Environmental Potentials EP-2050 whole house surge protector and AC noise filter. It's the residential version of an industrial surge protector used by companies like Pepsi. I've installed them on my last four houses and swear by the devices. Back when the first one was installed I noticed a reduction in mysterious blue - screen - of - death computer crashes, and the HDTV picture suffered far fewer "break ups" (not sure what else to call it when part or all of the image "shatters" into random blocks). I haven't lost any equipment during several power outages caused by a hurricane, winter storms, and severe thunderstorms. The only problem is that Environmental Potentials seems to be mostly focused on their commercial market and appear to have only one dealer who sells to consumers.
