 FEATURES

Protect Your AV Equipment and Prevent the Loss of Home Theater Settings During Blackouts
When a power outage occurs, important home theater settings can be lost, your DVR can miss scheduled recordings, media server files can become corrupted, and delicate projector bulbs can suffer damage. The Monster HTUPS 3700 uninterruptible power supply uses an internal battery to keep electricity flowing to important home theater components for up to 5 hours during an unexpected power blackout. This ensures that your DVR can record scheduled shows, home theater settings are preserved, and also prevents data corruption and costly projector bulb damage.

Exclusive Monster Countdown Technology
The Monster HTUPS 3700 features a digital LED display that displays remaining battery power time in minutes. You can instantly see how much time you have left to safely shut down your system, or how much time you can keep your system running. When power to the HTUPS is cut, the LED screen automatically switches from displaying voltage to the Countdown timer, which will begin counting backwards to zero. The Countdown start time will vary depending on how much battery capacity you have, the initial battery charge level, and the power consumption of equipment connected to the UPS.

Keep Your Valuable Home Theater Equipment Safe From Dangerous Surges and Spikes with Advanced Monster T2™ and Tri-Mode® Power Protection
Monster's exclusive T2 automatically disconnects the PowerCenter itself and your equipment from both live power lines (line and neutral), and reconnects ONLY when power levels are safe. Unlike other surge protectors, T2 will NOT sacrifice itself when a potentially damaging power overload hits, and keeps on protecting with no reduction in performance. For added protection against more powerful overloads, Monster Tri-Mode automatically disconnects your equipment and sounds an alarm.

Clean Power Filtering Rejects Interference to Maximize HD Performance
Your home’s electricity is full of noise and interference caused by all of your appliances and electronics: cell phones, computers, even your lights, all contribute to the problem. This "dirty power" stresses the delicate digital circuitry inside HDTVs and other home theater equipment, reducing their performance and potentially shortening their lives. However, ordinary surge protectors can’t remove the effects of dirty power. The HTUPS 3700 features HD Clean Power Stage 3 filtering that is precision-engineered to remove electrical noise and interference. This protects the delicate circuitry inside your HDTV and other electronics from unnecessary wear. HD Clean Power maximizes your equipment’s lifespan and ensures the best possible picture and sound performance.

Automatic Voltage Regulation Provides Additional Safety
Your home theater electronics are engineered to operate at 120 volts. But common power sags and swells can severely affect the performance and life of your valuable audio and video equipment. When this occurs, Monster automatic voltage regulation keeps the voltage going to your home theater within a safe range. This reduces wear on delicate circuitry, extending the life of your home theater components.

Monster GreenPower™ Outlet Management Stops Stand-by Energy Waste
Monster GreenPower is a revolutionary new way to automatically eliminate energy waste and save money. Simply plug your HDTV or AV receiver into the Monster GreenPower Control outlet. When it’s turned off or goes to sleep, the Monster GreenPower outlets switch off, automatically eliminating energy wasted by your subwoofer, DVD player, and more, when you’re not using them. When your HDTV or AV receiver switches back on, the GreenPower outlets automatically power up again.

Other Monsterous Features Add to Convenience and Functionality
Front-panel USB ports are included for quick charging of cell phones, Mp3 players and more. An AC outlet is also positioned on the front panel for additional convenience. For comprehensive power protection, surge-protected coax, phone, and network connections are provided to guard against surges on cable TV, satellite, antenna, DVR, and Ethernet lines. The HTUPS 3700 is also PLC (power line communication) compatible for creating a high-speed network over existing home wiring. Ordinary surge protectors can block PLC, but the Monster HTUPS 3700 is engineered to allow full-speed PLC network communications. The HTUPS 3700 also has an RS232 communication port that allows control of the PowerCenter through industry-standard control systems.

Our Monsterous Guarantee
We’re Monsterously confident about the HTUPS 3700's combination of backup battery power, advanced power protection, Clean Power filtering, and automatic voltage regulation. That's why we’ll replace up to $500,000 worth of your equipment if it’s damaged by power conditions. With Monster Power® on your side, you’ll have the extra peace of mind that your valuable home theater equipment is covered.

I got this product I live in so. fl. and the power keeps shutting off and on,and keeps messing up my DVR cable box.and they said the battery lasts up to 5 hours.after I received it,the instructions said they did not plug in the battery packs you have to take the front apart,they put star screws,you need a star screwdriver.I took apart the 3 screws the last one was totally stripped and could not get it out [...]So I took apart the top which was all black and then they painted a wiring diagram in white all over the top to show you where all the parts are. Why didnt they put it on the back of the panel so you do not see it.After removing the panel I pried open the front panel enough that i can plug the 2 wires together(that should have been already put together)the inside parts look like they are very heavy duty parts made very well,there is 4 big battery packs inside.I got this this machine because they said the battery lasts for 5 hours, not entirely true.The specifications in manual for battery runtime is @ 50w battery lasts for 320 min. @ 125w lasts 109 min. 450w lasts 34 min.and 600w lasts 20 min.I just have my cable box and a small digital clock on its @36w if I turn on my 52 inch lcd TV its @252w if I put my stereo on also it pulls 360w (not quite 5 hours)When I put on my TV a small fan comes on in the back,it does have a mild hum noise to it(sounds like the fan on my big computer)it does shut off when you shut the TV off.I had a power failure a couple of times it did work very well,it kept my TV,cable box and digital clock on with out reseting anything. I hope this review helps you.

 SAFETY TIPS

Important Monster® Performance and Safety Tips
Listen Responsibly

To avoid hearing damage, make sure that the volume on your music player is turned down before connecting your headphones. After placing headphones in your ears, gradually turn up the volume until you reach a comfortable listening level.

Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB), exposure to any noise at or above 85 dB can cause gradual hearing loss.

Monitor your use; hearing loss is a function of loudness versus time. The louder it is, the less time you can be exposed to it. The softer it is, the more time you can listen to it. Refer to the chart* below.

This decibel (dB) table compares some common sounds and shows how they rank in potential harm to hearing.
SoundNoise Level (dB)Effect
Whisper30Very quiet
Quiet Office50-60Comfortable hearing levels are under 60 dB
Vacuum Cleaner, Hair Dryer70Intrusive; interferes with telephone conversations
Food Blender85-9085 dB is the level at which hearing damage (8 hrs.) begins
Garbage Truck, Cement Mixer100No more than 15 minutes of unprotected exposure recommended for sounds between 90-100 dB
Power Saw, Drill/Jackhammer110Regular exposure to sound over 100 dB of more than 1 minute risks permanent hearing loss
Rock Concerts (varies)110-140Threshold of pain begins around 125dB
"....a typical person can safely listen to an iPod for 4.6 hours per day at 70% volume."
"....knowing the levels one is listening to music at, and for how long is extremely important."
From http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2006/10/19/music-earphones.html
Get the most out of your equipment and enjoy great audio performance even at safe levels.
Our headphones will allow you to hear more details at lower volume levels than ever before.

Use Responsibly

Do not use headphones when it's unsafe to do so - while operating a vehicle, crossing streets, or during any activity or in an environment where your full attention to your surroundings is required.

It's dangerous to drive while wearing headphones, and in many places, illegal because it decreases your chances of hearing life-saving sounds outside of your vehicle, such as another car's horn and emergency vehicle sirens.

Please avoid wearing your headphones while driving. Use one of Monster's FM transmitters to listen to your mobile media devices instead.

Learn how to establish a safe listening level and review other important safety guidelines from the Consumer Electronics Association at www.ce.org and the Deafness Research Foundation at www.drf.org.
