We hooked our cable lines to the surge protector and have no problem with signals or picture, everything is same as before just so you know, and our lightning strike surged through the cable line so if this will help protect my equipment then why not, doesn't cost much more for this type of protection. I'd rather do as much within my power to protect my property as best I can and if I still end up with a problem at least I know I tried. Just my opinion. Just because it has never happened to you doesn't mean it can't or won't, I learned that a few weeks ago.
