This warranty excludes all stand-alone “electronic equipment” using microchip, microprocessor or transistor technology, such as but not limited to computers, televisions, DVD Players/Recorders and Security Systems.
I read the entire SECO surge protector warranty and I could not determine that anything that is covered by the warranty. They don't cover electrical outlets or wiring, security systems, fire alarm systems, electronics, or anything with a motor or a microchip. Washers, dryers, microwaves, and almost everything else you plug in has a microchip. So, what is covered by their warranty???
