    I'd recommend battery backup UPS (uninterruptable power supply) for the electronics. spikes and surges are bad of course, but under voltage can kill electronics just as quick is also a reality. the spike surge protector doesnt see something like that very well, even though voltage drop usually means a big increase in current draw trying to make up for it. a decent UPS can be got for about 100 bucks.
