With all due respect , OF COURSE it's worth the expense !

To Hell with the TV or any test equipment , trinkets can be replaced , people can't , and there have been lots of folks done in by good ol 110 !

An Isolation transformer is a must for any hot chassis set , it's the electronics hobby's Jockstrap
