Hi All,

Saw this deal from slickdeals and I have some questions to whether you have used similar type of equipment for backup power to the powerheads (and maybe heater).

I know some folks use Tripplite as their backup power for the reeftank.
Just wanting to check if this equipment can be used for similar purpose. I recalled someone mentioning about different kinds of electrical waves (sine wavers, etc., might have spelled it wrong).

I currently have the battery powered air buble as the backup, but I would love to get something that can at least power the powerhead for more than 4 hours.

Thanks in advance for the advices =D

That is just a power supply that converts your wall 110Vac to 12/5Vdc used for computers. For backup I would suggest getting a tunze 6055 and a 12v car/marine battery.
