HOW GOOD IS THE NEW TG 360 SYSTEM?
Taking into account all of the Covid-19 related issues including facility closures, supply chain disruptions and travel difficulties, THOR GUARD was able to install a substantial number of new TG 360 systems with additional systems on order as I write to you. In the world of high-technology, safety- related products; there is no substitute for experience. With forty-eight years in this business studying the atmosphere and foundational aspects of lightning and severe storms, THOR GUARD was in the unique position to study all of the collected data and utilize state of the art hardware to form the basis for the new system. From there, the engineering staff accessed our many years of experience and set course for the future. All said and done, it took the last six years to produce the most advanced and reliable lightning warning system ever created.

WHAT DO OUR CUSTOMERS LIKE ABOUT THEIR NEW TG 360?
THOR GUARD archives every storm’s data from each TG 360 system. A detailed analysis of hundreds of storms throughout the world, demonstrates that the TG 360 is an amazing performer. THOR GUARD’s data clearly reveals exceptional lightning, severe storm and tornado predictions, and safe and fast return to an All Clear status. These are the key aspects of the TG 360 operational basics that we are most interested in seeing. That said, it is not THOR GUARD’s opinion that matters. The following section highlights what our customers like. Not what we expected but very encouraging.

WHAT OUR TG 360 CUSTOMERS APPRECIATE
- The ThorMobile/ThorTV display is a big plus with workers and golf members. Easy to read, inclusive and understandable.
- The Grounds Superintendents LIVE by the running ET Rates.
- Heat Warnings are life savers.

SUMMARY
It is clear that THOR GUARD has taken the most trusted lightning warning technology to an entirely new level of accuracy and reliability. There is no detection technology, single site or networked, that compares favorably to the TG 360 tour de force. You could go the detection route and get far less for the same dollars. If you already have a detection system, the TG 360 will provide warnings for the lightning and storms you are now missing and your return to work or play will be reduced by up to 70%. If you are a current customer, you can upgrade and save a bundle!
