Surge Protectors

Using surge protectors and line conditioners can substantially
reduce the risk of electrical shock and aid in protecting your
notebook from power-source problems.
During a power surge, the voltage level of electricity coming into
your notebook can increase and cause data loss or system
damage. Protect your notebook and peripherals by connecting
them to a surge suppressor, which absorbs voltage surges and
prevents them from reaching your notebook.
Why Use AC Power When I've Got a Battery?

AC adapter as your power source. This method ensures that the
battery is always charged.
When your notebook does not have a charged battery, you should
save your work and turn off your notebook before unplugging it
from the AC power supply.
