Mike:
I've had an ICE model 309 for just about 9 years now. It's been outside
all that time and, other than the label getting faded, it looks as good
as new. I have it attached to a 64 ft. doublet with ladder line and
have put up to 100 watts through it many times, but not since I finished
my K2 (hi). I still disconnect all antennas from my rigs unless I'm
operating, but the ICE helps prevent static buildup, even when there are
no storms in the vicinity. Don't know how well it would protect if I
ever had a direct hit, but you can say that about most lightning
suppressors. I also don't know anything about the Cerbik doublet but I
am satisfied with my ICE lightning arrestor with my application.

In a painfully slow, round-about way, I'm getting a Cebik 44' doublet

lightning arrestors

I'm familiar with PolyPhaser products, too, but the ICE equipment
sounds well-built & good for the job, too.
