What is a Car Lightning Arrester?
3 Answers
Car lightning arresters are actually transceivers used for GPS positioning and tracking. Below are specific details about car lightning arresters: 1. Cars do not have lightning arresters: The insulating properties of car tires are quite good. If lightning strikes a car, the current cannot form a circuit to the ground, so it does not pose a threat to people or the car. 2. Insulation reasons: Car tires may have water or other conductive substances on their surfaces, and some are equipped with anti-static grounding wires. If lightning strikes the car, the current tends to flow along the metal surface, which does not harm people. The current is conducted through the car's surface to the tires, which may have water or other conductive substances, or through the anti-static grounding wire to the ground, forming a circuit without causing harm to people or the car.
With nearly 20 years of hands-on experience in the auto repair industry, I've encountered all sorts of shock absorber issues. Shock absorbers are primarily the components in the suspension system responsible for absorbing vibrations, cushioning road impacts to ensure a smooth ride. Their internal structure consists of hydraulic fluid and pistons—when encountering bumps, the fluid flows to create resistance that prevents wheel bounce. If they fail, the vehicle will sway excessively, handling becomes unstable, tire wear accelerates, and even braking distance may increase. During repairs, I typically first check for oil leakage marks, then manually press down on each corner of the car body to observe rebound performance. After installing new shocks, a wheel alignment is usually necessary to ensure precision. Premium vehicles now feature electronically controlled suspensions that automatically adjust stiffness for different road conditions, delivering superior comfort. Remember: never skip regular maintenance, or minor issues could escalate into major repairs.
I've been commuting by car for over a decade, and the quality of shock absorbers directly impacts daily driving experience. When the shocks are new and functioning well, going over speed bumps or rough roads feels almost unnoticeable – stable and quiet. With worn-out shocks, every bump becomes uncomfortable, body roll worsens during turns, and high-speed driving gets riskier. After one replacement, the difference was remarkable: comfort skyrocketed, handling improved, and even fuel efficiency slightly increased. I recommend car owners check their shocks every two years or 50,000 km by simply pressing down on the body to test rebound and listening for unusual noises. Long-term neglect of failing shocks can lead to chassis damage, making replacement parts more expensive – a lesson I learned the hard way. Safety first, don't cut corners to save money.
