A comment from a customer after assembling their RC2040 kit (https://extkits.co.uk/product/rc2040/)
"I plugged it in - it works like a champ. Thank you for designing, selling, and supporting this great kit. It must be a labor of love, because you can't be charging enough to cover your labor. Thanks again!"
and Yes it is, and No I don't :)

A small easy to build Lightning detector kit, capable of detecting lightning from up to 10 miles away, giving an audible and visual alarm. The visual alarm has a flash and a storm LED and an acrylic edge lit display, which gives both an instantiations lightning indication and an indication that lightning has occurred in the last few minutes.

I like the idea, but too much bleeding edge for me as yet. When things have stabilised a bit, maybe. I realise this is chicken and egg, but I really don't want another platform that I need to keep up to date at the moment.
Thanks for suggesting it though.
