The easiest loss-of-power alarm is a wall wart connected to an alarm input on your controller.

I know I can get a Buss type circuit breaker type that trips , But could I find something similar that would auto reset . Most times they will trip due to a surge Etc . Can I just by a AC type Circuit Box and put in a 50 amp AC circuit Breaker and mount that box on the inside of the 4 Ft Rack , Question 3 what is the simplest way for some type of Notification When the Repeater has tripped over to Battery Power. Go easy on the answers and especially the comments And I don't want to hear any Locals in My area talking about Me on the air I will be listening Ha Ha Thanks Don KA9QJG
