no.
from what i saw, it has 2 pin eu plug to connect to outlet. no other connector.
so it has a built in charger.
which is probably a crappy one, probably made out of a capacitor and rectifier chip. and the torch costs ~rm15. go figure

correction.
it's rm8.

ntg wrong.. common busbar..
but either way.. not much protection also..
those critical equipment I juz connect to AVR (with surge protection).
most of the time damage comes from undervoltage..

well, when u have 10k worth of AV and others to protect the price is insignificant. It has saved my plasma, ht, laptop a couple time already. If Cal Lab isolator burnt, you just have to pay 25 to replace 1 to 1. So, you want buy a new laptop or jz spend a couple hundred, up to you.
