SmartPro LCD UPS for Desktop Systems

The Tripp Lite SMART1300LCDT is a 1300 VA line-interactive tower UPS delivering 720 watts of battery-backed power. It suits home offices, media centres and entry-level workstations that need continuous operation through short outages and automatic voltage regulation.

Eight Outlets Split Between Battery and Surge

Four NEMA 5-15R outlets provide full battery backup plus surge suppression for critical devices, while four additional outlets supply surge-only protection for peripherals. A 650 joule rating guards connected equipment, and coax plus RJ45 pass-through jacks protect cable, DSL and Ethernet lines from transient spikes.

Tower Form Factor with USB Monitoring

The unit sits upright on a desk or floor and recharges from 10 % to 90 % in under 6.3 hours using two user-replaceable RBC51 batteries. A front-panel LCD reports real-time status, while the HID-enabled USB port allows automatic unattended shutdown via the downloadable PowerAlert software; audible alarms warn of power-failure and low-battery conditions.

Questions about this item

How often will the RBC51 batteries need to be replaced?

The unit uses two user-replaceable RBC51 batteries; typical service life is three to five years, after which both should be swapped together to maintain the 10-minute half-load runtime.

What load limit is reached first when the UPS runs continuously?

The 720-watt output ceiling is the first hard limit; exceeding it will trigger overload protection even though the VA rating is 1300.

How much heat and noise does the tower produce during all-day operation?

Normal operation is quiet with only a low fan hum; sustained load may raise chassis temperature but the line-interactive design keeps audible noise minimal.
