Great product for cleaning up utility power issues

I am a broadcast engineer and our new transmitter, as is common these days, had internal power supplies designed by third parties. Unfortunately, those third parties apparently didn't know anything about the realities of the broadcast business. They thought the best way to "protect" themselves from surges was to shut the power supply and wait for someone to reset it manually. Not very helpful for a transmitter on a mountain top that can take several hours to reach depending on the weather! While our transmitter had redundant systems, unfortunately, we often found our selves off the air because the same power surge resulted in both primary and backup system power supplies shutting down. The building of course had a surge protector to protect against harmful surges, but these power supplies shut down for even minor surges. We decided to try the LC1200 to protect our primary system, leaving the backup system "unprotected" to test how well the LC1200 helped. The LC1200 virtually eliminated these troublesome power supply shut downs, so we purchased another one for the backup system, and now we seldom have to visit the mountain top to deal with these problems and we haven't been off the air at all due to such a problem since. The LC1200s provided an economical solution to our problems and I'd recommend them to anyone who has utility power that has issues. I should say that I don't fault our utility company... it is just the nature of our location that makes things tough.

I DJ and in one venue the electricity is questionable. My two mixers both shut down as a precaution and this was due to poor feed from the AC outlet. I now have peace of mind that this will no longer be a problem with my new TrippLite line conditioner. I use this in conjunction with a TrippLite surge protecting power strip.

I use this to protect my computer, my wife's computer and a LOT of associated equipment. If I had been more careful about what I plugged into the old one, it would probably still be trustworthy, but I had some powered speakers and a printer plugged in that would overload it and I finally abused it too much. I'm sure it helped my equipment last longer. Many UPSs have died while that unit lived on. This new one has more information on display. It has an open top grill that I will have to keep an eye on over the years of dust. I hear the small click of the unit going into action every time I use the microwave in the kitchen-it is constantly in use.

I needed something to protect my musical instruments from voltage changes. This product should be the answer. What I have paid in repairs in the past, this is cheap insurance.

Flawless performance

My computers, printers, networking devices, and disks became too much for my old line conditioner. I replaced it with an LC1200 and have had no problems or issues with it or the equipment it protects through several power surges and blips. That is the best praise for a line conditioner -- NOTHING happened!

This product does exactly what was intended for me. I plug my laser printer into it and now my computer which is on the same circuit does not get turned off. It does click when engaged, however this is just a minor inconvenience as it performs perfectly otherwise.
Pros: Compact, Great Protection
Cons: Clicks when engaged
