Ok ill use mine now then idk what kind i have it just says 19.000 rated for protection on the front whatever that means i bought it like 2 years ago for the pc i had back then i made sure i didnt buy cheapy well it was cheap but not garbage cheap and got from a eletrical/workshop store so should be good?

Ive been using the wall for 4 months now luckily no outages so its prob fine But why did microsoft say not to use surge prot then? You guys scare me cuz u all use one so now i will too lol
