CyberPower PFC Sinewave UPS, 1500VA $130

I bought this exact USP in June 2017. It works very well. The only issue with mine is that the LED in the power light flickers.

This produces a true sine wave so it's compatible with PFC switching power supplies. Since these type of UPS also act as a line conditioner, I have my turntable plugged into it.

It's a very good price, but Amazon is grossly overstating the savings. I find it annoying when they do that. Notice they show the "list price" of $260 compared to the deal day price for a total savings of $130. Trouble is no one sells that unit for list. B&H Photo and Newegg sells it for $200. I suspect when the sale is over, so will Amazon.

That said, nice price for that hefty a UPS and true sine wave.

I paid $210 in 2017. I didn't notice the list price of $260. I think Amazon must have raised it at some point because I don't remember paying that much off list. If it were that much, I would've been looking at APC's UPS.

I had 3 of those with the true sine wave. I hated all 3 of them. They just spontaneously fail with some PF code displayed and nothing you can do about it. I've gone back to APC. More reliable.

Bought it 2 years ago for 120 bucks and it's been chugging along. I have my NAS on it and so far no issues.
