- It works very well. And has a real decent runtime.

What customers say about "Features"
APC SMC1500I Uninterruptible Power Supply 1500VA
- The USB interface is simple and it controls my Synology DS 1513+.
- Looks good, it quiet and does the job perfectly.
- Few weeks in and works like a charm. Very easy setup, coped with a number of powercuts already flawlessly.
- LCD screen is larger whereas the others are like a single line textbox.
- Annoyingly the notification email set up won't work with MS O365 - you have to roll O365 back.
APC SMC1500IC Uninterruptible Power Supply 1500VA
- These have survived multiple power spikes and power cuts and work flawlessly.
- The display is simple and intuitive, the apparatus given also its capabilities, is a little big and heavy but I would say that it is not at all a defect.
- It does not heat the slightest and its ability to intervene, which I tested in various situations, is ready and excellent.
- The cloud is a great tool that allows you to detect power drops.
- The only negative nonta is the cloud part a bit minimalist and with few functions.
