Thanks for the reply.

After I placed the post and went back and re-read information on the 5300/5100 and they specifically have outlets for high current devices.

I read the links, which I appreciate. However they did not address the issue I am worried about. I guess the question I have is how quick do the surge protectors respond to a surge. The answer may lie in the plethora of stats on the various surge protectors' websites but I can't tell.
