I have a little 3000 Watt generator with two 20 amp outputs and would like to clean up the output from one so the UPS can work. Would the work?

I use mine with a generator to clean up the power for a refrigerator that has electronics on board. I only use the generator for power outages. But to answer your question I believe it will protect whatever you want to receive power from your generator. Just make sure the wattage of the line conditioner exceeds what your going to plug into it.

It's a best practice not to use the LC1200 as well as any of the other line conditioners in our offering with a generator. We do however have true online UPS systems in our offering that are considered generator friendly. For assistance in sizing out a UPS system to use in conjunction with your generator, please reach out to our presales applications team at 773-869-1773 or via email at presaleshelp@tripplite.com.

No, or at least not well. This unit would be massively underpowered. find out how many watts your old power supply was running. then add a minimum of 200 more. look for bronze, silver or gold in the title. take a hard earned lesson from me and don't cheap out on your power supply.

This unit is only rated for 900 Watts so it you have your computer maxed out no it will not work; also even if your computer is only running at about 75% you will have no available power from the UPS for peripheral items. The power cord is 3 conductor 16 gauge with a standard 15 amp NEMA plug. I would suggest you use at least a 2000 VA UPS and really you probably need something even bigger if you want to have any amount of run time after a power failure.

i want to us this inverter for camping...to power up my small home heater or electric blanket..will this inverter work

I used a regular outlet on a 20 amp braker and it worked fine, didn't trip once. I don't know about using a generator but I think that would work also

Absolutely. I use this for a large 420W stereo and a vacuum cleaner. Gets pretty warm using both for 30+ minutes but never shuts off. Great small inverter for the money.

It does not need additional supply, however, I would buy cheap UPS (from Costco) so that it can stay up for for few minutes.I would check the Amp requirement on your circuit as they do consume a bit more power.I am running 4 of them at my shop.Thanks

This could be done,but unless you are a licensed electrician, I wouldn't try it. The job would involve separating these circuits at your breaker box and rewiring to a separate switch box. 30 amps would not handle all those appliances. This breaker was probably added to the generator to supply enough power to operate an RV.

Sorry can't help you. I researched this generator for possible use for emergency backup power for my house. I found little info on the web or no assistance from the company (which was hard to locate) on particulars for this item. As a result I didn't purchase. It didn't look like a quality piece of equipment. Good luck with your unit.

I recommend you stick with same output V as the original equipment. I don't know what you are powering up, but some circuit board items might not be able to handle the added volts.

No. This is a surge protector, not a Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS). You would need a UPS unit. TRIPP-LITE offers great options for those also.

Sorry, the amperage is too high for your needs. It could overheat what you are powering.

Buy a UPS of the type you use on your computer. All functions are there. Size it to how long a power failure you want to ride through.

Yes it will work. The "20 Amp" rating refers to the amperage produced by the solar panels, so if the current produced by your panels at peak efficiency is below 20 amps (and off the top of my head, it is) you will be fine. Remember to hook this up in the EXACT order as the instructions say or else it ill blow a fuse. Good luck!

You can use this for any electronics as long as the power requirements of the device(s) you hook up are lower than the power the UPS is rated to provide. Also keep in mind that UPSs in general don't provide much backup power time if you're close to the limit of what the power the UPS can provide. I believe this UPS provides up to 255 watts of power. You should be able to look at the specs for your TV and satellite receiver to see how much power they consume to see if you can use this UPS or need a bigger one.

It all depends on what the running wattage of the two items are can you find that? if it's less than the generator than yes.
