It's not a big deal, at least for me. I keep all my equipment on a surge protector, and at the end of the job, and at home before I got to bed, the surge protector is turned off. And, during electrical storms, which we have lots of during the year, the surge protectors are unplugged. Maybe I'm a bit overcautious, but having been nailed on two occasions by power surges, one that originated from a lightning strike on an underground TV cable, and blowing everything that was still plugged in, you get a bit gun-shy. And, the folks that live just two hundred yards from me had their TV short out in the middle of the night, which set their home on fire. They were not injured because the smoke detectors alerted them in time and they managed to get out of the house before the fire spread, but the overall damage took several months to repair.
