Why Your Current Computer Protection Is No Longer Enough ?

A common surge protector will stop voltage surges and spikes, but not the violent, catastrophic burst of current from a close lightning strike. Direct lightning current simply is too big to protect with a little electronic device inside a power strip.

  1. Why Your Current Computer Protection Is No Longer Enough ?

  2. Myth No. 1: Surge Protectors Offer Total Protection A common surge protector will stop voltage surges and spikes, but not the violent, catastrophic burst of current from a close lightning strike. Direct lightning current simply is too big to protect with a little electronic device inside a power strip.

  3. Myth No. 2: Surge Protectors Last Forever Over time a surge protector is going to wear out. Some give you a warning when they do. Many don't. If you know you've had a serious electrical event (like lightning blew out a transformer down the street), it's probably worth replacing your surge protector, just in case.

  4. Myth No. 3: Surge Protectors Are Smart Devices Though they offer good protection, surge protectors are reactive devices not always up to the challenge as a last line of defense against power surges. They easily can be defeated when your power hiccups in a storm. They use just-in- time technology that sometimes arrives too late.
