Protecting Your Audio System During Excessive Summer Heat

We're already experiencing extreme heat this summer....it's only begun. Be careful with potential Brownouts and Blackouts this year as the heat rises.

Sound advice and awareness Lou.

Yeppers. Oh, you can really hear the relays on some vacuum tube equipment really chatter when it hits around 100 to 105 volts..

Maybe unplug when away from home.

[@audibleeleganceinc]

Absolutely correct! Vacation mode means almost everything gets unplugged!
Thanks for your contribution.

Always love your videos and I'm okay not necessarily always agreeing. I tend to give you my deference because you know lots more. However, you stated we'd all be affected by brown-outs and black-outs. Well, I've never experienced one of either in my 66 years. Certainly not to any extent that any of my stereo components were affected let alone damaged. Maybe they're more common in locales for which I'm not familiar?

Heat and electric cars are going to change even your world.

@@audibleeleganceinc Are you talking about my electric bill? My home is all-electric. I’ve already have seen effects of climate change in my electric usage, specifically in the winter. Electric cars, are going to affect me how?

@@zizendorf Well, we produce only so much electric. New England gets their electric from Canada. Add electric cars to the load. Heck, even California has asked people not to charge their cars so they would have electric for air conditioning.
