Pros & Cons
Pros
Tripp lite has a handy lcd display that will give you incoming and outgoing voltage and power conditions along with battery life percentage. The lcd display is very nice to have. It's much better than having to interpret blinks and beeps when the powe... Read More
Tripp-lite has 6 battery backup outlets and 6 surge protection only outlets. It also has surge protection outlets for phone line and ethernet connections along with 2 usb charging ports.
Tripp lite is one of the 2 major brands most of us will recognize for ups and surge suppression devices. The apc looks easier to service, and most importantly, the apc actually worked.
Tripp lite is a good starter/low end model for non mission-critical applications. All in all, fairly simple and straightforward. I'm pleased with it's performance.
Cons
The tripp-lite beeps incessantly when something is wrong. It's difficult to remove plugs from the outlets. Battery only has 3 plugs that are actually for powering items. The unit occasionally shuts itself off for no reason.
Eco or not - that pretty much defeats the purpose of a ups unless you know for sure that your power draw will never be below the minimums. The apc power software is far superior. But apc build and product quality is slightly less than tripplite.
Highlights
Quality
This is a solid product, works as advertised, and is reasonably priced, so there's no reason to deduct any stars.
Not only does this product work as intended but this actually generates pure sine wave output!
But apc build and product quality is slightly less than tripplite.
After 10 minutes, i took some screenshots of the tripp-lite's optional windows software which communicates with the ups via a usb cable.
Packaging/appearance
It comes ready to use right out of the box.
The tripp-lite linux application would not install on the qnap, which requires a qpkg file format.
The only thing we won't use is the ability to have a master shut off the rest.
Everything else is plugged into the the surge protect only outlets.
Competitiveness
I bought this for a synology nas without checking the compatibility list first.
I had used the apc with my qnap nas.
