Re: Lightning - funny how we're not seeing him any more

Leythos even claimed a 'whole house' protector contributed
to damage. Now he says otherwise. Which is it? The 'whole
house' protector does provide protection or it contributed to
electronics damage?

Leythos should read with care. The UPS claims to protect
from types of transients that are typically not destructive.
UPS does claim to protect from something. But anything
effective inside that UPS is already accomplished inside the
adjacent appliance. Somehow, Leythos dumbs this down and
distorts reality into "a UPS does NOT protect anything." That
distortion is only posted by Leythos.

If Leythos understood that APC UPS spec - and posted it -
then he could not twist reality into distortions. Ahhh ...
but that means he must first learn the numbers. Numbers are
what junk scientists fear to touch. It's just easier to
misrepresent what others have repeatedly posted.
