Damn, Illinois WISPs are hard core.

I dont know, sometimes things happen to guys who dont use mccown tech stuff. not sayin there is a correlation, just happenstance that guys with MT products brakes dont fail on a downhill grade like guys with other brands.

You’d never put an MOV across an Ethernet data line, but this is power, and MOVs can take a punch. Purewave used to recommend a device I think the model number was PP1, I don’t know who made it, and it doesn’t appear to be sold anymore. But it had MOVs and maybe some other stuff. Also had a light you could see from the ground which was surprisingly useful. I don’t think it had an internal fuse. I’d probably put that at the bottom, and maybe not a second surge protector.

I don't know much about the device, but after several years of lightning seasons nothing had exploded. That device was actually chosen due to a physical space restriction and not because it was believed to be better. I had looked at the McCown Tech SS as well, but same space limitation applied as the Transtector. (I was mounting on the inside of a cabinet door, and there was a limit on thickness of the housing). Transtector is basically the name brand in this field though. You won't get fired for buying the Transtector.
