thinking about buying a surge protector but have a couple of questions: my owners manual for my keystone hideout, 24 footer, says it has a built in protector, but it doesn't say whether it's 6000 or 9...
Having MOV device protection is like having a 400 pound gorilla neighbor state, "If you ever gotta problem out there getting strong-armed, you got my cell phone number".
Metal Oxide Varistors do work, but react v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y. High frequency high amplitude transients are ignored and those are the ones that will eat your electronic's integrated circuits for lunch. Line surge protectors with MOVS P-L-U-S Avalanche Rectifiers are the way to go.
