Garage
I am no electrical engineer, but I would think turning off the power strip surge protector is about the same as unplugging it. In a lightning strike unplugging is better, but lightning is kinda hard to predict, so most people just have a surge protector as a their name implies.

For me is a pain in the butt with no electricity to get the cars in or out of the garage. I have to open the door after I pull the handle, and open the door, get in the car, pull the car out, lower the door and lock it, then go through the kitchen and out the back door, around the house down the side yard to the driveway. It makes me really appreciate electricity.
