    I used one of these on my TV and antenna. Amazon has them for about 50 bucks.

    APC Power Protection ATX 120 Power Supply P8V

    And I used a Midnite SPD on my PV line model MNSPD-300-DC

    HAM radio folks have lots of information on protecting against lighting strikes... Search for their comments/information:

    And some pretty detailed articles:
