My apologies if this is in the wrong section, but I thought it was a pretty general question.
I currently have my rig, Logitech e5300's, my 24" monitor, 42" HDTV, and HD DVR DirecTV box all plugged into the same surge protector with no issues. I also plug either a small desk lamp or window fan in the extra outlet on the surge protector from time to time.
I will be finally building my dedicated folding rig either this week or the next. I don't have a dedicated display for it, so I was planning on connecting it to my HDTV, and use that to check it from time to time.
What I am thinking is that because the folding rig is just going to be one plug, would it be safe to run that off the surge protector as well. My main rig is only on when I'm awake and home, but the folder I want on 24/7. This would really be ideal as I can just have the second tower on the left side of my desk, and use a wireless mouse and keyboard for when needed.
So is it too much to put on one surge protector?
