I run a Digital Logger just at my home (because I was always told they were crap, and acquired it by chance). I have used it for over ten years now and the only issue that I had was the fan got noisy for awhile and then died (it is an old model...I don't think the new ones have fans). It still runs fine in a controlled environment without a fan. I use it to power cycle my Roku, Router, and Game Consoles when they have issues.
