The normal volt amps for the ASP300/ASP300S is 1000VA. It is recommended
that you get a surge protector with a line conditioner that will handle
1200 to 1600VA.

The 1000VA represents voltage at normal usage but when the heater turns on
for the wax or retort than the voltage will go up. Hence we recommend the
higher volt amps. It will cover all possible scenarios.

If you have an questions just give me a call.

As always, I turn to Those Who Know These Things.  I am ashamed, but I
do not have my processor attached to a surge protector or UPS
(uninterruptable power supply with surge protector thingy) - I am
suffering pangs of guilt and, at the same time, recovering from this
morning's service call to repair a melted power supply.  Not wanting to
do this again, I'm asking for recommendations on a reasonably-priced
(that's all relative, I'm sure) UPS or hefty surge suppressor for my
ASP300.  I have the info I got from Leica when I took the training, but
I would rather not have to install a unit INTO the processor; I prefer
an external.  Should I pack myself off to Radio Shack or could you
provide Serious Moral Guidance.  And my middle name is not "Brevity".
Adios.
