I am looking to add a portable surge protector and see that most, if not all use the PMS . .

I see that they have 3 versions:

SSP-50X - - $139.00 on their site, cheaper elsewhere
SSP-50XL - - $151.00 on their site, cheaper elsewhere
EMS-PT50X - - $ 453.00 on their site, cheaper elsewhere

is it the EMS version I want? Is it worth the extra $$ ? I have no problem getting that one, just want to make sure it's the right choice...

Get the high priced EMS, it protects from more than the others.

EMS-PT50XL looks to be the only True EMS. It protects everything the others do, BUT adds the Hi/Low Voltage protection, and frequency protection.
Which to protect your ACs you need the low voltage protection and you need the hi voltage protection for your electonic devices.
It looks to be a portable version of the Hardwired unit that many of us are using.
The two cheaper ones look to be Fancy version of a Surge Protector, while giving you some protection won't shut the power down in all dangerous conditions.

This one on sale at CWs website for $309.
I've been using this one for 10 years & saved us several times.

Thanks Michelle ,

I was leaning towards either :
The Techno RV # SG-34850 at $329.99 - - OR - -
Progressive industries # EMS-PT50X - Tweeties has it for $337.00 NO tax - NO shipping .

Sounds like that may be the way I want to go.. thanks

Amazon has the EMS-PT50X for $333.00 w/ free shipping and the ROG gets points if you order it using the Amazon link on the left main menu.
