APC Line-R 1200 Voltage Regulating Power Conditioner Review

Here's a review of a newer model American power conversion Auto Transformer based power line voltage stabilizer and power conditioner the 1200 watt LE1200 version. This is a newer model compared to the 600 watt version I reviewed a couple videos ago . .

I have this and has lasted me so many years. I've heard it click so many times. Definitely saved my hardware.

I recently bought one through Amazon. I had to return it because something was loose inside the unit and was clunking around inside of the unit if you tipped it on its side.

Just picked one up for $5 at a thrift store. Going to test it with some inexpensive stuff and watch my kilowatt meter before trying on my PC. But seems to work well so far!

A VR automatic voltage regulator now they have a big version of those at some substations, but not always the best I have to have local avr where I live.

Wonder if you can help me I just bought the Line R 600 when I turned it on the light was green. I unplugged the unit and A/B with my furman power strip then plugged the AR in and it was yellow showing high voltage.
Turned it off and did the A/B again and the light was yellow again. The 3rd time around it was back at green. This happened also jamming at my girlfriends place. Left it at yellow and over night it was back on green. Says its showing the voltage it higher is it keeping the 240 in tact? think when i turn it on and off it should reset it ?? who knows maybe you? thanks!!

Hi Catus Max, my unit shutdown twice yesterday, with all 3 LEDs blinking, first time in many years of using this unit. Not able to find any explanation on what this means on the APC website/documentation. As far as I know there is nothing happen to the power line since my other unit downstairs didn't react. Hope you can help.

Thanks for the info. Would this unit be enough to provide clean and stable power, from a NON INVERTER type generator, to run sensitive electronics?

[elonibaloni]

Would this prevent overloading? So I could plug more things in and it won’t trip the breaker?

[Zack-fusn]

Hello great video! Do you know which is a better unit and what the differences are between this Line-R 1200 or the Tripp Lite LC1200?

[JosephLee-gcbf]

I think you're incorrect @ 1:45 about this model having two boosts/bucks.


This model also seems to have a bug where it'll buck even when input voltage ~120V -- such as upon power-up.

I own one of these. For North America should I set the back switch at 110v or 120v?

[JSMCPN]

The space between those two outlets is intentional, to make room for a variety of "wall warts".

[shaolin]

So it takes a drop to 110 before it kicks in to bring it back to 120?? I was hoping for faster reaction

[joshuaburgos]

Is the building wiring fault light supposed to flash on for a sec when you start the device or is that bad?

[coreybabcock]

I'm getting one from ebay to keep my ac and fridge at proper voltage here in my van I live in when I'm plugged in at places that have low voltage

[johnblas-john]

This product is highly recommended for a side by side refrigerator when there is low voltage and it really stabilizes?

[notforkids]

Does this act as an isolation transformer?

[physiciansassist]

Why does mine stay on yellow on 110 or 120 in the US

[dkat]

Hi great video Question I have to run on a portable generator once in awhile, it outputs 115 or 116 ac volts I want to use this for my desktop computer just for protection. My generator runs pretty steady but need something just in case would this work and my apc battery does not like the generator? Also if the switch on the back is 120 or 110 what would I set it at for my desktop computer ? The computer runs fine at 115 any help would be appreciated thanks!

[basitkhan]

So can ve use it for 550volt of CPU ? and does it work as UPS when main line is off ?
