fizzled surge

Drat.
Seems it's time to replace the Battery Backup / Surge Protector again... it's been acting oddly for a few days, noises and random shutdowns.
Its proprietary software isn't indicating a problem, but it's been a few years so it just very likely needs to be replaced, or at least its battery. ugh.

Local stores don't seem to have them in stock any more either.

*goes to Amazon to order*
