Basically if you have a power surge, excessive power will go into everything you have that is plugged into the wall outlet. This is never good. This can probably fry every component or simply break it..

Lightning can flash by power lines a few miles from your home. It doesn't have to hit the lines. All it has to do is pass fairly close to a power line. It will induce a voltage charge in that line and it will seek out the path of least resistance. If my main breaker is open, this represents a lot of resistance and the charge should continue down the line.....
I have two of the ones in the second link. I never had a surge so I wouldn't know if it would do it's job. So far, though, it has been great.
