100% not correct. Modern electronics, especially, run on simulated sign wave perfectly fine.

Because you're providing zero actual information… just general comments.
All modern PSUs utilize PPFC (part of the EU standard), not APFC… as APFC is still more expensive and needs further stages. Passive PFC doesn't care about simulated sine wave.
You sound like one of those guys that BestBuy convinced they need a conditioner on their AC input to their Sony stereo…
Details are important.

from my experience UPS has pretty high failure rate (electrical faults / control board failures) in a few years, if it's out of warranty better off just get a new one.
Question for the masses. I am looking for a couple battery backups for the office to cover the moments we have a quick power outage and everyone loses power/work at that moment. I only see people chiming in to say this brand or that is junk, and must be sine (or whatever). I never see people recommending a great brand or a great model. Any opinions on a great office battery backup with surge?

I've been running the same Cyberpower 1350VA for 15 years now (2009). I've changed the batteries a few times and it's still working. It has saved my computer from shutdown when the power blinks on and off and has shut down my system gracefully during longer outages with the included software. It is only "true sine wave" or "simulated sine wave" for the couple of seconds or minutes while on battery power and that isn't often. If it still bothers you, there is a "true sine wave" 1500va model on the costco website for $199.99.
APC has a few Pure Sine units. Pick one of those. Any of the cheap units (under 200) will be simulated sine wave which are no good for modern electronic equipment.

Buy a new one or get a replacement battery for one I already own?
