Ouch Tim,

Sorry to hear, I hope you have good renters or HO's insurance. I would give Outlaw a call, they will help you if they can.

Firm believer in surge prot. in my eratic neighborhood its a required appliance. Nothing helps on a direct strike like yours (except a plug ...not in the socket).

I just lost half the outlets on my Cyber Power box through which my home office gear is all shunted. Time to shop again.
3 slots are now non-funtioning after several surges in my neighborhood last week. Goes to prove MOV's do wear out.

Best of luck sorting your HT out!
