Know your gear
The APS1250 1250W PowerVerter APS 12V DC 120V AC Inverter/Charger is a reliable power source for a wide variety of equipment ranging from power tools and pumps to portable lighting and computer equipment in heavy-load conditions. With no fumes, fuel or excess noise, it's an excellent alternative to generator power. The DC-to-AC inverter features an automatic line-to-battery transfer switch and integrated charging system that allow it to work as a vehicle inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. It delivers 1250W of continuous power, 1875W up to one hour, or 2500W of peak power up to 10 seconds during equipment startup or cycling. An automatic overload detector, cooling fan and resettable AC circuit breakers protect the unit from damage. Designed for easy installation in RVs, over-the-road trucks, fleet vehicles and emergency vehicles, the APS1250 converts stored power from any 12V battery or automotive DC source to safe, stable, computer-grade AC power and sends it to two NEMA 5-15R outlets for unlimited runtime. When powered by an external 120V AC source, the unit keeps the user-supplied battery charged via a three-stage 30A charging system while simultaneously delivering AC power to connected equipment. When used as a UPS, the APS1250 responds to blackouts and brownouts with an automatic, instantaneous transfer to battery-derived AC output. LEDs on the unit indicate load level, battery charge level, shutdown status and system fault status.

I WOULD PURCHASE AGAIN.
I have ten of these units in service. I just had to replace one after 13 years of use five days a week.
Would differently purchase again.

Flawless Operation
I use my APS 1250 as a sump pump back-up. I use it with a group 31 deep cycle battery and it works GREAT. It has been in use now for about 2 years. I unplug it about every 6 months to keep the battery active. It last me about 5 hours which is more than enough time for the power to come back online. Great Product Recomended

Works great
Primary use is to power sump pump during power outages. I've also ran a small heater, various power tools, and a large dehumidifier without a problem. Keeps two very large deep cycle batteries charged and maintained easily.

High value, well built and all the important features
I checked out a number of these inverters with charger / transfer facilities for a 9 amp pump back up. The Trip Lite is feature rich, sturdy in construction and very competively priced. Good manual, no surprises, straight forward hook up and initiation. I appreciate that the charger can be switched between gel type and regular - many don't and many people don't know that an improper charge / maintainer cycle profile shortens battery life, sometimes a lot. Only been in service several weeks so the one unknown is long term durability but it runs cool and the fan is larger than most and excess heat in the electronics is a major reason for short life...so I am optimistic.

That is why I bought the 1250W model.
Did not use the product yet. Used the 750W model in the past with outstanding results. Expecting the same with the 1250W.

Nice solution for Pellet stove backup power.
I purchased this product to serve as a backup power source for my pellet stove. The power at my home is very unreliable and I;m not always here to start the generator when power goes out. This unit has performed flawlessly for me. It keeps the battery, a Vmaxtanks VMAX SLR155 AGM, charged perfectly. I gave the product 4 out of 5 stars as I wish it had one more feature which would be to a line conditioning feature when in AC-mode. Combining the features of this inverter and tripp-lite's LC2400 would make for an awesome combination for folks with the need for an inverter because of unreliable grid power.. Hey maybe this could be a new product idea! Over all I highly recommend this inverter product and the Tripp-lite company.

Seems well made, needs a more complete manual.
Using it as a sump pump backup, charging two marine batteries and running a 1/3 HP Liberty pump. Installation was easy, although a note specifying tool size would have helped. And...the manual is very little help in deciding how to set the switches. Luckily your help desk was professional and knew the answer immediately.

Great so far. Sump pump backup
Bought to connect to a 12v battery to power my sump pump. Tested and works as I want. So far I no reason to use but ready for the season as prior year had heavy rain and no power - neighbors basement flooded, something I want avoid. Hoping this works. I got this as was recommended in searches with auto transfer in the event I am not home or when sleeping so i don't have to switch over the power from the house to battery.

The device has been working properly since it was installed. I tested it and it appears to do what it said it would do! That's all I was really after.

Excellent Product
I am using this inverter for back-up on my 1/4 HP submersible sump pump in case of a power outage. TrippLite has a great working WhitePaper that showed me all the steps and sizing. I did not see the need for the ground fault version as my installation is high and dry.
My plumber told me that 12 volt stand alone sump pumps were basically bilge pumps from a boat and not at all reliable. Tripp Lite had the solution.

Great for boondocking with my Gnome Home!
I have it installed in a teardrop trailer. It allows me to boondock a few days without travelling or using electricity to recharge. I love it!
