I'm about to purchase a new HDTV (50" Plasma) ... do I need a UPS or Surge Protector for it?
I live in an older house that has two prong outlets...no grounding wire...except for my computers, I've had an electrician install new outlet box and run a ground wire back to the service box on my house (just for the 2 outlets for my computers) , plus i have a 1100VA UPS on each computer...
I plan to ground the outlet for the HDTV the same way as my computers... However, some have suggested that I need to have a really good surge protector or UPS for the HDTV.
Thanks for your comments/suggestions![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
