that even the better ones, when they "die" for the item they protect, don't then cut off the line - they become ordinary power bars, unprotected against future surges. Apparently small surges levae them funbctional, but the big one...
Got this direct from Tripplite, who told me the whole industry works that way.
Look for the failure light, if it has one. If on, throw it out.
The rep said people want their equipment to keep working, in answer to my Q. aboiut what happens when I go on vacation, and something happens, twice.
answer - the 2nd big one gets you.
