Hi there,
I have a laptop and also a Planar monitor hooked up to it and all in a power surge protector and yes I had heard you still are not safe.
What heppened to me though was everything was on and I was in another room. A vehicle hit an electric pole with a transformer on it just outside my house. We were without power for about 12 hours. When it came back on my laptop was OK but my Planar monitor will not come back on. No light or anything. It is the one with the power brick and they cost like $70 so I just wonder can anyone be pretty sure this is what it is before I spend the money. If it could be something else I would rather not spend the money.
Thanks
