Lightning strikes pose a serious threat to home electronics, especially TVs, often resulting in persistent vertical lines across the screen due to power surges. These thin, colored, or black stripes running top to bottom disrupt viewing and signal internal damage from voltage spikes. Pro-Logic Technologies in Nairobi specializes in diagnosing and repairing lightning-induced TV screen […]

In Kenya, the cost to repair a lightning‑damaged TV main board typically ranges from about Ksh 8,000 to Ksh 20,000, depending on the brand, size, and severity of the damage. This bracket usually covers both the new or refurbished mainboard and the labor to install it, though some shops quote parts and labor separately. Typical price

Yes, lightning‑damaged TV boards can usually be repaired, but the method and success depend on how badly the boards are burned or cracked. In many cases the damage is limited to one or two boards (power supply, main board, or T‑CON), so replacing or re‑working those specific boards can restore the TV fully without needing

Lightning‑damaged TV boards usually show clear, repeatable symptoms that distinguish them from normal wear‑and‑tear failures. These signs mostly appear on the power supply board, main board, and T‑CON board, even if the screen looks intact from the outside. Recognizing these symptoms early helps you avoid repeated “try‑again” power‑on attempts that can worsen the damage. TV

TV cracked components on boards from lightning effect are among the most common—and often most expensive—types of TV failures in Kenya. A single lightning‑induced surge can blast tiny capacitors, ICs, resistors, and traces, leaving your television completely dead or displaying weird artifacts, flickers, or no image at all. At Pro‑Logic Technologies, we specialize in board‑level

Whole‑house surge protection is installed at or near your main electrical panel and must be wired into the live service, so it is best done by a licensed electrician. The device (a surge protective device, or SPD) intercepts large voltage spikes on the incoming power line and safely shunts them to ground before they reach

Surge protectors do not reliably protect against a direct lightning strike hitting your house or the power line feeding it. The energy in a direct strike (often billions of joules) vastly exceeds what even high‑joule plug‑in strip or whole‑house surge protectors are designed to handle, so they can be destroyed and still let damaging current through to your TV

For TV surge protection, look for units with at least 1,000–2,000 joules, ideally higher for premium flatscreens; many reviewers consider 3,000–4,500 joules a strong range for home‑theater setups. These models also typically include coaxial/cable protection, EMI/RFI filtering, and status‑indicator lights to confirm protection is still active. Examples of high‑joule surge protectors APC Performance SurgeArrest P11VT3 – Around 3,400 joules, with 11

To prevent TV damage from lightning strikes, the key is to cut the path by which surges reach your screen—through the power line, antenna, cable, or network connections. Combining hardware protection with simple habits during storms greatly reduces the risk of costly repairs or replacements. Use proper surge protection Invest in a high‑quality surge protector
