Our take

The verdict

Our favourite thing about the Qidarusxl Grounding Kit (16.4 ft Wire) is a 17.4-inch rod, closely followed by 16.4 ft of 12 AWG wire. No buyer reviews yet, so the Qidarusxl Grounding Kit (16.4 ft Wire) has to win you over on paper. Honestly, the catch: whether you need a ground rod at all depends on your manual and local code, so check that first. We'd pick it if your manual asks you to ground the frame; otherwise, put it next to the Cationsky Grounding Kit (6.5 ft Cord) first.

The one thing we'd check first

Before the Qidarusxl Grounding Kit (16.4 ft Wire) ships, check your model number: it is listed for specific units, and fit is model-specific.
