stupid cheap SurgeX units


Paducah Home Theater

To good to be true...

When I was a teenager and working at a meat processing plant during the summer and after school at night, we "My working buddies and I" would head to a local bar after work...Any way, three dudes walked into the bar selling an unopened big *** TV...

One of my working buddies bought it for a completely crazy price....

Guess what???? he got it home, opened it up and found an empty TV cabinet....No this wasn't me....

Discontinuing maybe?

 

Dunno but after looking into it further, it seems that this does not use the same series mode technology found in other more common SurgeX units.  They try to market it for displays but if you do some digging it's actually MOV based, along with a gas tube.  The language seems to be purposely confusing.  "Series combination of varistors" is MOV's, not series mode.  Apparently it's something that ESP came up with and isn't the old school technology that came from ZeroSurge back in the late 80's.
