"Surge protectors can cause this, and probably 90% of the consoles they see have all failed in 6-12 months of being plugged into a surge protector."
well, maybe they are plugged into a surge protector, because these people had power surges before and that was what killed the 360?
how i see it is, that the problem is not the surge protector, but rather the 360's power supply, that fails to provide stable voltage to the 360, regardless of minor fluctuations, something any modern Power supply should be capable of, as there will always be fluctuations in any power grid (i'm NOT talking Surges here)
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
