I've been close to lightning strikes already. It's very, very scary. There's no warning. Just a very loud explosion. Once was on the motorway in the UK. The other was recently. My cat was terrified (so was I) and her heart was beating like crazy. I could feel it next to my leg.

@Jafo yes, the soil is frustrating. Just digging small holes with manual tools is extremely difficult. It's not bedrock, it's just rocky soil mixed with clay. I really need some better power tools. However, I can't justify a tool only for a single job. It needs to be generally useful for many purposes. A hammer/demolition drill is probably something I could use for many purposes. The long concrete drill bit is something I can use too.

I really want to have 3 grounding rods to have the best earthing of my system.
