So you are smarter and don't agree with Einstein and Joule?

fl_fly_boy again demonstrate genius learned from a matchbook.
Joules can measure energy dissipated, energy transferred, or energy
stored. Because an MOV is rated in joules, that proves MOVs only
absorb energy? Yes, according to fl_fly_boy. No, according to
reality.

How to get aprotectorto absorb less energy? More joules.
Therefore theprotectorhas a longer life expectancy. More joules -
using all its joules during everysurge- is why the properly sized
'whole house'protectorearths direct lightning strikes - and remains
functional. Grossly undersized plug-in protectors also are reason to
worry about these 'scary pictures':

? Nope, never said that, jumping to conclusions again, my comments are
about "How does that power strip protector make energy just
disappear?", thermal energy, joules.

If you had asked "How does that power strip protector make energy just
go away?" probable would have brought up I and/or A - current of the
MOV (or as you more elegantly use words like carry, divert, transfer,
and a few others.

If you had asked "How does that power strip protector work?" we could
talk about inductors, coils mov's single - multi stage, point of
entry, point of use, plenty of reliable information out their

Being the technical Mr. Rogers (which I like better than Dr. Seuss),
you claimed to be, using words like grossly, vaporize, mostly,
pathetic, embellishing does nothing for your delusional cause.

"No wonder he recommends plug-in protectors. He has a half fact. Now
he is an
expert." No you have half the facts, as I told you before dip, I
believe in a good ground electrode system (don't know what you call
it, dirt?), bonding as important as grounding, arrestor on incoming
ac, tvss - spd at main panel, additional protection to catv ground
block for center wire protection, secondary protection on the phone
line, tvss on the air conditioner outside, multi-port point of use
protectors on the TV's, security, and computers, ac point of use on
sprinkler system and garage door opener. Care to guess how I did on
two direct lightning hits in the last 15 years.

W_tom's at least smart enough to not bury his valuables in the back
yard he takes them to the bank. His only requirement is entry
protection on the front door, a lock. He is not concerned about the
back door or windows, who need that, it can't work, it's to far from
the front door, no alarm system, no vault, not needed got the lock on
the front door, my valuables are safe.

'scary pictures' ah, if I can't be intelligent at least I can say
mutter something.
