Do you plug your power adapter into the wall or a surge protector?

[QUOTE="iggibar, post: 910658, member: 97843"] I would not trust that statement! If this were true, how come the battery stays fully charged all the time when connected? I lost a great LCD tv because my surge protector ran out of outlets and I stupidly plugged the tv right into the wall jack! Everything but my tv was fine when something around us got hit by electricity(power line pole maybe?) Just about everyone would recommend a surge protector, I would stick with that recommendation! I would especially recommend buying the TRIPP-LITE brand. The one I have guarantees it will save everything connected to it or they will cover the expense to replace it up to $100,000! And why does everyone on here assume that an electrical surge only occurs during a lightning storm only??? That's SO wrong! There doesn't need to lightning for more electricity to enter your home! If something goes wrong with the power pole, you are going to get a huge amount of electricity entering your house! I'm using this, along with a cheaper $80 one, WELL worth the money!!
