Bad USB Port NOT recognized at all
Bought it because the omni 2200W ups I was using would simply shut off completely when the power went out rendering it into a very expensive line conditioner only. This works as as soon as it's plugged in and you "arm" it and it actually stays on when you unplug it without the need for any software or extra cables. Unfortunately, my qnap nas refuses to see it when I plug the usb cable in. Not sure if the ups usb plug is bad but one day I will plug it into my other computers to see if I can get any of them to see it. Deserves like 3 starts really as my other ups was recognized no problem. This one's usb port seems to not work. Unfortunately not worth returning just for that alone.

I have alway been happy with tripp lite equipment
I currently have 6 of these units and use them in my office to back up my photo hard storage and to protect my computer, scanner and printer equipment.
My only concern with the latest purchase of 5 units , all of them when I opened the boxes had the tell tale odor of overheated electronic components. My being an electronic tech thet odor gets your attention quit rapidly.
All of the units are working properly so I am guessing the odor is just a byproduct of manufacturing.
Overall your product is great and in the years I have needed UPS back ups these are the best. All of the other brands I have tried have failed prematurely, suffered massive failure and some have even caught fire during power surges and then would not stand behind their product.
The only product improvement I would recommend is a remote display/controls or a tilting control panel so you don't have to get down on all fours to see the display and operate the controls

Does what it says. Handles as it should. Nice little unit.
This is for a powerful, yet dated, computer build. So much so that the unit that was replaced by this one (from a competitor) would give an alarm if the computer system was under a significant load. What I really like about this model is the readout on the front. Once one knows how, one can make the front readout give all kinds of useful information. Under full load, my computer system pulls ~550 watts. This unit handled it, no problem. One caveat, the plugs are very tightly compacted. As such, if one were to plug in a wall wart style plug, it may take more than one plugs worth of room. Thus blocking other outlets. Easily overcome by looking within your favorite e-retailer for "short extensions". Anything approximately 1 foot should do. Nature of the beast for such a small unit. On that subject, the footprint of this unit is very manageable. imagine a 2 slice toaster's width and height, and 2 toaster lengths. The unit didn't have too much time to settle in before its first test. As I was putting the unit through its paces, as it were, my wife came into the room to see if I had noticed the 10 second brownout that had just happened. As I had recently put the unit on silent, no I did not. Under full load, my monitor didn't even dim which, after some time in service on the competitor's model, it had. I've not had the unit long, but it seems to be working just fine. Time will tell. As such, time is on my side with the extensive insurance policy.

Good unit to keep the powert variations in check
used to modulate and backup the constant irregular power supplied by the local utility (100v to 130v swings minute by minute). Unfortunately, if you connect the USB to a MAC computer, the backup unit immediately sends a power fail flag even if the unit has no power connection between the two

Bought four over past six years and would buy again.
I have purchased four Tripp Lite Smart1500LCDT UPS during the past six years. All are still in service. I find Tripp Lite more dependable, longer lasting and more economical.
The Smart1500LCDT UPS does have issues. It has a terrible odor that lasts about three days after unboxing a new unit. If replacement batteries are very low (maybe < 5%) in charge, it will not charge the batteries. I use another brand UPS to initially charge such rare very-low charge batteries.
I do not use Tripp Lite's PowerAlert software. Instead, I use the native server OS to communicate, shut down and power up as needed. Nothing is really wrong with PowerAlert, it's just unneeded. It's more important to me to have less consumption of server resources.
The Tripp Lite LCD lies (as I find other brands do also). It will report 0 watts usage until you get a load of about 60 watts on the UPS. Then, it typically reports 10% to 60% more watts than my Mastech clamp meter reports. Don't depend upon the LCD for battery condition. I've never seen any LCD indication on a running Smart1500LCDT UPS that lets you know when the batteries can't handle a brown-out.

I'm sticking with Tripp-Lite SMART1500LCDT
I have 5 computer towers along with 5 laptops in my house and used several different brands of UPS's. Not anymore, the day we had a city power outage I had to switch to an emergency generator. All UPS's went into alarm except my Tripp-Lite. The problem was all the other UPS's would not accept the unstable frequency (hertz) from my generator which was not an old generator. I put a frequency meter on the output of the Tripp-Lite and found it to be steady and on frequency and voltage.

Wrote to the technical support, and still waiting the response. I have to buy another Ups, but its gonna be the right brand, not this thing again. Too bad it baned my original message with all the words I really want to say.

An excellent back-up for Emergency Radio Services
I am an amateur radio operator and very active with emergency services.. I use my UPS for ALL of my radio gear and it is excellent. During normal power it maintains an even voltage and filtered, and in times when under emergency power keeps my gear running long enough for me to switch over to generator power. Plenty of both back up and filtered outlets. The LED panel provides ample of information, and the computer interface is very good. The only drawback is there is not way of adding additional batteries for extended time frame.

Does not work with Network UPS Tools (NUT) for Linux
+ Ten outlets, five on the battery side with extra room on two for wall-wart plug packs.
- There is a NUT driver for a similar (older) product, but this newer serial does not work with the USB drivers for the NUT Linux software unfortunately.
- The physical meter for watts consumed does not work when the unit is on AC power. When on AC, the Watts display shows 0.0w, and only runs as expected when you switch to battery backup. This is limiting because it would be nice to know how much energy your devices use normally so you can plan how long your battery life will be. I use a Kill-A-Watt to measure my watt load instead.
+ Price for a 900W UPS is very reasonable. Got mine off the egg, I think for windows users it would be more cost-effective since there is Tripp-Lite software available. Same software is for Fedora or OpenSUSE users, I haven't tried yet on my Fedora machine, maybe I can do a work-around to have it talk to my OpenMediaVault machine.

This is an excellent product which will serve as a continuous power supply to our main computer. We have intermittent interruptions of power and this will alleviate that problem. It should keep the computer up and running for about 20 minutes and if there is a longer interruption, the software will gracefully shutdown the computer.

When the power came back, I saw the unit going back to its normal state and the battery was charging .I like the product so far - What I do not like is a smell that releases.

So far so good, with some tweaks needed.
I use this to provide backup power to my home theater set up, which consist of a home-built computer, a 4TB WD External Drive and a 49" LG TV. We regularly have Zoom meetings using this setup. So having a momentary power outage would be a problem. I also have UPS devices for my router & modem, so the connection stays solid regardless of the electric supply status. I tested the unit by pulling the plug, and everything kept on humming along. When I plugged it back in, the computer automatically started to shut down. Configuring the Tripp-lite software is not entirely intuitive, and I clearly have some adjustments to make. I am greatly relieved the unit alarm can be set to silent!

I use it for power backup to internet connection, computer monitor and tower computer. I bought it because of amount of backup power, surge protection, and LINE CONDITIONING. To date it works.
With the first unit, I experienced a strong acrid smell of warm or hot plastics that persisted for three days and returned it. The replacement still had a slight smell that gradually dissipated over 48 hours.
I would encourage TrippLite to also tell customers that the fan runs only when needed.

3rd TRIPP•LITE I Have Purchased
This is the 3rd TRIP•LITE that I have purchased in the last two years. I am replacing all of my UPS protection in my home on computers, entertainment setups and yes our new Pellet Stove. Must people don't think about a Pellet Stove, but when the power goes out, you need to allow the blowers on the stove to run at least 10 to 15 minutes after you shut down the stove. If not, you can fill a room or house with smoke that should be going out the chimney. No TRIP•LITE, say hello to your smoke detectors, possible smoke damage and the local fire department!

Is not EMI quiet
The product works as advertised, I have no issues with the way it works. However, it does not work well with amateur radio applications especially at 7 MHz and below. I tried to filter the attach the cables using 2.4 Inch #31 ferrite toroids with little or no effect. The battery charging circuit radiates RF noise from within the unit. I contacted support and we determined that it was indeed the battery charging circuit, however the battery charging circuit is always on when there is commercial AC power input. Support did not want to assist in mitigating the noise other than suggesting that I move the unit further away from my antenna. So, when I operate on 80 M and 40 m I will pull the AC plug out so it goes into Power output mode and is much quieter that way.

Working Perfect for My Home Office
I have had a UPS in place at my home-office for numerous years. When it came time to replace the battery, I decided to upgrade and get a UPS that shows input / output voltage (in addition to other readings) as a replacement. I have been very happy with the results and the ease of use. I like that it comes with a solid warranty and is a product that is well respected in the market space.

I enthusiastically recommend this product.
Bought the product for use with my desktop PC and monitors. It works great. I've used Tripp Lite products in the past, and I've always been impressed their quality. Setup was easy, although I thought that it didn't work at first because the LCD was lit up, but there was no power; I soon discovered that I had to turn it on! I like the fact that I can replace the batteries and liked the fact they were partially charged out-of-the-box. It has a USB connection to my computer, which Windows 10 automatically recognized when I plugged it in. I'm running the "local" version of the software, but I found I had to reboot the computer before the software would recognize the UPS. It's unclear whether it performs an auto shutdown when the power fails.

Doesn't work automatically
I have a low load - no more than a few hundred watts. When I pull the power plug the UPS dies, but can be resurrected by pushing the button in front. But that's a problem - I always have to be there when the power goes out.

I would probable buy again.
Triplite Smart Pro LCD 900W UPS: This UPS provides a good amount of power for the price compared to competitors. Additional items that I like include the LCD display, providing a snap shot of information such as output wattage and ability to change out batteries when they die rather than throw entire system away.
The only thing that is a bit irritating is a smell, such as hot components. The unit is warm to the touch, so not sure of issue. I keep a can of air freshener near me and that seems to clear the air for a while. I deducted one star for the smell.

I would buy the product again when it works with the KVM swi
Have used many Tripp-Lite products (UPS and KVM switches) over the years, all worked quite well.
Recently bought the SmartPro UPS (to replace another brand) and am very disappointed that the Power Alert software does not work with my current KVm (not a Tripp-lite brand) and the help desk seemed to write it off as 'hardware incompatibility'. So, I bought a newTripp-Lite KVM (B004-VUA2-K-R) and it does not work either. Same symptoms as before.
Currently, I am challenging the help desk to get the two Tripp-Lite products to work together!

Works with BIOS start after power failure YMMV
Put this on a customer's DVR which is a Windows PC. Was able to set the UPS to shutdown the DVR OS at a certain remaining power level on UPS battery, and then to shut UPS off. Tested by unplugging UPS from wall socket. When UPS is plugged back in, it comes back on and socket on UPS is online, having BIOS DVR/PC set to come on after power restored from power failure has DVR computer power back on. Even if you shut down the OS on Windows DVR programmatically, the DVR BIOS can tell when the power to DVR's power supply is cycled. In other words I can confirm setting DVR/PC BIOS to come back on still allows you to shut down from PC from the OS. It will stay off until the power to the power supply is cycled (or start button pressed). This is important in my case because the customer's PC has a locked case with the start button inside the locked case door. This was tested with a Windows 10 PC (ASUS MB), and the DVR which is a Windows 8 PC (Gigabyte MB) YMMV.

Too Soon For Me to Tell If This Product is Reliable
I purchased this UPS from Tripp-Lite to replace an old Aye Pee Sea Smart UPS 650 V/S unit that was trashing its battery - basically overcharging it. The battery would last a little over two years and then it would be dead. In fact, I had to bend and distort the metal framework around the battery compartment to get the battery out, as it was swollen so much that there was no other way to get it out! Now, the load that it was supporting is small, only an iMac. So the SmartPro LCD 1500 VA replacement is a bit of overkill. In fact, I thought the unit was faulty because it displayed a load of 0.0% and 0.0 Watts! After plugging in a 60 Watt lamp, it now shows 11% and 99 Watts.
The only downside that I find with this unit is its smell. Even when I first opened the box, I could smell an off-gassing, kind of sulfurous, "electronic" smell. I suspect it comes from some kind of RTV component glue in its electronics. I powered the unit up anyway, tested it, and it seems to work - it gives me 77 minutes of battery support time. But the smell, although diminished, is still being emitted after almost two weeks running.
I did want to use Power Alert Local Software to initiate an auto shutdown of my iMac, and this was the other reason I bought a Tripp-Lite, and not another brand (I could not find any other that had iOS-compatible software). Notwithstanding, Tripp-Lite's info doesn't specifically say it will work with an iOS-based system; although, it does say it is compatible with a Linix-based system (on which iOS is built). But the installation is complicated, and not for a novice to attempt. Time will tell if the UPS treats its batteries with respect, and they last for more than a couple of years.

Power To The People
I use this UPS and its PowerAlert software to backup the home computer operation. It couldn't be easier to set up. The manual is well written and the tech support is timely; both a plus. Being a new installation I have had no occasion to see the UPS perform under power loss conditions other than what I could do manually to test the system. There have been a few glitches in the power line with no noticeable affects at the output.
I chose the system to deliberately be more than what I need, i.e., 900 watt source to power a nominal 140 watt computer system. Doing this gives approximately 45 minutes of operation during a power outage instead of the normal 3-4 minutes at full power usage.
The management software is easy enough to use, and written in Java. It might be improved if something like an HTML 5 webpage were used instead.

Almost perfect
I have purchased many Tripp Lite products in the past and they have always been very high quality and to date not a single one has failed or broken. The same can be said for this UPS. it is extremely well built, super easy to setup and while large isn't too bad (and to be expected as I got a larger battery capacity model). I didn't bother installing their software and I prefer to just have Windows Power Management handle it.
All this though I had to take 1 star off as I have found a big over site in the product, that very well might not be an issue for you. The LCD's backlight cannot be turned off. I contacted Tripplite's support to see if there was a way and they said that there was not. I have mine in a bedroom so at night it is REALLY bright and it's blue light so for me disturbs my sleep. I've resolved it by covering it with a piece of paper, but really this should have been an obvious feature that should have been there as it not only is annoying and bright, but also is a waste of power to be on all the time.
The unit is solid and I have zero doubt though that it will last and be reliable for years to come based off my experience with their other products.

I would buy this product again
I actually bought this several years ago because of frequent brown outs in our area at the time. I only use 5 of the outlets and have had no real issues with it. I recently moved where it is at and went to plug something else in and found that the other 5 outlets (on the battery backup side) were not working. I was not sure if there was a problem so I contacted tech support. After a couple emails back and forth I found out it was as simple as pressing the one button on it. Since I have not used that side I never realized I had not put it online. In the end this unit still works great and all my devices have worked fine since I started using it.

Another Fine Tripp Lite UPS Product!
I purchased this UPS to replace another brand UPS that had failed. After looking at different brands and reviews as well as my personal experience I decided to go with Tripp Lite for a new UPS. I live in an area where we have some pretty severe storms in the summer, so I am in need of a good UPS with voltage regulation. So far it has been working flawlessly. I like its display and the information that is available on it and that it is quiet.

Admittedly I am not well versed in UPS's but live in an area that has pretty unpredictable power.

It has been trouble free so far and I am not expecting that to change.

I purchased a new, powerful gaming PC. My old/newer UPS went crazy! It could not handle the power load.
My new SmartPro hardly flinches, even though I have the PC, monitor, external drives and printer connected to it.
I love having the LED for a quick look but also the detail software for a closer look at what is going on with the power in my home.
it was definitely worth the purchase.

I have bought a lot of surge UPS, now I only buy Tripplite
The Tripplite's last me longer in my hot/cold environment (with 1 or 2 battery changes) while other off brands are 1/3 of the time and the big name brand is 1/2 of the Tripplite life. I also find Tripplite quotes and lives up to a much faster response time. Other UPS brands leave my computers rebooting after a power loss. The whole reason I have UPS is to prevent computer shut downs/reboots, so no wonder I buy Tripplite.

I own a number of these; my office, audio equipm. & dev lab
For over 20 years, I've had 3 Tripp Lite stand alone UPS's protecting my 3 office workstations, 1 protecting home stereo equipment and 2 Tripp Lite's protecting my dev lab equipment. As an electrical engineering consultant, I've recommended/installed various models for my clients. Everyone has been happy. Some UPS vendors overcharge their batteries for more impressive 'specs' but end up shortened battery life & failing when you need your UPS most. I've been thru/seen it all; never been disappointed with Tripp Lite's. Three (3) of my "OMNI" & "SMART" series are online for 5+ years-- with same set of batteries!--and all testing good! How do they do it ??!?

Great Value
The price was right. Item arrived in a fraction of the estimated time. Installation was simple and easy. Product registration was easy. The unit reports that there will be plenty of available runtime to safely shut down in case of a power failure. I haven't given it 5 stars because I just installed it so I haven't witnessed its performance and it doesn't come with Apple Mac compatible software. Although I'm probably better off sticking with the power management software included with the Mac OS.

I'm using this to back up my network hardware: DSL modem, switches, wifi router, etc. It works great and gives me plenty of run time. I had a power outage the day I plugged it in and set it up. It ran for an hour and a half or so before exhausted (about what I would have guessed for the load). and then shut down (the outtage was more than 24 hours). When the power came back on it came up on its own and everything started back up and the batteries were charged up quickly. I really like the display as it is helpful to see the loading and predicted run time. I'm very happy with it.

Then and Now - Yes
When I was a Data Account Executive with AT&T I highly recommended my clients to utilize Tripp-Lite for backup requirements. I continue to recommend Tripp-Lite as a Realtor. I sell homes to medium to high end clients and they all have expensive equipent that needs protecting. I use the 1300VA to protect my in-home server, NAS, router and cable modem. I cannnot afford problems with my Internet service since it supplies all my data and voice services. I highly recommend this product and all Tripp-Lite equipment. Great products!

Powerful, easy to monitor
This product gives me very nice backup power for a high-end PC and several gaming consoles and I haven't had any issues so far. I ran into some trouble in the past with monitoring the load and battery life on backup devices, and with this model it's very easy to notice these details. The only downside for me is that the fan can be a bit noisy, especially at night.

I prefer your earlier model that was thinner
Your earlier model stood up and down and was much thinner versus the large wide and flat build of this model. It makes it harder to fit into tight computer desk space.

Tripp Lite Saves 3D Printers
We are a business incubator that uses 3D software and three 3D Printers to help entrepreneurs develop prototypes of their ideas and concepts.
Often all three printers are running at the same time and all are plugged into our Tripp-Lite Model 1500LCDT unit. We have had a number of storms recently in Florida and power surges and outages have occurred in the past week. Every time this happened the Tripp-Lite performed flawlessly and kept our expensive 3D Printers from being fried.

Robust and reliable
I have been using several brands and units through the last fifteen years at my home as well as my business place. Situated in an area where frequent natural lightning, local browning or plain lack of electricity at the most unexpected time forced me to invested in those extra units. Where I'm using this unit for, this is the third unit I'm installing in 7 years. I had other brands before this Tripp Lite. They died too early to my taste.
I've been using Tripp Lite units in the four years at other stations and they survive better the frequent outage in my area. Today I opted again for this specific unit to keep my office networking devices on when we expect them to be on.

My First and LAST Tripp Lite!
My first and last Tripp Lite product. I purchased this to replace another brand of UPS because of the lower cost. Unpacked and plugged it up to find that it was bad. .. Alarming overload with nothing plugged into it. Now Tripp Lite is giving me the runaround about replacing it or giving me a refund. I'M DONE WITH TRIPP LITE!!! Once again you may paid a little more for quality but it pays off in the longrun. I will return to purchasing APC products, they will stand behind their products without problems such as this.

Hardware OK at best
I purchased 5 of these for my company. One came out of the box with the casing not properly installed. Tripp-Lite's Power Alert Software is a joke. It looks like something written in the 1970s. Out of 5 computers in works on one and not on the other four. Product service is useless.
The power button is very poorly designed. It protrudes from the case and is right where your hand would normally go if you wanted to pick it up. Also if ANYTHING brushes against it, (foot, leg, vacuum, it turns the power off to the computer.

This is a great product for handling five out of nine possible power problems; no power, sags, surges, line noise and brownouts. It's a very wise investment to protect your power sensitive home or office equipment. Batteries for me have lasted 4 to 4 1/2 years. They are easily replaceable.

Worked flawlessly with first outage
I am currently using this UPS to back up my gateway, router and VOIP box. Within two weeks of installation, I had an electric outage and it performed flawlessly. I love that it has 8 outlets (4 UPS protected). All outlets are too close together to support power transformer plugs so one must purchase short extension cords if you needed to plug in one of them. That is a minor inconvenience as the box must be bigger to spread outlets apart or fewer can be provided.

Work from home; using this as the UPS for my desktop and two monitors, while another UPS powers my router, modem and landline. Had it since 2017, changed the batteries twice, never a problem. With the computer and one monitor tied in, I can nurse the battery to 90-120 minutes when the power goes out -- 60 minutes with the desktop and both monitors.
Downside is the Poweralert software doesn't always show the UPS as active and cuts out on occasion for no reason.

Worse than no UPS
Unit turns off immediately during brownout / outage, and when power is restored it will not go back online until a person is sent out to manually press the power button. Was conned into buying new batteries for it by tech support, and then told there's nothing I can do since that didn't fix the issue.

Very good UPS
I use this UPS for my main computer and it seems to handle the load very well. The company's support is excellent also.

Nice product
I like the nice and clean look to it. Just comforting know it's there. Can't give a 5 because there is always room for improvement.

Reliability is the name of the game.
I have a couple of these devices, one to maintain communications/internet and one separate for security. The combination of both have resulted excellent as have not lost either of services when grid power is lost. The oldest is about 1 year old and the recent is 2 months old.

I would get again
Works as expected Replaced an older unit.
So easy even a salesman could put it in.
More words required for the review.
Packaged nicely but not too much excess packaging. Now if the sn could be a barcode it would make registration easier.

Poor follow up and handling
There are good and bad points. Reaching someone to help me in the correct department took me through to SIX PEOPLE before I actually ended up in the appropriate department. That denotes a lack of hierarchy organization, however the people who spoke with me, unlike most call centers, were all doing their best to get me on the right path and did not sound or act like mindless automatons. The other issue is the courier they chose is 1) has had my package of replacement batteries sitting in some holding state for the last 8 days for some unknown reason,
2) does not list any manner of contacting them to find out why, 3) I found their number on a Google search and when calling them, I get 20 minutes of hold music and then systematically get disconnected; no, not by accident. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME AT 20 MINUTES!!! 4) After 3 attempts i finally get someone who knows nothing and tells me someone will call me back in 30 minutes to let me know why.
18 hours later I am still waiting.
5) I email Tripp lite support 3 times and get no answers
