really?

interesting...when I had my helix plugged right into the wall and I lost power it blew the fuse in the helix. I of course called Rich at Reptile Basics. One of the questions he asked me was..."Do you have the helix hooked up to a surge protector?" I said no and he advised me to use one.

now I have a power bar with a surge protector.
