Surge Protection
Surge Protection ...?
Ok, so I have a "woods True Protection" surge protector that I use with my computer, its also a backup (not sure how that works)
My question is, is it REALLY safe to be on the pc during a lighting storm?
Right now, We are having a very bad severe storm approaching here in somerset ky and I was wanting to not have to unplug my pc because Im doing some things for school and I am pressed for time.
I have heard that some ppl still have had there things destroyed even behind a protector.
Should I unplug or not? Thanks guys.
I/m not sure what a Woods True Protection is, but normally a surge protector only protects against surges in the electric rate going through your lines. If that's all it does, it WILL NOT protect your computer in the event of an electrical outage that turns off the electricity completely. I learned the hard way a few years ago, that just turning off the computer in an electrical storm will NOT save the data on it. I lost a lot of files and had to reload Windows XP and all its updates.
It's cheaper to save your document and turn it off, then unplug it.
