About CyberPower CP825AVRLCD Intelligent LCD UPS System
Overall Feedback:
66% positive
67% appreciated the response time, while 33% experienced a delay
I expected 39 minutes of uptime according to the table printed on the box, but according to the diagnostic software, I can only expect less than half that, 16 minutes.
CyberPower took 3 days to reply to each email.
68% found it whisper-quiet, while 32% thought it was loud
The warning beep is not that loud and I haven't looked into how to silence it since my stuff is in a closet and I wouldn't hear it anyway.
Even after silencing the UPS, I could still hear the beeping faintly, indicating that it is not whisper-quiet.
I have been dealing with the UPS beeping for years. It has a silent mode, but it still beeps. I receive calls from people in panic asking how to make it stop.
65% liked the battery life, but 35% found it didn't last
The UPS battery life averages about 42 minutes.
I gave 3 stars because the battery lasted for 3 years.
With my gaming PC, the battery lasts for about 10 minutes.
I am disappointed that the battery went bad after the warranty expired.

67% liked the compatibility with multiple devices, but 33% had issues
The UPS is incompatible with Active Power Factor Correction power supplies in PCs, which can lead to potential damage in the event of a power outage.
I was told by customer service that my computer is not compatible with my current UPS and I need to purchase a 'sinewave' UPS which costs around $130 for the cheapest model.
I was let down to find out that the UPS only supports 10/100 LAN and not Gigabit LAN, which is important for Network Storage.
72% appreciated the control features, while 28% found them confusing
Monitoring with a computer or LCD is a good added feature.
When I connect the UPS to my computer via USB cable, it disables the Windows power scheme, which turns off the display after X minutes.
66% liked the durable construction, but 34% found it flimsy
My UPS never fails to keep my computer equipment going, even in a rural area with frequent outages.
The UPS lasts for 3 years.
The internal quality of the UPS is poor and cheaply made, with some of the worst solder joints I have ever seen.
I noticed two physical issues with the product - the mounting holes are not in the most convenient place and the buttons feel loose. This could make installations/applications annoying.
67% praised the high power capacity, while 33% found it insufficient
After a full overnight charge, running the self test does not provide backup power as intended on the CP750 Model, despite claiming to only be at a 30% load with 100% battery power.
I am experiencing an issue with the UPS beeping and having no output power, despite good incoming power.
The power capacity of the UPS is not as advertised. When using more than 300 Watts at a time, I get about 6 minutes, and when nearing the 450 watt max, I am lucky to have two minutes.
The UPS runtime depends on the power capacity of the device connected to it. For a 200 W device, the runtime is 11 minutes, and for a 240 W device, it is 15 minutes or more.
