(Yeah, I know it's not "repair" but my favorite techie types are here.)

I'll be floating down a French river on a small barge in several weeks.
They'll provide 220v from a Hawker Siddely Generator.

I'll have a couple of expensive 110v devices that I intend to connect
through a step down transformer (not purchased yet). They implied that
the power might not be all that clean and they won't be responsible for
voltage fluctuations.

Would a surge protector and an appropriate transformer protect things
or should I be looking at a voltage regulator.. or maybe voltage
regulator/transformer combo?

I really don't want the "magic smoke" to escape from my stuff.
