Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)For those of you lucky enough to avoid costly damage from lightning or voltage spikes, the clock is ticking. Eventually, your luck will run out unless you protect yourself with an APC.
Safe & Secure:
I've used APC products for years on all my computers and audio/video equipment. I feel safe & secure and don't worry whenever thunderstorms are present. I also have no worries about the wacko electrical wiring of this older house. I have never experienced any failures on any equipment or devices - except for my garage door opener.
Consider this:
You cannot always go around unplugging everything you care about when storms appear. Besides, this is only half the battle. You may not realize that typical household electrical current slowly deteriorates your electronics. A good example to prove this point: the lights dim when you power on a space heater. That is a power spike which is a jolt to anything plugged in nearby. Spikes damage circuit boards. Think of it as "little electrical jabs".
The Cost:
This APC unit is inexpensive yet includes guaranteed protection up to $75,000 - even against lightning!
Replacement cost of a circuit board for your new washing machine: around $300 plus labor
Replacement cost of a garage door opener: over $100 plus labor
Replacement cost of your new HDTV or your computer: ??? you know what you paid
The Product:
1. protects your phone line
2. protects your cable TV, Dish, or off-air antenna line
3. has 8 outlets, including 4 spaced for those huge block transformer plugs
4. includes a $75,000 equipment protection guarantee (must register the product)
5. protects against lightning strikes (most brands do not)
6. design is sleek and slim with a pivoting plug
Summary:
Okay, I may sound like a salesman for APC. I am not. Did I go overboard with my review? I don't think so. You see, I learned my lesson once - lost my garage door opener to lightning. The thought never occurred to me to protect my detached garage. With that lost money, I could have bought 6 surge protectors.
Make sure you register your APC to validate the excellent warranty.
All brands are NOT the same. Google "APC" and learn for yourself.
Be well,
Jeff
