Controversial is an understatement.
When there was an IEEE journal paper (well reviewed) essentially saying
that they don't work, one of the manufacturers of such devices sued the
author and the IEEE (unsuccessfully).

The same manufacturer proudly proclaims "as used by NASA and the US Air
Force" when what really happened is that both bought them as test
articles, for tests which failed. There's a great picture of a lightning
bolt coming down from the sky, skipping the top of the tower and hitting
the "lightning eliminator" square in the middle of the panel.
