I bought this backup power supply in Sept 2010. It is still working, and is ideal for short term supply disruptions - such as from wind and rain storms. Works fine supporting my desktop pc and monitor, as well as my router and phone line. Would be ideal if the manufacturer can fix broken down devices, as I have a TrippLite Smart LCD1200 backup supply that died last year, after working for about 4 years.
This UPS was used to cleanup and stabilize power for an electrical switch used in charging and NMR magnet. The power boost for the switch was present on the power supply used to charge the magnet. The power for the boost needed to be stable and constant and the UPS did a marvelous job of providing what was required. I can now use it to provide clean constant power to other devices that are used here in the laboratory. I will gladly recommend this product.
I have used this product for over 4 years now, protecting my home computer, DSL modem, and printer in my office. We suffer periodic surges and brown outs (FPL folks) and despite the kitchen electronics suffering, my office equipment never misses a beat. I wholeheartedly will invest in another one of these tripp-lite products without misgivings when needed.
The product to keep you going when your power company can't. This is a very good product not only to keep you running, but to prevent damage to connected equipment. I have purchased and used many Tripp Lite products and have liked them all. I will buy more!
Good product. My first ominvs1500 lastest 7 years. I liked the product so much I ought a new one omnivs1000 and I'm sure I'll get the same great product I had with the first. I would recommend either one the omnivs 1500 or 1000 both worth the buy.
I have owned this ups for about a year and a half, i have many brown outs and surges being in an area where wind is very high. i leave my computer running pretty much 24/7 and have not once had an issue with this battery. it lasts a solid hour and a half no problem, i have had the battery die after a long outage, but it is fine for keeping something going when the power is out for a short ammount of time... i love this device
As a photography studio, we want to be sure we can get everything backed up to preserve our customer's files. We rarely get power outages except in the event of hurricanes and my Tripp-Lites have always worked flawlessly. We also do a lot of photography on location and it was recommended several years ago that we use Tripp-Lite Isobar Ultras for our lights and computers as public buildings often have "dirty" electricity. Since starting to use them we have not had to send a single light in for repairs due to the effects of the "dirty" lines. We NEVER plug anything straight into a wall socket anymore. Everything goes through an Isobar Ultra.
The triplite battery backup sustem has been a great product for us. We are in an area where we have been having many brownouts due to weather. I was able to keep working and save my work on my computer. I was so impressed , I bought one for every room in my home and office that has a computer or tv.
