beetlemania Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 My home was lightning struck, at least indirectly, about 10 years ago. I knew it was a close calll when I was blasted out of bed but didn't realize how close 'til next morning. It was trash day and I wheeled the can to the curb. "Why is there a shingle in the driveway" I asked myself. I turned around and saw a section of roofing blown apart where the electrical service comes in. I lost all of the delicate electonics in my house including my NAD receiver, Technics turntable, and Rotel tape deck (also, the watch on my bed stand!). I have a much more expensive system now. When I hear thunder approaching, I always unplug all components. I also unplug when I go on vacation.
