1500 VA UPS with pure sine wave
The APC BGM1500B-US is a new 1500 VA / 900 W tower battery backup that delivers pure sine wave output for sensitive electronics. It provides ten NEMA 5-15R outlets, six of which supply battery backup while four offer surge protection only. An interactive LCD display and two USB-A plus one USB-C charging ports allow convenient monitoring and device charging.
Gamers and home-office users needing clean power
This unit suits desktop PCs, consoles and networking gear that require uninterrupted, distortion-free power during outages. RGB ambient LED lighting adds a visual accent for gaming setups. Builders who need rack-mountable hardware or longer runtime at full 900 W load should consider other form factors, as this model is tower-only and provides roughly four to five minutes at maximum load.
Six battery-backed outlets with USB charging
The six NEMA 5-15R battery-backed outlets are the specification that determines whether this UPS can support your critical devices simultaneously. Four additional surge-only outlets handle peripherals that do not need backup. A 16-hour recharge time restores the replaceable lead-acid battery after discharge.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the battery-backup or surge-only outlets for my gaming PC?
Connect the PC and monitor to the six battery-backup outlets so they stay on during an outage; use the four surge-only outlets for speakers, router or other gear that can tolerate a brief power loss.
What does the 900 W rating mean when my rig is running a heavy load?
The unit can supply up to 900 W continuously; at that full load the battery lasts roughly four to five minutes, giving you time to save work and shut down safely.
What does the USB port actually let me do?
The USB port enables communication with PowerChute software for automatic shutdown, battery-status monitoring and configurable alerts on a connected computer.
