I also prefer the Polyphaser products, but just to give you another
alternative, see the ICE products:

And for those of us who still like to homebrew and/or save some money,
if you look at the I.C.E. datasheet, it pretty much spells out what
device they are using.  A MOV (metal oxide varistor) with 50VAC,
66VDC, 4.5KA peak current.  A quick look at Digikey shows a similar
MOV for $4.23 for quantity 10.  See

 I purchased a ton of these along with an old fashioned barrier
terminal strip, connected one end of the MOV to the barrier strip, the
other end to a buss bar connected to station ground (my metal bulkhead
station entrance) via a very short lead.
