Firewire Port Isolator

I have read of some incidents where the firewire ports of DBs were damaged due to power surges and cost quite a penny to fix.
I shoot tethered 99 percent of the time. Would it be advisably to get a port isolator? What are the pros and cons other that you will have to power the back using batteries?
Like to hear from those using one and sorry if this has been asked before.
