Bitcoin miners, is there any prevention from lightening when running your asic miner in the rainy season?
What happen to an Asic miner when they stooped working due to lightening strike? The power board or the entire machine is toasted?
Is there anything that can still work in an Asic miner after getting striked by lightning? Something useful and worth keeping in case you have a faulty miner in future?
If the Asic miner is literally struck by lightning, it will obviously be destroyed and can no longer be used for sure, of course if it is struck by lightning, it is possible that it will be completely destroyed. Now if there is just a strong lightning and the Asic miner is not hit, there may be a problem with its life span and its operation.
And it is also possible to have short circuits in the miner which can be the cause of damage. Apart from this, it can also happen that its internal components are damaged too.
