Features:
Four levels of voltage correction to control line voltages and protect equipment
Voltages from 87 to 140 volts are automatically corrected back to 120 volts AC
Advanced Isobar surge and noise suppression circuitry
Product DescriptionTripp Lite's LC 1800 Line Conditioner provides automatic voltage regulation for computers, copiers, laser printers, fax machines and other sensitive electronic equipment. 1,800 watts of voltage regulation correct brownouts and overvoltages (87 to 140 volts) back to computer-grade 120 volt AC. The unit has 6 outlets, 6-ft. cord, diagnostic LEDs, and built-in surge and noise suppression. Isolated filter banks stop interference between connected equipment.

Average Rating:
Rating: - Works like a charm
I get a constant supply of power now to my connected equipment, even when the power "flickers". If you experience brief "flickering" of your power due to your household AC unit or just the power company, you are going to want this.
Rating: - Beware of annoying hum
I assume this model does the job it is intended to do, but when I hooked it up to my desktop computer and peripherals, I found it also emits a hum that is annoying (to me, at any rate) and is louder than the fan noise from my computer. I was informed by a company rep that this hum is normal. It's unacceptable to me, so I returned the unit.
Rating: - Must have for A/V System
This is both an oft-forgotten and a must have item for A/V. I just don't understand people purchasing multi-thousand-dollar electronics gizmos to blindly plug them into a wall socket. The incoming voltage is noisy and does fluctuate from time to time. Protect your equipment with this unit.
Rating: - One caveat
We have used LC-1800s since the early 1990's and have only one complaint: if one of the mechanical relays that maintain the 110-120 VAC output fails, the associated indicator light on the front of the unit will still function as usual, and the user will thus not be aware of the failure. The result is that the equipment connected to the LC-1800 will be subjected to brown-out or over-voltage conditions. The only way we have found to monitor the proper operation of the relays is to periodically plug ... Read More
Rating: - Unexplained Computer Problems Disappear
Clean, regulated power is important for a computers, stereos, and high end video equipment. Surge protectors and UPS units do not clean the power well, they simply clip surges and spikes. High end surge protectors units filter some harmonics (harmonics are usually introduced by motors, furnaces, Air Conditioners, freezers, etc).
A Line Conditioner corrects for high and low voltage, and cleans the voltage.
