Tripp Lite Power Compact Inverter, 3000W, 12VDC, 120V, (2) 5-15R; (2) 5-20R, 4-Outlets for RVs,Trucks, Fleet Vehicles & Emergency Vehicles (PV3000HF) Power Inverter 3000W Standard

Worked perfectly for four months then burnt out.

the unit performs well, but the fan is always on, even if no load or very little load is drawn. if the unit even just has a basic on/off function for the fan to keep it off when the unit is could i would have given it 4 stars. with an rpm controlled fan i would have given it 5 stars. it's just sad that they felt a need to save the 50 cents on the components necessary for a thermal fan control.

Compré el inversor con UPS para respaldo de equipo de video vigilancia de un fraccionamiento tengo conectado 3 DVR unas 25 cámaras, internet y una pantalla todo funciono bien llevo con el un mes y lo he probado 3 veces y sin ningún problema no se apagan el monitor ni los grabadores cuando se activa el UPS es robusto le conecte una batería de gel y recomiendo leer bien el instructivo para no tener problemas ya que tiene varias configuraciones. El nobreak solo me daba de 15 minutos las baterías se dañaban constantemente y ahora tengo 3 hrs de respaldo sin el monitor prendido. El único pero que le vi es que su onda senoidal no es pura.

Had this ASP1250 in our off the grid cabin for 3 years. We go to the cabin about once a month for a few days. It started doing weird things after 2 years of occasional use. It was also getting very noisy. Decided to contact support a few months ago and they guided me through a series of trouble shooting steps. I have to say that they responded fairly quickly. In the end they told me that the unit was malfunctioning and needed to be replaced. So not very good for only 3 years of occasional use. Also, note that this unit's battery charger doesn't do equalization which is an important feature. And when choosing an inverter charger, look for the longest warranty possible.

I paired this with a Marine (deep-cycle) AGM battery with a 92 AH capacity. Since I only need to keep my primary server and cable modem running during a power outage, this should give me about 3 hours+ of runtime. That should be more than enough to keep my domains available. There are some very expensive long-run UPS units out there, running into the thousands of dollars. There are relatively inexpensive units for the SOHO (small office/home office) market. But this unit represents a customizable and affordable solution for people like me. It also provides me the option to add more batteries (of the same type, of course) in parallel for even longer run times. So while the price might seem steep, it's actually an economical investment. After all, when you compare ten or twenty minutes of backup power to three hours plus... It's solidly-built and the manufacturer has a stellar reputation, well-earned. Very highly recommended!
