[QUOTE="SteelAttack"][QUOTE="GodModeEnabled"]Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa freaking WHOA. You mean plugging it into a surge protector will ruin it? Mine has been pluged into one since December...... *freaks out*DJ_Lae
I freaked out, too. I unplugged it as soon as I read it.
You might as well plug it back in, I have no idea how a surge protector between the 360 and the wall would cause any problems. At best the surge protector is going to take the brunt of a large sustained surge, and at worst it's just going to take the 360's brick along with it, which would happen anyway if it were plugged directly into the wall. Even a crappy surge protector is not going to cause problems- it's just a bad surge protector and does little more than add plugs to a socket.
Im just going to jump in here and quote this for truth and emphasis.I have 3 surge protectors on all my equipment. And i know people that work at electronic parts outlet stores, that daisy chain surge protectors with 10 behind an uninterruptable powersupply.
Ill say it again, pluggin in a 360 to a surge protector is not going to break anything, and infact as DJlee says the only thing its going to do is protect the 360s surge protector from going south in the event there is a power spike or your house gets hit by lightning.
