Customer Reviews for Tripp Lite - PowerVerter APS 750W Inverter/Charger - Continuous Power: 750 W

This 750w inverter/charger/transfer switch replaced a failed on-line inverter, and repurpose a separate power supply used for battery charging. Provides 120vac backup for my residential network and entertainment systems, things that do not like an occasional trip and reclose from utility. Using two surplus 12v 180ah VRLA telecom type batteries in the house, more than enough for typical service interruptions here. I am not a fan of small UPS's, I've found them to be failure prone when you need them, and throw away when they do fail. A side note about Tripp Lite. My work truck had a 1970s vintage silver colored 1,000w Tripp Lite mobile inverter mounted in the utility bodies of my 4WD service trucks. Square wave output but worked fine for power tools, all the way up to a Milwaukee Hole Hog. Tough unit, those trucks lived hard lives on rough roads here in the Colorado Rockies. The inverter migrated with me to new trucks thru the years as a proudly held possession. Still worked when I retired recently, although I heard from a coworker that it may have finally become deceased after 30+ years of service. That's quality worthy of mention.

This thing really saved the day on an extended power outage.

I bought this unit to backup my 100 gallon aquarium filters, pumps, and heaters in case of a power outage. I hooked 2 deep cycle marine batteries in parallel for the emergency power. We lost power one night in a storm and it was almost 18 hours before it was restored. This unit provided pure, clean sine wave power to all the aquarium devices and the aquarium never missed a beat. Filters worked flawlessly and heaters kept steady temps. It saved my tank! I am thinking to add another unit to backup my security and surveillance systems.

Bought this unit after going through three other brands of so called "inverters". This unit does what it says it will do. Use the APS750 with a small 2000W generator and a single deep cycle marine 12V battery. Used to provide power to a remote cabin. I regularly power a 1400W toaster in the mornings without firing up my generator. Bottom line, "it just works" and it does it well. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

From an owner of the Tripp Lite APS 750

I brought one of these down to Costa Rica to deal with the semi regular unexpected power outages. I hooked it up to two 100 amp hour deep cycle batteries. This will run my lights, electronics, wifi, computer, music and short use of tools for a day or more (maybe much longer/ never tested). ...with higher energy draws like the refrigerator, pumps, washer, dryer, air conditioner left off the same power out lines. My APS has been working flawlessly for 4 years in a humid beach climate. My burglar deterrents hooked up to this system work 24/7 even when the grid is off line. ... Best deal on the market.

Very happy

I use this product as backup protection for my coal stove during power outages. The stove needs a reliable 120v power supply to operate properly. The APS750 has never let me down switching instantly to battery during an outage and back to the grid again when power is restored. In my opinion a very well made, reliable and affordable product. Thank you!

They made my office hurricane proof.

I have 7 computers in my office, all connected to a large server and they all have the APS 750 or 1250 inverters. My only recommendations is that you always use the Gel Batterys otherwise these inverters last 2 years. When a hurricane hits florida and electricity goes out, I am running for days on my system. I even plug in lamps and fans so we can continue to work into the night if need be.
