I'm new to the HT scene and new to the forum. It rocks BTW!
I just purchased a 56" rear projection DLP and naturally want to protect my investment in HT wonderland!
I live in an area with the occasional power outage. Far more common are "brown outs" - the power doesn't go out, but everything fades and comes back up. I want clean power, so I figured I'd get a power conditioner. So far, none of the ones I have looked at (monster and belkin) seem to have a battery backup built into them.
As a temporary solution I have a best buy APC UPS that the tv plugs in to, but I have a hunch that it isn't going to have enough juice to power the tv long enough for me to run over and turn off the tv so that the fan can cool the lamp down for a proper shutdown.
What does everybody else do? Suggestions/Opinions etc are most welcome!
