When my heater or dishwasher first kicks on, my big screen TV shuts off (then comes back on seconds later). Will the 650VA LCD UPS fix this? I live in an old house (1952).

No, the TV will still "flicker" when the AC does a "Brown-Out". You need to get an APC unit that provides "Brown-Out" protection.What these "Brown-Out" units do is convert the power to DC and Back to AC with a Battery floating all of the time. The output will then be the exact correct values.This UNIT will "help" and may be better then "nothing". But only if the TV can provide some internal "brown-out" coverage internally.

For this specific issue, it would be best to have a line interactive UPS system with (AVR) automatic voltage regulation. This type of UPS provides line conditioning and will help to counteract against sags in power caused by your large applicances. CyberPower has many different series of UPS systems with AVR. The unit that is closest in size to this model would be the CP825AVRLCD.

yup i have the same issue apparently its cause of the tv drawing lot of power dur to its fast start up . try plugging it in to the wall direcly ie with no other devices plugged in. i also notice that it only happenes if i have had the tv off for a while eg over nigt and not if it turn it off wait a few mins and turn it on so it must be some thing with the power. i would still call samsung and see whats up.

Could be a bad main board. Mine went out a year-and-a-half or so ago. It cost about $350 to replace it through a local repair company. Not sure if it is worth it though. I bought a new tv about 6 months ago and it was $650. You may want to check around.

It has to be on both legs of the power. Try locating the display as close to the unit as possible. Turning the power off to the unit on the line will reset it, I believe.

Hi.. I do not have this issue. My TV powers up to the TV picture. I am guessing it's in the start up settings but have not had to deal with it. I responded so you would know that you can change it. this is an awesome TV. Everyone who comes over comments on how great the picture is, so you made a great choice

So I used this ballast and then replaced all cooling fans...tv would still shutdown due to heat on occasion...really frustrating...never had a problem turning it on...moved the TV to another room...and the problems have ceased...weird...

Yes it does. Might I suggest you give it a blast of canned air and see if during transit it picked up some trash inside that's causing the problem.also unplug the TV and wait a couple of minutes and plug it back in to reset the unit. Hope this helps.

Although I do not know the answer to your question what I do know is that when it cuts out for HIGH voltage, it sounds an audible signal and remains shut off until it is manually reset. I had that problem with a remote vacation cabin setup when the solar charge controller would automatically equalize the batteries which requires a high voltage (especially in winter and cold battery temps). I would return to the cabin weeks later to find the inverter making its alarm sound but turned off due to high voltage weeks before, and of course the refrigerator and everything else in the cabin would be off. So my impression is that the inverter requires manual resets but I can only answer from the viewpoint of having had an over-voltage cutoff but never had a low voltage cutoff. Sorry I can't specifically answer the question.

This tv goes to a screen saver after so many minutes so I have experienced no such problems. One can also set the tv to shut off after a certain amount if inactivity. I love this tv!

Hi Daniel, mine turns the other outlets off several minutes after going to standbyWeather yours goes off depends on the change in on/STBY current draw.-The big screen TV also turns the other outlets off several minutes after STBY(RED Led light on TV front panel still on)

First of all its going to run really hot. It's not going to give you a constant 120 volts maybe 117 but thats still safe for you eletronics. That's not a quick fix using the opti ups I woud contact the power company and have them come out and check it out the opti is used on old homes when there is a drop in voltage for a moment or to. Like when the ac unit kicks on. Sounds like you have a bad transformer on the electric pole. Ifs that the case they should replace it.

Man, I wish I could help. I know mine automatically turns off when I turn off my LED TV so they are somehow synced already. I never did anything special when I set it up. I have a Samsung TV. I don't know if that makes any difference at all. I'm also using all HDMI. I'm thinking maybe it's the configuration of how your system is set up? Please do update when you figure it out as I'm getting ready to purchase a new TV to hook up with mine and I might just have the same trouble.

nope, I jus have it plugged into a power strip and I just turn it on when I start watchin' movies. And I turn it off like 15mins later after I turn off system to get rid of left over heat works perfect.....

Is there a way to incease the time the pop screen for input stays on . after turning the tv it defults to another place where i need . It used to stay where i had it last i get blinking red standbye Lite sony KDL46VL150

No I don't believe it will because a UPS is DC power inverted to AC, therefore the AC signal from the panel transmitter will be blocked. On second thought if you lose power from the utility company, then the TED transmitter in your electrical panel won't have any power so it can't function anyway, so it wouldn't matter if a ups would or would not work . You won't lose any data in your display unit, as soon as power is restored, it will start functioning again as if nothing happened.

TV should not be hot. Most likely the cause was a dirty signal coming from Best Buy's HD signal to the TV. Smaller chance is that the peice was going bad. Either way, the odds say this won't happen to you. The 8000 series is one of the best / most efficient TVs out there and normally runs quite cool.

Hi, best to open up the TV first and take a look at the boards. Look for failed capacitors. If you would like to send us a photo of the board, we will be happy to examine it and render an opinion as to the chances of a successful repair. It's really hard to tell how the repair will go without looking at the boards first. Hope this helps a little.
