Electrical spike

[Leroy Eckert]

Dang I hate to here that. I'm glad everyone is OK. I never plug in without my
EMS PT-50 portable, thanks to J. Suter. http://www.viprv.com. Not cheap, but a heck
of a lot less than what happened. Again, happy everyone is OK.

I have read through various other forums of individuals experiencing
this. I just went through this yesterday.
After leaving the coach around 7 am, I arrived back around 1 pm to no
electricity. I checked the breakers, called my son inlaw to see if
they had power- he said all is well. He said, also, that the lights in
his house acted weird for a short period of time.
Looked at the outside breaker box- 50 amp tripped. Discovered my bus
power cord melted. Looks like someone just cut the male plug end off
and just left an exposed wire hanging there.
Found out, that all 120 volt/12 volt transformers- tv antenna booster,
maglite charger, my main tv- smells burnt electrical, and many more
have been fried.
Of course, with full coverage insurance- nothing is covered. why do we
have that stuff in the beginning??
Looks like I'm in the market for some surge protection. FYI
Ernie-83PT40 in Montana- thank heavens my computer is ok, and my girls
are too.
