Three-year-old Zenith, plugged into a strip with a trip, watching SpongeBob, and zissst, flash, sparkle, black screen, hum, rancid smell in the air.
Dead.
Shouldn't that strip have turned off all the power in a situation like this?

They've all gone out, gone dead, or just gotten so blurred that they were unusable. Terrible product. The 1st time I thpught, nah, just a fluke. The 2nd time, I thpught well, I guess 4 years is about what I can expect. This one is the last one, having lasted only 3 years, with a surge protector, and its gettin fuzzier than a fat ladies navel.
