Question 1

Can the built in audible alarm be easily disabled?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it can! I bought one of these and found the instructions in one of the reviews does work. Reposted here for your convenience... "Use the included strange USB thing to hook it up to your computer, then use the free PowerAlert software from Tripp Lite's website. Switch the software into Business mode, then go over to the Action section. In the list of actions is "Set Audible Alarm". Set the value to 1 (even if it's already 1, overwrite it), then execute the command. After a second or two, the program will unfreeze, and it will be completely silent when it loses power from then on!"

Question 2

the beeping during power fail is  intolerable.  Is there a way to turn it off or do I have a defective unit or what.

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, I haven't found any way of turning it off. I have three of them and they drive me crazy. I used to work for AT&T as a 411 operator and they had these on each of the work stations so that we can keep answering calls even if the power went out. They beeped also. Imagine 40 stations beeping at the same time. It very seldom happened because they had back-up generators, but for the few seconds until they kicked in, well....Sorry, I guess you're stuck with it.

Question 3

Is the battery user replaceable?

Accepted Answer

Purchased August 2021. The UPS350 has a battery access cover. Inside is a Leoch DJW12-2.8 sealed lead-acid battery - 12VDC, 2.8 amp-hour capacity. I did not try to remove it but it looks like it will slide out and is connected with spade connectors.

Question 4

can I use this with a pellet stove? I would like to hook this to the generator and the pellet stove to this. Would this unit clean up the signal?

Accepted Answer

It would seem like it would protect the pellet stove from line noise. This in in the description for this product.
