I'm not sure how sensitive MH ballasts are to power fluctuations but I have seen dirty power issues cause all sorts of problems. It is a very difficult thing to track down as well. There is a device called a voltage recorder than is basically tracks the voltage over a 24 hour period to look for fluctuations/surges. Not something most people have laying around.

I am told surge protectors to very little to actually stop anything other than a very large surge. A UPS is supposed to be one of the better ways to filter your power.
The power is pretty good, I can't recall the last time the power went out. No lights flickering randomly etc.
