I bought this almost a year ago. It simply works. I have not had the issue with fan noise, but there are three computers in that room (that UPS is dedicated to one of them).
You want the BR24BPG external battery pack if you want to have time to do much of anything before shutting down the computer. It's an external battery pack that plugs into this, and roughly quadruples your run time. That can be very convenient. It's about the same size as the UPS itself. I think it contains the battery that should have been in the product to begin with, but that's what happens with consumer gear.
I'm in a very rural location (on top of an 8,300' mountain), where trees blow down on power lines, and lightning hits a lot. APC replaced an APC-protected motherboard once, without giving me any grief. That bought a lot of my loyalty to the brand.
This box works for me, especially with the external battery pack. [...]

I think APC did a nice job on the PRO series back-ups.
only downside is when you first plug it in, the fan runs for about 3 hours. but then it does turn off, and I havent heard it since
I like the new design with the black case and LCD display. you can see how many watts everything connected is using right there.
you can also FINALLY mute the speaker when its running off the battery (during a power outage). I have other older models, and they would beep every few seconds when running on battery backup power. so its nice you can mute it now
I would highly recommend this back-ups. once you get over the first 3 hours of listening to the fan (its not insanely loud BTW), I think you will really like it

The APC 1500 UPS is noisy when you first install it since it is charge the backup battery. When the battery is charged the fan(s) stop and the unit makes NO noise! I am using the device as a backup power supply for my 2011 Quadcore iMac 27", HP 2710 printer and cordless phone base. All-in-all this is a great device which I highly recommend! I own two other APC UPS devices and love their products.

The ProMariner 10 -amp battery charger was easy to install and with great instructions. I would recommend this product. This product charges two batteries at the same time.
