I mean. Im using line interactive ones and have for 4-5 years.

I have to de-tune their sensitivity but they work.

But it does stress the CPU power supply caps a little more and shorten their life. But the caps on the board are fine, and havent had an equipment failure outside of a PSU...And ive run literal weeks on genny power.

But that stress is more due to Hz being at the threshold and artificial stepped sine wave i think. Voltage fluctuations when load kicks up certainly doesnt help.
