We have several 5130 and 9125 models (2kVA rackmount), never given us a 
problem in years of service... Well, one network management card that lost 
its mind, reset the configuration and went on with life, but the UPS just 
chugged along. Biggest plus has been that they don't cook their batteries 
like APCs do.
