A few simple tips for protecting your electronics and yourself:
*Protect your identity! It is suggested that you keep your cell phones when you are replacing or upgrading. Your mobile phone is part of your identity: the phone has long numbers embedded in the technology that associates it with you. This may include your name and your address. When phone companies tell you that they erase your phone when you turn it in - do they really? Where's the proof? It is a fact that some of these used devices end up in China.
*Always keep your Wi-Fi network password protected. Try to use a long and lengthy password using special characters, numbers, letters.
*It is suggested that you enable a "Guest" network for visitors to use, on your home or business Wi-Fi network.
*Ensure that your computers, devices stay up to date with the latest security patches and updates. For real - the internet is not safe and there are entities trying to break into connected devices/machines.
*Operate your electronics in cool environment. Heat, along with dust build-up, is a leading cause of component failure
*Use a HIGH quality UPS or at the minimum, a surge suppressor for your devices. This should be purchased same time (or before) as the TV or other electronic equipment.
*The larger the TV, the more it may cost to get it repaired. A lot of tvs break right at the end of warranty period, if not sooner..
*We do live in a THROW IT AWAY" society! It may be wise to get an estimate on repairs for your TV. Repair costs could easily be the down-payment
for a new tv!. Try to sell your broken TV online "as is," to get some of your investment back.
*Unplug your electronics during an electrical storm, or power outage if possible.
*For long term life of TV, adjust BACKLIGHTS setting to roughly 80% or less. Most repair shops do not repair backlights-it can cost as much as a new tv!
*It's best to mount TV on the wall. This way it's away from people (especially kids), pets and other items that could damage it. Cracked screens generally
cannot be repaired.
*Try not to leave your TV on all night. This will wear it out faster staying on all day, night. All TVs have built-in timers that are easy to set.
