FallenAngel6 Â Â 10 #1 Posted March 26, 2010 This has got to be the 5th one in 3 months everything flickered on and off. Â Its just getting a bit stupid we have things that could break and we've thought have broke after a surge. Â Is anyone else had any of these surges???

nerd   10 #2 Posted March 26, 2010 I know this might sound odd, but did something weird just happen in the firthpark/firvale/longley area? A few minutes ago all my power went off for a few seconds, which wouldn't be so weird except loads of car alarms suddenly started going off at the same time. Which seems a bit weird. Did anyone else notice this or was it just a bizarre coincidnece? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

gina2007 Â Â 10 #6 Posted March 26, 2010 Ha! The joys of a fully charged laptop Shiregreen = caralarms going off everywhere! And house alarms. Strange. My cooker and tv didnt go off though, just my lights Thought i'd tripped the switch at first! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
FallenAngel6 Â Â 10 #7 Posted March 26, 2010 My laptop stayed on but these sort of surges can destroy TVs, Computers, Xbox's, Playstations absolutely anything...its ok but its happened before, next time it COULD break something.

nerd   10 #10 Posted March 26, 2010 Yeah, thats what I found weird. House alarms I can see why, they are on mains power, but why would it make car alarms go off??? All my power went off, but only for a few seconds if that. I was surprised it all came back on because some of my trips are a bit jumpy and I normally have to go and reset them.
