I'm wondering how many of you fine people have your sewing machines (especially the computerized ones) plugged into surge protectors. If so, what is the rating for your surge protector? When I went to Walmart to look at them, there were different varieties for different applications ie. small appliances, home entertainment, etc. The ones rated for larger electronics were of course more expensive. I don't really understand the need for different kinds...isn't a power surge going to trip the breaker regardless of what is plugged into it? I'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter. :?:
