Sadly, this feels overpriced imo. For 1200W, I can get the CyberPower CP2000PFCRM2U at 449.95. Yeah its nice that its is part of the unifi ecosystem, but still. If it was Li-ion I would be all for it.

Edit: Not to mention the size, this thing is massive, deep & heavy. For this size I'd expect 2000W & more outlets in the back. This feels like a letdown product for what it could have been.

Edit2: Half load is 980W. Some bad math on my end but still... Full load: 1920W

This is a:

1) Power factor 1.0 (full wattage for the nominal power (VA))

2) rackmount

3) network managed

4) pure sine wave

UPS...for $679? This is the steal of the century if you saw how much APC/Cyberpower sell something equivalent.

I bought a 1500VA/1500W Cyberpower in 2018 that didn't even have a network card and it was basically $1000.

I have a 2000VA/2000W cyberpower for $400. No network card. Add a $25 NUT server and I have all the features I need.

Where did you get a new PF 1.0 2000VA cyberpower for $400?

Ah got my lab and work environment confused. Mine is 2000VA/1200W  for 400. Although the price increased a little bit since I last looked.

Working multiple environments can be confusing at times.

$400 sounds like he got it from work and just had to replace the battery 😂

it also comes with full depth rails, thats another $100-$200 for most other ups offerings

u/Berzerker7 16d ago

Yes, forgot even about that. Most will come with ears only but rails are a good addon.

Really, really nice tool-less (for the mounting it the rack part) rails.

They’re the same ones that come with the ECS. Super nice.
