Tripp Lite LC1200 Line Conditioner 1200W AVR Surge 120V 10A 60Hz 4 Outlet 7-Feet Cord White

I have two of these, for over ten years so far. Still going strong, and I haven't had a single piece of equipment fail due to PSU problems on them thanks to the steady power provided. I haven't had any lightning surges to test their protection on that count - thankfully! - but they have kept computers running when line voltage blinks and dips in brownouts and once with a serious drop over the grid automatic rerouting latency when a nearby transformer blew out.They make a loud click when switching, so if that's a problem, get something else. I have no other criticisms; the function and quality are both excellent, with great longevity.

I am a working musician and play out of a full PA system a couple of times a week. I make loop-based music with guitars and vocals overlaid on top. I am powering 3 active speakers, a mixer, a guitar amp, effects pedals, and an LED light.The only reason I looked into getting a voltage regulator was as a precaution. I read that over time, over-voltages and especially under-voltages can cause serious damage to high-end electronics, including amplifiers. I went with the Tripp-Lite LC1800 based on its portable size and positive reviews.I've now been using it for a few weeks. Everything is functioning correctly including the indicator lights on the front panel. However, the unexpected benefits I've noticed have made it one of the best purchases I've made for music.Previously I was powering everything directly from the wall, through basic surge protectors. At the end of the night when I would play louder, high-energy songs (pushing the system hard), I would notice a certain detrimental effect. Sound quality would begin to degrade and the electric guitar tones especially would suffer, becoming muddy in the mix. I'm now of course powering everything on the same circuit, through the Tripp-Lite and have been delighted to find that the sound quality during those "louder" times has really improved. The loops are sounding clearer and stronger and the guitar tones are full and sitting on top of the mix as they should. I never would have expected that my amplifiers were receiving inadequate power and underperforming in the past. I just thought I had reached the limitations of my compact sound system. I thought at first this might just be my perception but others have commented on improved sound.Needless to say, this was a great value for me and I would have happily paid double what I did, knowing the benefits. A couple of suggestions for improvement though:-Add an indicator light to notify the user of a failed internal component. This device is completely mechanical so this will inevitably happen though I'm not sure I'll ever be able to tell when it does.-I understand this was designed for installation and not mobile use but I would appreciate a sturdier construction.Overall, I would suggest a voltage regulator of appropriate capacity to anyone running a live sound system and this particular one seems great so far. Its hard to tell if you're being underpowered until you hear the difference.

I have lost my fair share of electronics over the years due to voltage spikes, lightening etc. It’s 2025 but infrastructure can be a mix of very old and very new. What hurt was a surge or spike that killed my really nice fridge that was just out of warranty. Ugh. Lesson learned! Simple surge protectors are not robust. Fridges today have all sorts of sensors, controllers, lighting, etc plus compressors etc that all get a signal from a computer. My old fridge had a computer too. The last bad storm knocked out power for a couple hrs but not before the lights flickered prob a dozen times. This sweet little box took it all like a champ and our house and fridge powered back up with no issues.

Using this for my tower PC and peripherals. No problems so far, filled the six receptacles and went to work. It's quiet, whether at idle or under load. Heat generated at idle is very low, and does not increase by much when the I run all devices at once - about 900 Watts (7.5A) peak total. Should be more than adequate for a home theater system and smaller appliances.I fired up my inverter generator for testing, the LC1800 had no problems with that power source. When I taxed the jenny to the max, the relay clicked and the "low" light came on. Voltage measured 122 VAC - perfect. This unit appears to perform exactly like the one it replaced (LC2400 - lasted 12 years), so I expect decent protection for many years to come. If not, I'll update.Only thing preventing a 5-star rating is the price. It's not built cheaply, but it's not industrial-grade, either. It's a basic buck/boost AVR, with minimal add-on features. But sometimes simpler is better, from a durability perspective. If it lasts a long time, cost is no issue.

Works great. A TV saver.

Have these one each for tv, all computers, refrigerator, freezer, and stereo. We live in a rural area where power outages occur and it saves for surges when heat pump goes on/off. Electronics like smooth voltages.
