Hi Almot,
Well, some where in between?
I found out that because of the way I wired the Sola Basic, I can simply pop in a surge protector intended for a 15 amp outlet, and get some surge protection for everything down stream.
I do have one outlet that is in parallel to the input to the Sola so that is what I will use. It's not perfect--but it's better than a stick in your eye. It should offer the same or equal surge protection compared to the "big two", and I have little interest in their other features as I still manually check all outlets before I plug in.
Interestingly I was using such a device for the 120 volt fridge outlet and some time this spring it has finished its life cycle. So I have connected the replacement for the fridge unit to the Sola.
I did start a thread about that here:

So, Don, what's the decision - just using Sola and heck with that expensive surge?
