router , modem are sensitive to lightning Surge . they are the first to get fry .

in your case both your belkins maybe nearly dead due to too many strikes.
I suspect your house have a grounding earth system /rod issue.
your earth ground may be faulty with high resistance/impedance.
get it check .
you maybe living in a more lightning prone area . KV

Mine is blinking faintly too. Any idea is it a defect in the unit or something else in your case? Did you claim warranty if it was a defect?

tumpang thread; if i use AVR, can it protect my equipments from lightning surge as well?

does this happen on other plug socket within your house ?

if no then you may have bad contact , contact not secured tight . or possible your house earth system is compromised.
try do this test in a friends house to verify the blinking .
ys possible too the belkin is faulty .

the best device for lightning surge is a surge SDP installed at the DB box. as your whole house is protected.

ys AVR can protect but cant beat the SDP .
AVR main function is to provide a stable 240 V .

Don't expect warranty claim in Msia. We don't have consumer power compare with US.

i'm using Apc,

So far so good

Bought @ harvey norman

how long have u used it? the battery still working?

Which model?

1. Belkin new surge protector no longer provide lifetime warranty.
2. Belkin Malaysia will not entertain u if ur surge protector broken and require RMA, u need to go back to the seller. If the seller closed shop, then good luck.

I got 2 of their surge protectors failed. One, I am getting a new replacement, the other one seller refunded me. Belkin design are so bulking and really takes up a lot of space compares to APC. After getting my refund, I bought the APC surge protector, so far so good and it comes with 3 yrs warranty.
