They're capable of protecting a LOT of equipment, but overkill for just one radio. I'm not a member. This particular surge protector is hooked to all my computer equipment plus a clock, a shredder and a phone. A shredder? I can't cite anyone else but I sure wouldn't hook something with a motor up to the same serge suppresser to which I have computer and phone equipment. Why? Motors are inductive loads, and can create power spikes when they're turned on or off. Ever see lights dim for a second when a Vacuum cleaner was turned on? That's why. |
