<font color='#000000'>It's not that I'm having any problems, it's just that I want the best performance possible. Also since the power is "cleaner" it supposedly helps increase the life of your equipment, since anything you plug into it doesn't have to deal with the variability (minor power surges and such) of your homes A/C current. Also I'm getting a bit short on outlet space. Since this thing had about 12 outlets I figured I'd look into it and kill two birds with one stone.</font>
