I was thinking about installing an elevated outlet at the rear of the TV but changed my mind. When we bought our house in TV and went to Best Buy for a TV the sales guy asked if we were full time residing in Florida or not. We are not, at least not yet that is. He advised unplugging the TV when we head north since Florida is the " Lightning capital of the world" as a preventative measure. So I leave the wire and plug down low so it's easy to see and remember to unplug when we leave. Small effort for the peace of mind
