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.
