  Top inverter

  I'm not one for posting reviews, but when you've got a great product, I think it's important to say so. I've had this inverter for nearly 5 years now and it hasn't let me down. Well, the battery operation hasn't been very useful, it's only been used two or three times (when I say useful, I mean when an appliance connected to it has been switched on), and it's true that my neighbourhood is rather 'quiet' as far as electricity is concerned, but I'm reassured that it protects my equipment. What's more, it doesn't make any noise (except, of course, in the event of a power cut, when you can hear it... but at least it warns you when it's running on battery). And as far as I'm concerned, it doesn't heat up that much, it's just a bit hot in the heat sink, but it never told me that it was overheating, even during the recent heatwaves (although I thought it might have been). In short, I don't regret this purchase, and I'm even reassured to know that my beautiful new PC is plugged in and protected by this UPS.

  UPS APC BV1000I-GR EASY UPS BV 1000VA AVR SCHUKO 230V

  The product meets my expectations, it's good value for money. I've had it installed for almost a month now, and there's been no negative feedback from the team.

  Extremely hot

  I don't recommend this UPS, even without any load, it heats up enormously... I was able to test two from the same series and found the same thing.
  
  So I'm wondering about the power consumption of this UPS, even at no load. Because when you say heating, you say energy, you say consumption.
  
  Beyond that, I wonder about the risk of fire.

  Very good power/price ratio.

  Perfect for a fixed gamer PC with screen without exceeding 600 W/1000 VA.
  Quiet operation in standby mode, passive cooling (no fan), noisier when switched on (inverter test that lasts only a few seconds) and during a power failure.
  Schuko" output sockets compatible with French plugs.

  Well received product

  The product was well received, well packed and complete. If not that it heats up a bit (electrical consumption?), I can't comment on the quality of the product because it was acquired too recently. If you send me back this questionnaire in 3 or 4 years, I will be able to tell you more about its reliability. Thank you

  Heats up.

  This inverter heats up a lot, even at no load, so much so that I have not yet dared to use it for fear of causing a fire and I continue to use the old one in spite of its obsolescence and its now reduced performance

  Excellent model

  I put this inverter to protect my sensitive devices with hard disk like my NAS, my TV box, but also the box, a Hub.
  I powered it up overnight to charge the battery properly and installed it.
  It works instantly and perfectly.
  It is very quiet, you can hear absolutely nothing at 1m
  I am very satisfied.

  Clooney would say, "What else?

  I wanted a "super" power strip, regulator, super-fuse, and grouping the main power supplies.
  This little guy supports my AMD 5950X + Radeon 6900XT + VAIO Be Quiet! + Corsair 1200w PSU + Samsung G9 Odyssey monitor (phew, the 55W version, not the old one with more than 100w...).
  The design with the 4 sockets is perfect, and flexible.
  Nothing to say: for this price, if you're thinking "would I get a UPS or not?", then go for this one. It's the best (and the best brand for decades!) for the price and capacity.
  And it's your insurance if you have a setup that cost you an arm and a leg: it costs only 1 finger.

  Perfect

  Functional and not noisy, compared to an Eaton Ellipse PRO 850 FR which produces a high-pitched electrical noise when operating. I've put my ear to the machine and it's there! And nothing to say about the rest. It's a nice baby though, an extra plug would have been great.

  Almost perfect

  So for the price it's just wow!
  Fully functional of course.
  
  It's a great tool to get the most out of your computer. It's a great tool to get the most out of your computer, it's a great tool to get the most out of your computer.
  For info more than 10 minutes with a pc i5 9600k, nvidia 1660super oc, a 32 inch screen and a small 75 watt amp.
  
  The only downside is the plastic smell during the first 3 days of operation (I have the impression that it fades afterwards).
  
  To be seen in the long term.

  great little inverter

  This little inverter does its job perfectly in case of a micro power cut, does not make any noise, does not heat up (max 45°C on the small open part of the heat sink). I put it on the desk and plugged in the computer, the monitor and the printer, which allows me to finish a work in progress and to stop everything cleanly in case of a long power cut. And all this for just over 100€.
  Thanks LDLC
