Recommended models: Value SOHO series, UT series
Cyberpower is a Taiwanese manufacturer founded in 1997. Unlike APC, Cyberpower does not have a giant background in industrial and telecom high-power UPS. However, in the small and medium-power market, Cyberpower is APC's strongest competitor.
On Amazon's sales list in the United States, Cyberpower and APC are evenly divided, and out of the total 100 seats on the list, the two companies occupy about 70% of the total number of seats on the list all year round. In 2018, all three of the "Best UPS" recommended by The Wirecutter were Cyberpower products. Among the three UPSs recommended by PC gamer, one is APC and two are Cyberpower. The two companies have nearly dominated the North American market and remain highly competitive in other geographies.
Cyberpower's popularity in the field of low-power UPS has even surpassed APC, and this is because Cyberpower is more cost-effective than APC. All of its UPS are online interactive or online, and there is no backup, but the price is more affordable than APC.
The high-end low-power Value SOHO series, which covers almost all the main functions of UPS at a lower price, is the most representative product of Cyberpower. Similar to APC's BACK UPS Pro, Value SOHO is NAS-compatible, has an LCD information screen, automatic voltage regulation and stabilization function, and uses patented energy-saving technology to consume less power in standby mode.
The Value SOHO series has a wide range of power options, from 600~2200VA to 4 models, supporting 360~1320W loads, which can cover almost all household needs. At present, the price of the Value SOHO series is 358~2500 yuan, especially its smallest power Value600ELCD, which meets so many functions at a price of less than 400 yuan, and is definitely the most cost-effective among all UPS products.
The BU and UT series are the basic models of Cyberpower, the low-power UPS uses the internal current limit of the fuse as an overload protection, and the parts need to be manually replaced after the fuse, while the models above 1000VA use a more convenient circuit breaker, which can be reset with one key after overload.
Even if the positioning is low in the Cyberpower products, the BU and UT series are online interactive UPS, so all models have automatic voltage regulation function, and the applicability is very high in areas with unstable voltage (industrial areas, old residential areas, etc.). The power of the two series is 550~2200VA, and the maximum load can be 1300W. Depending on the model, the price is 200~800 yuan.
