I am an electrician, among other things...

Check with your local power company. They may offer a unit for a monthly fee. There is no huge cash outlay on your part and if it ever gets fried, it's their problem.

Correction: The units offered by the power companies are typically "surge protectors" and will not help with brownouts. You need a line conditioner. Check with Home Depot Commercial Services or a local electrician.
