I have actually ordered one for every person in my department. We are a multimedia specialist office so we rely on the energy saving features and surge protection features on a daily basis. Have not experienced any problems with it and i have had mine for a year now. Also, it reduces noise! That is such a great feature to have. Thanks!
My Tripp-Lite UPS backup has been a lifesaver. It was easy to setup and install. Knowing it has me covered makes it easier to weather our frequent storms.
We get quite a few outages per year i, due to which we have bought a whole house generator. However, it takes 5 - 10 seconds for the generator to kick in, which means we are still subject to losing power during the gap. The UPS units (we have two of this model and one BC350) keep our laptop from an uncontrolled shut-down and our smart TV w/DirecTV from having to re-set and re-program. This saves the about 10-15 minute reset time needed for the DirecTV receiver. That reset also meant that we lost the full guide information and On Demand for 24 hours. Even without a whole house generator, most blackouts are more like brownouts and the UPS unit would suffice for keeping power to the TVs and satellite receivers, as well as the internet router, during the quick outage.
I have used TrippLite products for years. When I added a new router to my system i upgraded to this model to insure I had enough protection for everything I was using. There have been several power outages in my area and each time the TrippLite has sounded the alarm so I could safely shutdown whatever i was working on and not have to worry about losing data. I'd recommend this product to anyone needing reliable backup power for a basic system.
I've used Tripp-Lite products for years with very few problems, and this UPS is no exception. Recently, we had a power outage that lasted almost 4 hours. I was able to shut down my computer gracefully, then my Tripp-Lite UPS held up my remaining broadband/wi-fi router so we continued to have VoIP phone service and Internet service via smartphone until the power came back on. This UPS is a great value for the dollars spent.
