this UPS which is great. Have tested it multiple times now and NAS keeps running. There is no power lead with the UPS but there is a kettle lead extension...the idea seems to be you use your existing desktop/NAS kettle lead to run the UPS and the supplied extension lead to power the computer off the NAS. Also, FYI, when i unboxed the UPS and wiggled it a little there was a rattle from the inside...however, after taking the front panel off this just seems to be down to some free space around the internal battery (2-3mm either side) so nothing to worry about. No issues and seems to be a nice compact unit. The LCD display is also a nice touch as well as it can show remaining battery (time and percent) as well and input/output consumption.

Great UPS which integrates with my Synology to gracefully shut it down. Holds a really good amount of charge that I can power my comms cabinet at home and 2 synology for over an hour.

5*****,obrigado.

Tutto ok

Ich nutze die CyberPower ValuePRO VP700EILCD als USV für mein Synology NAS. Sie wird sofort per USB erkannt und funktioniert einwandfrei. Das Display zeigt bei Bedarf alle wichtigen Informationen wie Spannung, Last und Batteriestatus übersichtlich an. Die Einrichtung war unkompliziert, und die USV erfüllt ihren Zweck absolut zuverlässig. Klare Empfehlung für alle, die ihre Geräte sicher vor Stromausfällen schützen möchten!

Cercavo un Ups compatibile con il mio NAS synology DS220j, silenzioso, che non scalda, non puzza e consumi poco. Questo fa al caso mio. Nessun rumore, silenziabile in caso di passaggio su batteria. Display molto utile (si auto spegne dopo 1min o 30min) anche se il load balancing non indica nulla. Per questo indico le 4 stelle oltre al fatto che nella confezione c'era solo un cavo IEC maschio/femmina. Per la fascia di prezzo (140€) nonostante non sia un sinewave pure, come qualità lo ritengo molto valida.

Funktioniert einwandfrei und leise. Hat den NAS und den Router schon einige Male über knapp 30min gerettet. Allerdings kann man sich nicht ganz auf die prognostizierte Zeit verlassen und man benötigt noch Schukoadapter mit Kaltgeräteanschluss. Ansonsten Top für den Preis.
