Energy efficient Back-UPS by APC

Smart more intelligent access to plug-in then most UPS's
Very energy efficient, barely gets warm to the touch unlike some older/previousluy used Back-UPS.
LCD Screen is better then last rev/version, could be bigger and in color... a touch interface would be great. HP is using on their inexpensive ink-jet printers, imagine APC can figure out how to use the same components cost effectively, too! Over-all, nice improvement over previous gen. (highly recommend)

For the first time APC is a big let down with this model.
1. Fins in the battery compartment that also allow for air circulation are too thin and have snapped off and have gotten into the unit. I can hear bits of plastic move around inside when handling the unit. There were also little round pieces that came out of the battery compartment when I turned over the battery.
2. PowerChute 3.0 has issues with Windows UAC (User Account Control). Every time you boot your computer you have to allow/disallow PowerChute to run. (This is a known issue and a fix is being worked on - from talking to tech. support). Download an earlier version to get around this issue (version 2.X).
3. Using the coax data line protection on this model increased my "Upstream Power Level" by 2 more dBmV's (55 dBmV vs. 53 dBmV) than my last APC UPS (APC BACK-UPS RS 1300VA LCD) .
4. Plugging my printer (HP Inkjet) into the green "Controlled Outlet" upon turning on the computer or waking it, my printer turns on also...then turns off (just a weird observation).
5. Instructions could be better.

APC XS 1500 *** DO NOT BUY ****

Comments about APC Back-UPS® XS 1500VA 10-Outlet Power-Saving UPS:

We have tried to use this model to power some scientific equipment which has a total power demand of 220W, so we felt that this UPS would serve our needs well.

Unfortunately, we have gone through about 20 of these units and at least 5 of them arrived **dead on arrival** and needed to be exchanged and the units which have been used here in our test laboratory have failed to provide any backup capability whatsoever because the battery life is extremely short.

Relying on this model of UPS would be foolish.

Comments about APC Back-UPS® XS 1500VA 10-Outlet Power-Saving UPS:

Works reliably, with a new refined look, less weight, and much nicer set up than before, no sparking wires that you have hook up.

It's a little expensive, but seems better than previous generations. We'll have to wait and see, the previous generation 1500va's typically broke down in 3-4 yrs.
