A great way to know how long power was out.......in case you need to check items in the refrigerator. If CON is the opposite of PRO Then what is the opposite of Progress?

Plug into the same outlet, set the time and when the NT has the wrong time, if the alarm clock is blinking, which it should be, Gloriosky, Zero! the ac power is going away! Make sure it is actually using the same outlet. Use a plug strip if you have to. Outlets can be 'split-wired' so one is always powered and the other half is controlled by a switch. Or even different branches, altho I think that is against code! John C. (Not Garand) When I was young, I was Liberal. As I aged and wised up, I became Conservative.
