A storm strap is a storm strap ... pretty well all are fairly basic ... so not much difference.
One thing many people do incorrectly is to put the anchoring pegs in the wrong way round ... it may appear to be illogical, but ensure the hook is on the awning side of the peg, despite the fact that the peg is at an angle leaning away from the awning ... hope that makes sense ... it should when you have the kit!
Also, make sure the strap goes as near (or over) the knuckles where the poles join, and not over unsupported sections of the overhead poles.
To stop wind-flapping, make up a buffer to wrap round the strap at a couple of points mid way between the outer and centre overhead poles ... can be cloth or cardboard or anything really.
