Suggestion|| Voltage Stabilizer for TV

[awestorr]

Inspite of tv companies claiming stabilizer free operation, some people prefer to use them.
Are there any advantages in using these for tv.
For ex, i have ordered a 43 inch samsung this sale
I have personally known 2 people whose tv developed those purple lines on the panel ,all over a span of 3 to 5 years.
This has made me a bit cautious.

Also, what brands are good?
I see vguard, everest,nextron and microtek.
Seems like only vguard is spending on marketing

In the last 20 years, has any of your equipment failed due to high voltage? If not, there's no need to worry about it.

I had my tvs smps damaged once during a storm.
Unfortunately it was connected to the mains (turned off obviously)and i wasnt at home.

Even my 6 years old TV has gotten one vertical purple line in the center, doesn't mean it was due to voltage fluctuation. More likely some component inside caused it after such long usage (it was used as a primary display for my PC before I bought a monitor).

If you worry about voltage fluctuations then install a mainline voltage stabilizer so your whole house is covered and you don't need to install stabilizer for each heavy/delicate appliance in your house (like ACs, Fridge, TVs, PCs etc). This will cost a bit more your typical stabilizer though so that's a downside.
