Well, the thing is...for me at least this is a good thing. If I am working with certain pieces of equipment for a while (over days) I leave the wall wart plugged in, but I have all my power coming from one power strip going on to others. the point is, with one plug I can turn off power (after turning off units with on/off switches) completely to the whole little studio room.

I find this comforting when we get thunderstorms, beause people liveing near us have lost TV sets, radios, all kinds of things in recent years in lightning.

Well, than i guess also the power supply TO the Pa-3B was switched 
off. When i turn my AN1x off, and leave the Pa-3B in the plug, so 
that it can eat energy, it stays handwarm. 

Whatever wall wart you leave with energy, switching off the synth, 
doesn´t switch off the wall wart. You have to either pull the wall 
wart out of the plug or use a switchable plug-board.

Lightning

2001-10-04 by Phil

Hi Jim,

Yes, one can never be too careful...

I've lost two modems within a year due to electrical storms. I've been very
fortunate: The modem has effectively acted as the fuse to my Apple G4 Mac.
It could have been disastrous. I've since invested in a lightning/surge
protector.

Phil
