NOTES:
1) Select and size batteries based on your total expected load and run time. Use one of the following two plots. Read the number of Tripp Lite #98-121 gel cell batteries from the left plot, or if you plan on using other batteries read the required amp-hours from the right plot.

We DO NOT recommend using standard vehicle starting batteries as these will wear out after only a small number of discharges. Use only "deep cycle", marine or golf cart batteries.
3) This unit is not large enough to power most sump pumps. Use one of our larger APS units such as the APS2012 or APS2424. If you have a high efficiency sump pump motor the APS1024 may also have sufficient capacity. Click here for some high efficiency sump pumps. If interested in these request a quote by e-mail.
