" ...  A surge protector, like insurance, is one of those things that you buy hoping that you will never actually need. ... While surge protectors do serve that function, the real important reason to have one is the fact that a power surge can damage your electronics, which in a modern household can quickly add up to thousands of dollars worth of damage. ... I'm not going to lie and say that I use high quality surge protectors everywhere in my home. ... However, all of my mission-critical and/or expensive electronics stay behind real surge protectors from reputable brands—just like this one.  ...  "
