Until now I didn't realize that I needed to buy high joule surge protectors. My landlord suspects that I am using too much electricity in my room and that this is overloading the circuit (even though the circuit is not broken?). They are convinced that I need more new network filters and that will solve the problem. That won't happen, but I think it was necessary to buy better ones, to protect my rather expensive entertainment system. It's a bit annoying that their wiring is old and they only have two three-prong grounded outlets, so that's a must. But still. They're comfortable, form-fitting, and perfect for low-power devices or just a few items. I ended up spending a few bucks more and buying some longer surge protectors with higher joules.
