With storm season in our midst, we took the opportunity in this show to address some common surge protector myths. In this episode we answer questions like:
- Do surge protectors heal?
- How can you tell if your surge protector is damaged?
- How often should you replace surge protector?
- Will a surge protector work on a non-grounded outlet?
- Are battery backups better than regular surge strips?
We also launched a one-week special on Schrock’s audible alert surge protectors. These units audibly beep when they are work out so you know they need to be replaced. Normally these units are $49.99, but this week only they are on sale for only $29.99.
The sale ends on May 16th at 8:00 PM, or while supplies last.
This was a recorded show, so there were no live callers.
