It isn't sine wave output which is going to make any decent power supply
less efficient and potentially unhappy.

The charge time is surprisingly high compared to a quality UPS.

Why are only 4 outlets powered on something that claims that much
capacity?

I also wonder why tiger direct is the only place I have ever seen
that brand.

Personally I am just waiting for the next time dell puts the APC SU1500
on sale for around $200 again so I can get a UPS for my wife's desktop.
I can't justify paying $600 for it though, so I will just be patient.
