[Widget] Detect Power Outages

[vrgomes]

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and I have a Reef aquarium for about 3 year. You can see it here on my website:
ReefCentral

So after I presented my self I also bring something that I think can be usefull to all of us.

I'm posting here a little application that I made because of my Reef Aquarium and I thought that I could share that application with everyone.
So for our aquariums be perfect ok we need electricity. The problem is that everyone have power outages, so we must know when we have a power outage at home to be able to go there and fix for a solution.

There are systems that do that for huge amount of money, but people can't afford to pay those systems.
So I made this application that warn's you when a power outage occurred. And that can make the difference between life and dead of the Reef aquarium.
The application it's free! (there is also a HD version )

It's only need internet connection at home and an Android phone.
For example if you have internet at home you will be notified when that internet connection is lost, and if that happens that means that you have no electricity or you have no internet connection, In any case is a useful information!
It's not needed any computer connected to the internet for the connection be established, so we don’t spend energy.

My lights on....so I guess power is on

I would prefer a piece of hardware that plugs into the actual circuit(s) and draws an ip so I know if that circuit is out as my router is on a different circuit.

If you have any controllers or other networked devices on your reef then you could monitor that IP instead of the router ip.

not sure I'll partake on this. It always seems fishy (sorry for the pun) when people come on here and their first post is an advertisement. And then Nothing after that
