The voltage of a single spark of lightning will be about millions of volts...There is no machine in the world to store the energy of lighting.. Once James Franklin tried to make a machine to produce volage from lighting. But he failed to do so........

Lightning Potential can be very high indeed, but remember a lightning bolt carries thousands, if not thousands of amps aswell.
The standard value for Lightning Voltage is between 10 Million and 120 Million Volts. For Amperage it is thought to be around 200,000 Amps.

Yes it has and can be as much as 1000 million volts. I think that would make your hair stand out!
