Yeah, they maybe fresh but I don't see this doing much good for someone
living in an apartment or one doesn't have control of the house.

Myself, I am more interested in keeping the power clean and constant to
the router or FW appliance and other devices, which I had a lot of
problems with the router as household appliances switched on and off on
the line like the air conditioner, refrigerator, furnace etc. etc.
causing problems that the UPS corrected the problems and I never had
another peep out of the router.
