The 34950 Surge Protector has an LED screen and also has a higher joule rating as well. We do have a comparison guide that is ever changing with new updates and items. I will post a link to this comparison chart below so you can check out the differences between each one. Surge Guard did just release a new line of products so we are working on getting the newer parts information added to this list.

Check connection with voltmeter and verify voltages are within normal operation. If temperature exceeds, disconnect unit, allow to cool completely and recommend to find another power source. If you are still having issues after troubleshoot, you may want to contact Surge Guard Tech Support at 800.780.4324 x 20311.
