What are some examples of well proven solutions that are already installed at every house, are free, and cover both electrical and telco lines? You've mentioned them several times, so I think it's time to let us (me, anyway) know what they are so I can take advantage. Well proven solution costs less than what was paid for a typical power strip protector. You say some of the well proven solutions are free, so yeah, free is less than not free. Nobody said a consumer need build a protector. A best solution may even be installed by the girl who reads electric meter. One of many well proven options. That's not free where I live now, nor where I've lived in the past, assuming you're referring to 'whole house protection' from the power company and installed at the electrical demarc. Do you mean something else? The OP has numerous solutions. One fact we do know. A protector does nothing for power outages. I think that's obvious with respect to outages, but it's commonly thought that other types of power problems frequently accompany outages. Don't get stuck on the outage aspect. That's clearly not what "surge protectors" are marketed for. |
