    surge protectors offer little protection. you need to get a UPS for your equipment, they cost more but they WORK!!!

    you should get a: Sine Wave Output UPS

    APC is a good brand.

    Ronrains is ever so correct.The new tvs have an expensive lamp that needs constant cooling. If the power goes out, then the tv shuts off and the lamp is not cooled as per the shutdown cycle, This extended heat period shortens the life of the lamp, hence an UPS power supply is needed.
