Lightning detector

Recommended Posts

Just doing some late afternoon surfing and found this web page:

 

http://www.boltek.com/

 

They claim to have a lightning detector with a range of 600 miles. They even show some examples of their system in a mini van. Has anybody ever looked at putting one of these in their plane???

 

Seems like all the aviation lightning detectors work better with aluminum all around them (I remember some post from a while back where some people tried installing stormscopes in a Cozy and it didn't work because there wasn't any metal around it). The sellers of this system say that its BETTER to have no metal around it. Seems like the nose of a Cozy would be the perfect place.
