Give my PC and WHS 30 minutes of power in the event of a power outage which is more then enough to handle the brief outages we sometimes experience out here.

None yet.

I have a 47in Sony BR4 LCD TV and a 100w stereo system w/HD DVD player and UPS only shows 1/2 load. Great!

None, so far.

Great price and PCNation service (with free shipping) was also a bonus.

Pros:
Smaller than my previous 550VA UPS and has more durability. Nice software and front panel LCD status. Quiet and no perceptable heat.
Cons:
It''s dark under my desk.
Comment:
This is one of those things you don''t know you need until you need it... kinda'' like life insurance. My old UPS died, I unhooked it and procrastinated replacing it, then, I had a power surge. Hello Murphy! After spending several hours re-loading two PCs, I''m sold on having a UPS and current backup images.

Pros:
Easy installation of software, has functioned well during outages
Cons:
really lousy power butoon, a lot of play in it. Have to press it several times to get it to either turn on or off.
Comment:
If this were an easy item to return I would because of the power button. It feels like really cheap plastic and doesn''t have a positive click in and out. There is a lot of play around the edges as well. Some people have complained that the LED display doesn''t stay lit but that to me is a bonus, I don''t need a constant blue light on and don''t go for all those LED''s on PC''s... it''s a computer not a Christmas tree.

Pros:
This unit is an outstanding value for the price. The ability to get 100% of the information about your UPS from the front panel LCD will spoil you. The unit is standards compliant and is well supported by UPS monitoring software in Linux as well as Windows. It provides pleanty of backup power for my quad-core (125W) processor and mother board with 8800GT graphics and 4 hard drives (19 minutes of runtime - 23% load)(second server has 35 minutes runtime - 18% load) All in all, a very pleasant surprise.
Cons:
None really. Just be mindful not to hit the On/Off button instead of the LCD information button when you are looking at the UPS information on the LCD display.
Comment:
I have over a dozen UPS units purchased over the past decade and I had never owned an CyberPower until I purchased this model (I have now bought 2). When it came time to by my last UPS, there was no question about what UPS I would buy. Similarly, there is no question about the next UPS model I will buy -- this one.

Extra stuff I don''t care about
Comment:
Delivery was quick and as advertised. I was pleasantly surprised that the battery came already charged. The UPS has a vertical case design, which I like. Others have noted the close spacing of outlets, so I knew I would need to use a power strip. I made no attempt to install the control software as I don''t need it for my installation. I like the display information and the blue color of the display.
