This means that EMPs and CMEs (from solar class flares such as M-Class and X-Class) can cause certain smart meters to explode.
One of my friends had to have three smart meters (gas, water, and electric) removed from her property because they awakened her every night around 2 AM to send their squeaky signals to the office. The utility companies charged her $70 per meter removed. After paying that $210 bill, she now has a $10 per meter monthly charge with a 10 percent city tax added on. Therefore, she ends up paying $33.00 extra every single month just to opt out of the smart meters.
Most of her neighbors are not opting out. She lives in a tract of homes that looks similar to those in Northern California. This is in La Canada, folks, where a few homes are selling for $2,000,000. Many homes in that hillside area are selling for over $5,000,000.
