My Samsung TV (UN55D6050) just blew up with a sound. It went dark. Red led on the front is not lit. It wonโt start. I never experienced any such thing in 50 years of using TV. This LED TV is almost 15 year old. I guess I have to throw it away as opposed trying the fix capacitor/supply board etc. Earlier this morning also the TV got turned off and couple of lights in the room dimmed for an sec. After that I was able to turn the TV back on. And in the evening, the TV just blew up. I hope itโs the issue with the TV and there is nothing else going on at home with regard to electric connections/line etc.
I recommend using a UPS unit (uninterrupted power supply) to protect against damaging surges. They are a great investment to have knowing your expensive tv's are protected. "Cyberpower or APC"(UPS unit) are a good relible brand.
You do have sufficient surges protection, using the Belkin. Either way you are protected, but i think ups is a better option. I personally prefer the UPS unit, especially if you have a reciever.
