Very solid and gives you the option of using the provided grounding crimp/screw or bulkhead mount through 3/4" hole. Do they work? They are definitely well grounded but I don't want to tempt Mother Nature. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ LOOKS GOOD, FITS WELL. WILL IT WORK? *by C***B on November 9, 2025* I have this protecting two attic ham radio antennas. Some say it isn't necessary, but doing it just in case. I have a large grounding wire going to the house ground which is a cold water pipe in the garage near the water heater. Do you think a lightning strike would unsolder all the copper joints in the house? Hope not. Anyway, I don't know if it'll work when needed or perform as planned. Keeping my fingers crossed. Lost a star because of the unknown, and it's more my fault then theirs. ## Frequently Bought Together - XRDS-RF UHF Lightning Arrestor PL-259 Lightning Surge Protector PL259 Plug (UHF Male) to SO239 Socket (UHF Female) Bulkhead Arrestor for CB Ham Two-Way Radio Base Antennas - MOOKEERF UHF CB Coax Cable, 50ft KMR400 PL259 Male to Male Coaxial Cable Low Loss UHF Cable CB Coax Cable for HAM Radio, VHF Radio, SWR Meter, Antenna Analyzer - MOOKEERF RG8x Jumper Cable 3ft,2 Pack PL259 Jumper Cable,CB Coax Cable 50 Ohm,UHF PL259 Male to Male Low Loss CB Antenna Cable for CB Radio,HAM Radio, VHF Radio, SWR Meter, Antenna Analyzer --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/558281061-xrds-rf-uhf-lightning-arrestor-pl-259-lightning-surge-protector](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/558281061-xrds-rf-uhf-lightning-arrestor-pl-259-lightning-surge-protector) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
