    Ok so i understand the resons for grounding the power/telephone poles, and I understand the 'whole house' protectors. Are these also called lightening arrestor systems or is that something else?

    Should one have grounded lightening rods on thier house or is this just "encourageing a strike" rather than routing errant lightening into the ground? Which is worse?

    Sorry, im not trying to hijack the thread.

    EDIT: ok I did a bunch of reading and according to the people that sell lightening rod systems, hehe, I definately SHOULD have them. Something like this.

    Boy that info was old. As am I. Currently my kids have taken over my desktops. They are both sporting matching GTX1080's. Last Christmas I got everyone Oculuses and thus GTX1080's. My eldest is some sort of CSGO champion gold label something or other. Me I work and shoot real guns. Build Comps as needed.
