Brick Wall is a reseller of the ZeroSurge product. It is the same technology, just differently packaged. I use these and purchase directly from whomever is cheaper at the moment (factoring in shipping cost). The literature makes sense to me and they seem to work well.
'best' surge protection?
any thoughts on comparisions between SurgeX, ZeroSurge, or BrickWall? Need to look at 'outlet protection!
We had 'wholehouse' surge protection installed by an electrican when we upgraded from 100A to 200A service. Yet, during a recent storm we lost 2 telephones, a cable modem, a wireless router, a computer, and a home theater in the box unit! We definitely have issues with the power company who won't come out and replace the lines feeding our house (visibly frayed insulation-I've seen the wires sparking as they tangle in the wind!).During the mentioned storm, we lost one leg of the 120VAC. Everything on those circuits were fine (basement circuits with plenty of electronic gear); and yet, the leg we didn't lose had the problems!
