Nice! We had a close call Thursday after work. Lightning hit something within 100 yards of my house. I saw blue sparks come out of an outlet and the powerstrip and then Kabooooom! I had the back door open and it was loud as hell! My poor dog dropped her tail and crawled into the other room and hid for an hour. Amazingly, the surge protector/power backup kept the PC going without a hiccup and I never lost power or the internet! At least there wasn't anything with ammo parked nearby! I don't even want to think what that would look like.
