Can you please elaborate on the protection this provides against thunder?

Thunder -No. Lightning, and static electricity, it will protect your equipment to some degree. Although there is no protection against an act of God that being a direct hit by lightning. If you ensure your grounds are done correctly and you utilize grounded ethernet cable it will do a very good job in protecting your equipment.

Actually not to bad. It will not block wind from coming up under the hood though, but you should have a mask and safety glasses on to ward off any particles that find their way under the shield. I have used it while spraying and cutting outside in the wind and it has provided excellent protection.

It'll maintain power to the device. I'm not sure what the surge suppression is rated at (jewels), so I can't say that it will offer complete protection.

I use mine to protect my music equipment from generators. I haven't had a problem yet.

It won't completely stop it from cracking if it's like ran over or smashed with a hammer, but it will help for minor drops or being stepped on. Definitely good protection for the money!!

It's rated for a total of 15 amps, so you can protect most anything with it. It's a nice budget option for computers or flat panel televisions. It can even handle newer front loader washing machines, which have some very sensitive electronics in them. At this price there's little reason not to have one; especially with spring lightning storms coming up.

I was really impressed with the answer provided by Margaret. Because I had no idea it provided that much protection.I will be purchasing more of the product.

The Thunderstorm is like a Book Cover Case but has awesome Sound Output. The iPad fits in just right. If using the adapter, it will not give you the capability of using it as a Book Cover.

I have been in 2 thunderstorms with some winds and it has held up. I used the 4 corner stakes, 4 rope tie stakes provided which are attached, and I use an extra top tarp over the back of my truck where I sleep anchored with bungee cords to my roof rack and then anchored to front of Coleman Screen room with bungees for extra water protection. Without proper securing I'm sure it would fly in the wind as it is very light weight. I love this product but for camping long term and to endure all weather conditions which may arise I do secure it very well.

Yes it offers good protection. I shoot a lot at the ocean and this protects from salty air and sand that may be blowing in the breeze.

I am an electrician and have pretty good understanding of how lightning works. I would not have any wire in the ground without a protector unit. Nothing can guarantee 100% protection when it comes to lightning, but I feel this unit is as safe as it gets. Thanks, Don.

I"m not sure. It's a compression garment. It might be a good idea to contact the manufacturer and ask that question. Here's a link to that page where you cam make the inquiry: http://www.thundershirt.com/ContactUs.aspx

It only protects against precipitation that it blocks from landing on the windshield. If you have a lot of storms that start as rain then later freeze in the night, this might not work as well because it doesn't completely seal the glass off from water (some would likely get in around the edges).

Mainly for wind. It is a deterrent for theft, but if someone really wants to steal something, they will find a way. It does keep it from blowing off in high winds.

The unit I purchased provides great protection from the rain. We sit under the awning at times of rain and not only does it protect us it also keeps the patio furniture dry and protected.

It may help minimally, but a Faraday Cage is really the only safe protection against an EMP. See engineer775 on YouTube for helpful information regarding emp protection.

Yes, it'll protect against most any surge other then a direct lightning hit.
