Power Failure Detector with Text Message and Email Alerts, Sends SMS Power Outage Alert and Power Restoration to Two Phones

The Power Failure Detector from MySpool is a smart device that sends text message and email alerts when power goes out and when it's restored, allowing you to stay informed even when away from home or business. Configured to work independently with your Wi-Fi network, the detector can send notifications to two phone numbers without any fees or subscription costs. This is the original power outage alert system: This device, built by Bell Labs engineers to protect their homes, notifies of power outages.

• Be alerted when power goes out: MySpool Power Failure Detector uses Wi-Fi to send text messages, email or push alerts when power goes off or comes back on
• Name each device and send notifications to identify the power outlet affected
• Each MySpool Power Failure Detector is independent; no hub is required
• WiFi access during power outage is required, please check before ordering
• No fees or subscription costs

  

Be alerted away from home or business 
MySpool Power Failure Detector is a smart device that sends an alert when power failure is detected.  An alert is also sent when power comes back on. That alert is a message, either via email or text, or both.  Power Failure Detector is configured to use your WiFi (see Important Note below). The setup takes a few minutes with a smart phone or a laptop.

 

No Hub Required 
Each Power Failure Detector works independently with your Wi-Fi network. Multiple devices can be placed in different locations throughout your home or business. Your notifications will include your text for each device that you specify in the device configuration.

 

No Fees 
There are no fees for using MySpool Power Failure Detector for any notifications. Power Failure Detector purchased on MySpool.com comes with support for 1 telephone number and up to 5 email addresses for alert notifications. To add more telephone numbers without fees, see these directions.

 

Flexible design 
MySpool Power Failure Detector comes with an extra long 6 foot power cord connected to an enclosure with a transmitter. Power Failure Alert will ignore short duration power fluctuations of less than 2 seconds so that no unnecessary notifications are sent. Note that since no device is permitted to send more than 1 alert per minute, your POWER ON notification may be delayed by up to 1 minute if power comes back on immediately. Each device requires 3 AAA batteries, included. The batteries should last 5 years or more assuming average power outages and fluctuations.

 

Important Note: one requirement for the Power Failure Detector deployment is that a WiFi network is available when A/C power outlet being monitored loses power. A good example is a UPS backed WiFi router which Power Failure Alert uses to access MySpool cloud servers.
