i personally have the seco protector collar on my elec. Panel and several little protectors on tv's , phones. Etc etc...

Having said that, i also must tell you that we went to a meeting with the fire people and the lighting question was asked of the chief.......
He stated that collar's and lightning rods have very little effect if any in preventing strikes..........also said that some believe that they actually attract lighting.........

I personally think its a crap shoot...... Its the luck of the draw but you' ll sleep better then its probably worth the money....
