*In Campaign, you should destroy activated trip mines as you leave an area, as marines are scripted to run certain paths, and if an un-detonated trip mine is in the way, they may simply walk over it, killing as many as three or four of them.

*When fleeing an enemy vehicle, it may be wise to deploy a Trip Mine in its path. Such a move may kill the occupants of the vehicle, though it also poses a risk to the player trying to flee.

*Even though it's said that this is [[UNSC]] equipment, Jump Pack Brutes always have one ready to use and no Marine or [[ODST]] has been seen holding one, though there are several Mines in a Marine base on Tsavo Highway.

*It was hypothesized that the Trip Mine may be the book-aforementioned [[Lotus Anti Tank Mine]] or they may be both made by the same manufacturer. However, it is unlikely the Trip Mine is the Lotus Anti-Tank Mine, because a [[Scorpion Tank]] can easily drive over a Trip Mine and survive the explosion. It is possible that the Trip Mine is the [[Antlion Anti-Personnel Mine]] due to its similar operation.

*In the ''[[Halo 3 Beta]]'', deployed Trip Mines could stick to the bottom of a motionless vehicle. If the vehicle then moves, the Trip Mine explodes, killing all players inside with normal shields.
