Defective product

Product delivered without software and with an out of order battery! 300 euros for the thing. I'll have to send this 10 kilo package back! Thank you! I will never buy from this site again. I will never buy from this site again. It was the first time

        Perfect inverter

        This is a UPS that I use for the security of my servers. It is coupled to a raspberry pi driver which is perfectly supported by NUT under Linux. Very solid inverter design. And perfect indication of charging (and hardware charging) and discharging information. It's a UPS that I recommend.

        Ellipse pro 1600

        Works perfectly. The fan is a little noisy and runs continuously. It is impossible to switch it off manually.

        BRUYANT

        Space, plugs, perfect.
        But no connection to Apple.
        The fan is quite noisy, too bad.

        very good product

        Bought it after monthly power cuts and the last one destroyed my motherboard and 2 hard drives. Already several months of operation. Quiet product. I had a power cut and the inverter did its job, the battery took over. The advantage is that you can plug in other devices (4 sockets) to have a regulated and stable current but not backed up by the battery and you have 4 other sockets backed up by the battery. Management software to download online. I only regret not having bought it earlier. I advise you to equip yourself with an inverter to avoid premature wear of the devices and especially to protect them against power surges and sudden power cuts.

        Reliable and indispensable product.

        2nd inverter that I acquire, this last one fills perfectly its functions, having a NAS and a computer of a certain power to protect from a rather unreliable electric network, I am perfectly satisfied to be able to use my material in spite of numerous cuts without even feeling them.
        I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use it in a room with a power outage, but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use it in a room with a power outage, so I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use it in a room with a power outage.
        The display is very practical to follow your consumption and the state of your equipment and the integrated software allows to control your equipment automatically.
        (For example, for my part, my UPS turns off the NAS automatically after a certain time of power cut)
        This is very useful when you are not at home and want to have peace of mind for your equipment.
        My overall opinion is, if you need to protect your hardware, I can only encourage you to buy this device.

        Fortunately, I sleep with earplugs...

        Recently installed with the rest of my equipment (big PC with 5 HDDs + NAS 4 HDDs + 27 inch screen) in my room.
        So, not the ideal place because of the noise of the fan (which covers the 6 of the PC).
        I'm not worried about it working in case of electrical problems on the network but EATON should think about finding another ventilation solution...

        Good product, but delivery leaves something to be desired

        The product itself is good. I had to have it loaded 24 hours before using it. The only downside is the delivery, the product arrived in its original packaging. I know it's more environmentally friendly, but for an inverter it's better to pack it well to avoid it getting damaged!

        very good inverter

        The battery has a long life.
        Space-saving.
        The noise of the fan is not higher than that of a fixed PC. Except in case of a power cut where the noise is higher.
        I recommend it.

        Easy to use product, hard to find software

        Product works perfectly. The software for PC is impossible to obtain via the French site, resort to the US site of EATON (Software: UPS Companion). Apart from that, very good, like my two other UPS of the same brand, always guaranteed after registration on their site; just a change of batteries for the oldest, that's all.
        The only flaw is that the ventilation is noisy, like a powerful PC under medium load, not very annoying in the office or at home, but not recommended in a bedroom, for example. Hence only four stars.
        Inverter tested once the battery was properly charged, the hardware did not flinch.
        Eat some!

        I'm very pleased with this product, the only downside is that the battery backup charge is a bit low and lasts between 18 and 22 minutes, so I'm not sure I'll be able to use it again in the future.

        I bought this UPS for a small Proxmox 6 server (based on Debian 10). The configuration was not a problem. Other than that, good value for money.

        I use this UPS for my two synology NAS (2disks), I also connect my switch to it and it allows me to control the shutdown of the two devices when the UPS runs out of batteries. I have 1 hour of autonomy which is more than 98% of the power cuts.

        The new model (I had the old one) has a relatively noisy ventilation, a little too much to be installed in a living room.

        Nothing to Say Again.

        The '5 Star' rating is justified for several reasons:
        The first is for the Seller, the package arrived on time, and in perfect condition. A red 'FRAGILE' label would be a plus, as it had no other packaging than that of the supplier, fortunately the material was well packaged.
        The second was for commissioning, it must be said that the priority for the UPS was the protection of a SYNOLOGY NAS. Once connected to the NAS, it was immediately detected. And I was able to test its efficiency this weekend. A bit noisy when it works, but you have to know what you want.
        As I had some extra sockets and power reserve, I took the opportunity to connect my computer and a 3D printer.

        Very good

        Very good product, works perfectly, very good autonomy during a power failure.

        I did a test to see how long it could power all the devices plugged into it 30min real (big pc, nas 4 HDs, 5.1 sound.

        It's a bit noisier than my PC in stand-by mode and very noisy in battery mode, but it's a PRO version so I don't hold it against it.

        I recommend you will not be disappointed

        I've been using this product for a while now, but I'm not sure I'll ever be able to use it again....

        Perfect

        For the use I have of it it is perfect!
        I hesitated for a long time but I am serene now that it is in place.
        It allows me to secure my big setup as well as all the small devices on my desk (laptop, printer, consoles) in addition to securing my tower and my screen.

        Perfect to have time to save your photo processing before the crash.

        Very good product

        So far the Eaton Ellipse PRO 1600 FR is working flawlessly. I was a bit annoyed at first with the software installation, but it was enough to connect the inverter to the PC with the USB cable and windows 7 did everything by itself.

        The package is shipped bare (12.5kg). There is no disk.
        Included are:
        -The Eaton Ellipse PRO 1600 FR
        -The power cable
        -USB cable

        simply fabulous!

        Excellent value for money, very quiet, powerful with its 1600 VA, responsive to the slightest anomaly, in short, I am delighted and totally satisfied. (I have bought 2 of them).
        The only regret, as usual, is the packaging!

        Answer by [Eaton]: on 13 Jun 2018

        Hello,

        The power rating and the AVR system of this inverter requires a fan cooling system (Line-Interactive technology and not Off-line). The noise level is 25dBA in normal mode (and about 45dBA in AVR or battery mode). This product is initially dedicated to the protection of sensitive professional equipment, not domestic applications. For these applications, we suggest that you choose the Ellipse ECO range which is totally silent.

        Sincerely yours.

        Discreet and efficient

        One for the PC, monitor, printer, router, box, tel. and the other for the home cinema, amp, BD player, TV, in an area where storms and power cuts are common, it's perfect.
        Very quiet (less noise than the PC tower), just a downside for the basic packaging which is almost disposable, arrived a bit damaged but the hardware intact.
        The Eaton UPS Companion software works well under Windows 10 and allows, among other things, to configure the activation of the Eco-Control sockets, which is useful for switching off the screen and the printer after switching off the PC.

        Immediate installation and commissioning, integration in a Mac OSX environment without any manipulation. To sum up, if like me you absolutely need electrical continuity... this is the right choice.

        Ubuntu and soufferie

        Two comments:
        - Under ubuntu the EIPP software works well:
        "Eaton Intelligent Power Protector
        Intelligent Power Protector is a free protection software offered by Eaton Corporation. It allows users to prevent data loss by automatically shutting down computers and servers powered by an Eaton UPS in the event of a prolonged power loss.
        The software provides an easy-to-use, multilingual interface from any PC with a web browser. Exceptionally versatile, Intelligent Power Protector acquires information from the UPS through local or network communication and can be easily deployed on multiple computers.
        Intelligent Power Protector can be remotely monitored, configured and updated with our Intelligent Power Manager monitoring software. Intelligent Power Manager can be downloaded free of charge from the Eaton website for monitoring a network of up to 10 nodes."

        - Wind tunnel:
        It's a good thing I need more than one inverter because this one, which was meant to power the computer in the bedroom, had to change its destination because the wind tunnel is so annoying. It works even when the computer is switched off.

        The device is as I expected and works well.
        As some of the comments already made, it was delivered in its original packaging only, as if you had removed it on the spot. I have never seen a piece of equipment shipped like this since I started ordering here. Also no discretion.

        So, LDLC, do something about it. There your quality process is lacking.

        The "reasonable" price of quietness, even if it is not totally silent!

        I have already had an EATON Ellispe ECO for 3 years, which I am very happy with and which is totally silent. This one is a little less quiet, but not much less than a PC tower.

        However, for the price difference, I do not regret not having taken an ECO 1600 but a PRO model.

        For the delivery, it's simple, from now on I order my UPS without any other item.

        Good inverter

        I have had several inverters, three APCs and one MG. This one is the best I have had so far. It is very quiet unlike my previous APC, which made a constant irregular noise so I had to sequester it in another room. It does its job perfectly. It heats up a bit but nothing unmanageable. It was delivered to a shop in Paris so no problem with delivery.

        Price and quality

        I've been using the Eaton's for a while now and I'm very pleased with the quality of the product.
        I've been using it for a long time and it's a great value.
        The inverter is very compact considering the power required.
        To conclude, this is the TOP UPS that will effectively protect all your peripherals as well as your PC.

        As usual

        I had bought an EATON PRO 650 before and this one is no exception to the rule of being perfect.
        I live in an apartment that has power outages from time to time and I needed to protect a good PC and a whole bunch of other configurations behind it.
        This one does the job well. I have to say that I am very pleased with the quality of the product and the service.
        I've been using it for a while now, but it's a good idea to check it out and see if it's working properly. I've been using it for a while now and it's not too bad.

        Good product, but catastrophic shipping

        I couldn't believe it when I saw the package arrive... without packaging. LDLC just stuck a delivery label directly on the original box, and off it went, without protection or anonymization.

        Fortunately everything seemed intact so I accepted the delivery. The inverter works perfectly and is as I expected.

        But I will not order from this site again until I am sure that the packages are properly packed before shipping...

        Excellent Product

        Bought to secure 2 rendering nodes, holds the charge perfectly for more than 10 minutes in case of a power cut with both machines fully charged (100% CPU load).
        The smell of "new" very present the first days disappears quite quickly, perfectly silent.

        I was very pleased with the service and the quality of the product.
        I have been using it for a while now and it is very easy to use.
        I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the product in a different way, but it's a good idea to use it in a different way, because it's a good idea to use it in a different way.
        Apart from this very, very occasional annoyance, the product is very good in every respect.
        I highly recommend it, especially when the order coincides with special operations on the inverters.

        Nothing to complain about

        Quiet product, holds the load perfectly. The consumption indication is useful to know better the consumption of the Pc (much less than I imagined, 152W of consumption on average for a 1000w Pc power supply!) On the other hand, no packaging except the original box. Everything depends on the "delicacy" of the deliveryman.

        Perfect

        Easy to install, complete display panel and successfully tested during a power cut. I have put 1 PC, 1 printer, 1 box, 1 router, 2 servers, 3 hard disks which are powered during 30 minutes max. I am completely satisfied with my purchase.

        Good product, but!!!

        I bought it quickly because of some problems with the electricity network and it does the job well. It doesn't make any noise, not during power cuts or tests (heard once in a month). The screen is interesting and informs us about the power, duration, in short recommended for the price.

        I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea. The original box arrived exploded, the polystyrene bits next to it, and the inverter was still inside by miracle. I'm not sure if this is normal from a company like yours!
