I have always thought it was kind of interesting/cool you could do this. A project I have always wanted to do is to set up a bunch of detectors over a lora network and try to have it show "hits" on a map in near real-time. I don't know how hard that would be but it would be fun.

>You would think detecting lightning would be easy. Each lightning bolt has a staggering amount of power, and, clearly, you can hear the results on any radio. But it is possible to optimize a simple receiver circuit to specifically pick up lightning. That’s exactly what [Wenzeltech] shows in a page with several types of lightning detectors complete with photos and schematics.
