This will be the case with the next supply I will be using, for the
moment I have one on a breadboard without a battery backup and was
worrying about the resets.
Thank you all for your answers !

What about running the circuit off a battery supply that is charged with
your typical supply.  Then you don't have to worry about spikes per se,
and you have a backup system.
