I know I've mentioned this before. I've spoken to several Villagers whose homes were severly damaged by lightning, who had no idea of this risk here in Central Florida.
As far as surge protection, so many Villagers installed the Eaton Ultra or PSP Vortex, when speaking to my electrician contact, they said they ran out of these devices for a while last year there was so much demand..

My guess is those you have spoken with no prior knowledge of weather in Florida, must have lived in states with extremely low weather events. Or never traveled to parks during summer breaks.
We didn’t live in tornado alley yet 15+ tornadoes could devastate neighborhoods every summer.
Straight winds of 80-100mph does just as much havoc.
Lightning/thunder storms were abundant striking homes with Gas, trees, and starting fires.
I can’t imagine moving to any state permanently and not do any kind of research.
As far as lack of Eaton or PSP Vortex last year, because of high demand was that just the electrician you recommended or total wipe out in all the state of FL.
How does the low inventory warning of 2024 equate to 2025?
