I purchased this surge protector on Amazon

This is the MidNite Solar SPD 600V surge protection device I installed to help protect my inverter/charge controller from surge or lightning-related voltage spikes. It’s straightforward to wire (red positive, black negative, green to earth ground) and the blue LEDs make it easy to confirm it’s operating.

Pros

+Simple three-wire hookup (red/black/green)
+Blue status LEDs make it easy to verify operation
+Helps protect expensive solar equipment from surges
+Mounts cleanly with a 1/2-inch threaded base

Cons

-Not cheap at around $110
-Install quality depends on having a good, short earth ground connection
