yes indeed professor!

These surge protector strips have very little safeguard against the amount of energy that alightning strike will generate.

I also use APC Uninterrupted Power Supply for my systems..

HAve for a very long time...... Good counsel!

Linda - power strips will do very little in protecting from huge and sudden power surges. What does work are UPS systems - the bigger, the better (1200VA recommended for most computers/laptops). These WILL protect against almost direct lightning strikes - have witnessed that myself more than once.

Brand - APC have always built excellent UPS systems - and are what I predominantly buy. BACKUPS are a good line in their offerings.
