This device is used to monitor GFCI or outlet power failure. It is powered by a USB charger, with an internal backup battery(included). It monitors the power 24/7 and sends out the alert through Wi-Fi. Only 2.4GHz WiFi is supported.

• If the power is normal, the device will be powered by the USB charger and the green LED will be ON.
  
  
• If there is a power failure, the power supply will be switched to the internal battery and the green LED will be OFF. At the same time, a power OFF alert will be sent out to you immediately.
  
  
• The 85db buzzer is enabled by default. When the power fails, the buzzer will sound up to 30 seconds before you press the black switch to mute it. The buzzer can be disabled during the device setup if you prefer not to hear the buzzer when power fails.
  
  
• Alert/notification via email is unlimited and free permanently.
  
  
• 2 cell phones can be registered to each device to receive alerts via text message. We pay for each text message to the cell carrier, and it should be reliable/quick. 300 free text messages come with the purchase, which can cover more than 5 years for most users, and can be renewed for free after 5 years. Only US/Canada phones are supported currently.
  
  
• The device cannot send out the power OFF alert (different from the device OFFLINE alert) if your WiFi network or internet service is also down during the power outage, for example when the whole house power outage. In this scenario, you may need a small Uninterruptible Power Supply(UPS) for your WiFi router to maintain WiFi connection and internet service, so that the device can still send you the power OFF alert.


• ENGINEERED IN THE USA + EASY SETUP: Engineered in the USA for reliability and supported by a dedicated US-based team. No hubs, apps, subscriptions, or monthly fees required. Simply connect to your Wi-Fi and start monitoring instantly. Risinglink delivers direct SMS text, email, and audible alerts without relying on third-party smart-home platforms.
• INSTANT POWER OUTAGE ALERTS: Detects power failures in as little as 3 seconds and immediately sends alerts. Even brief power interruptions are detected, helping you identify abnormal power conditions and take preventive action before they happen again. You will also receive an alert when power is restored.
• TRUE SMS TEXT MESSAGE ALERTS: Receive direct SMS text alerts, not just app push notifications that can be missed if apps are logged out or notifications are disabled. Supports up to 2 phone numbers and 4 email addresses, so multiple people can receive outage alerts at the same time.
• OPTIMIZED TEXT ALERTS: We believe in timely alerts. Unlike competitors who impose intervals or monthly caps on direct text alerts, Risinglink ensures you receive every text alert promptly. If your outlet experiences multiple trips in a short period, other systems might only send the initial text alerts, potentially delaying or missing the most critical last power outage alert. With Risinglink, there are no such hidden limitations, ensuring you stay fully informed.
• LOCAL AUDIBLE ALARM + LONG BACKUP BATTERY: An integrated 85 dB audible alarm sounds immediately during power outages, even without Wi-Fi, providing an additional layer of protection. The alarm can be disabled during setup if preferred. The pre-installed backup battery is designed to last over 5 years under typical usage, ensuring reliable monitoring.
• COMPREHENSIVE NOTIFICATIONS: Receive alerts not only for power outages and restorations, but also for low battery and device offline (Wi-Fi loss). Unlike some brands that only inform about power status, our device ensures you're never in the dark about battery health or device connectivity.
• 2.4GHz WIFI COMPATIBILITY: Supports 2.4GHz WiFi only. Most WiFi routers support 2.4GHz networks. To send alerts promptly after a power loss, the device requires a few seconds of active Wi-Fi and internet connection.
