What device protects system against lightning strikes but does not protect against Sags and brownouts?

It's true that a surge protector would protect against surges like those caused by lightning strikes but would do nothing to help with sags and brownouts. To address both high voltage (surges) and low voltage (brownouts) you would need an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). A UPS provides clean current by powering your computer from the battery while simultaneously charging the battery from the electrical supply.
