Almot,
The Sola bucks down about ten volts. Surge could be 20,000 volts.
The sola is fast at switching modes but true surge protection needs to be at the nanosecond level. I'm certain the Sola is NOT that fast.
Ok, got it.
Stupid question: those ubiquitous $6 "spike-surge-guard-suppressor" - whatever sellers might call it - rated to say, 900 Joule, 15A - how big of a surge or spike could it handle?
(Well, probably not a "spike" since it has no independent ground and thus, according to Mr Wiz, won't handle spike).
