Hi @rippet,
Sorry I may have misread. If you were saying these units worked on the circuit, regardless of whether or not the items being "protected" were in series, then it must be a parallel surge protector.
If I misread that I apologize.
Otherwise, my original statements stand. Claims of a NASA or KGB background don't change the physics of a circuit.
Richard Gray, who makes the best parallel system I know of, still can't do surge protection. A surge would have come and gone before it responded. It is however very effective at smoothing out AC irregularities, such as by dimmer switches and motors, neighbors coming home, etc.
Best,
Erik
