Do You Unplug Equipment During Thunderstorms?

Yes...

I never thought about it ...because I unplug my units all the time..

Yes! The best app to use if you want to know what is in the area is the Weather Bug. I had my system get hit by lightening. It came through the cable into the cable box, fried my video processor via HDMI, then killed my projector. That’s when I bought my power regenerator from PS Audio which everything plugs into and all of it is air gapped. Added bonus is it lowered the noise floor significantly and the colors on the projector actually improved, and you can program everything to start and shut down in the order you need it to. . . Huge WAF for me. The system stays unplugged unless I’m listening or watching a movie. Don’t make the same mistake!
