Simplified Power Failure Detector with Text and Email Alerts

MySpool Power Failure Alert is a smart device that sends notifications when a power failure is detected, as well as when power is restored. These alerts can be delivered via email, text message, or both, depending on the user's preferences. The device is configured to utilize the user's existing WiFi network, and the setup process can be completed in a matter of minutes using a smartphone or laptop.

One of the key features of the Power Failure Alert is that it operates independently, with no need for a central hub. Multiple devices can be placed throughout a home or business, each providing its own set of customizable notifications. Users can specify the text that accompanies the alerts for each device, making it easier to identify the location of the power outage, such as "freezer alarm" or "garage GFI power out."

There are no fees or subscription costs associated with the use of the Power Failure Alert. Users can add up to five telephone numbers and email addresses to receive notifications free of charge. Additionally, a complimentary Central Monitoring service is included, providing further peace of mind.

The smart design of the Power Failure Alert helps to prevent unnecessary notifications by ignoring short-duration power fluctuations of a few seconds or less. However, it's important to note that due to the device's one-alert-per-minute limitation, the "power on" notification may be delayed by up to one minute if power is restored immediately. Each device requires three AAA batteries, which are included and are expected to last for five years or more, based on average power outages and fluctuations.

One key requirement for the Power Failure Alert deployment is the availability of a WiFi network when the monitored AC power outlet loses power. A UPS-backed WiFi router is an ideal example, as the Power Failure Alert can use it to access the MySpool cloud servers.

Currently, MySpool products are supported only in the United States and Canada. However, the company's robust and dependable industrial-strength cloud infrastructure provides support for both single and multi-device consumer and commercial deployments, which can be managed through a secure web portal or mobile app, regardless of geographical location.

Setting up the Power Failure Alert is a straightforward process: 1. Connect the device to the WiFi network. 2. Create an account on the MySpool website or log in to an existing account. 3. Confirm the email subscription to receive alert notifications.

Once these steps are completed, users can trigger an alert by unplugging the device and receive an email notification. Additional settings, such as phone numbers and message preferences, can be adjusted at any time through the MySpool website or mobile app.
