I've been using a heavy duty analog timer on my Brewtus 2, every day for 2 years, with no problems. If surge mattered, all your light switches in your house would fail frequently. When did you last replace one of those? I think something else is going on. bmc "Faith will move mountains, but you'd better bring a shovel....."
