2 Oldcrabs: YOu clearly know something about electricity. Wow. Well, it was our house that the guys flew down from Eton came to along with another two. What is so annoying for us is the breaker that goes is affecting the computer.
Actually, my neighbor who has suffered this tripping problem told me his computer totally died yesterday. He is an engineer by profession so has a little more pertinent knowledge than I and he is wondering if this constant tripping was involved as he has had no issues with it prior and it is relatively new. He is off to purchase a new one and get all his tax info that was almost complete taken off the old one. I think he is unhappy
Well, I am glad I posed the question because I now know that this is a widespread issue not just localized and that TV will just continue to go through the motions of working on it but they already know there really isn't an answer. Their hands are tied. I now understand why they say that Eton is working on it but it isn't really going to be fixed. It is inherent in the design and I now understand why certain things, especially ham radios with their frequency arcs will set them off at an alarming rate.
And as someone suggested yesterday, this was some idea of some greedy dumb guy looking to jack up the price for personal profit and got DC to pass regulation saying all the world must use these to make our lives safer so they could 10 fold the price...HAHAH. There we go Gracie.. you were right...it's a conspiracy !!!
So I gather from this thread, we are on our own on this issue so we should replace them all with the old type after the warranty period is up? which TV cannot suggest and then if we sell the house, put in the original ones? Is that what you mean 2 OldCrabs?
