A faulty power strip is what caused me to get out of Vinyl in the first place. While I was away at college my parents put all of my LPs and 45s and turntable down in the basement under my father's workbench. The power strip on the bench shorted out and caused a fire with my vinyl its main fuel. It caused considerable smoke damage to my parents house and sent me to go all digital until this year. The slag pile from my records was impressive and the fire inspector though it was the biggest pile of burnt up records he had seen.
Power strips go bad. Even if they don't cause fires they might not protect as they should. I now replace my lesser strips every few years.Merry Christmas,
Jim
