As before, it sends notifications about power outages, monitors the temperature in your freezers, notifies about water leaks in your basement, smoke in your storage, gas leakage in your RV, break-in to your cottage, can reboot your cameras, servers, modems, routers... and more...

This looks like an awesome device - for instance if you are alerted of a power cut, you ring your power company. If no faults can be traced, you can bet someone has cut your power for evil reasons. Or maybe you go out a lot and forget to turn on your electric blanket. Send a text and you’ll come home to a nice warm bed. You can even control the lights when you’re away.

Excellent overall product. The plastic construction of the device is first class, sturdy plastic with perfect fit and finish. The instruction manual is expansive, 26 pages, which is welcome given many products come with no manuals today. Customer service at iSocket is very good as well, so this is a great product to solve a common problem of remote server or router reboot.

Joe, USA

After returning from a 10 day holiday to find the power out and the contents of the fridge and freezers ruined, I decided to look for some kind of alarm/alert product and came across iSocket. I was delighted with the service. Truly a quality product. Now if I get a text to say the power is off I can call my sister to investigate. Impressive!

Power outages have always been the main problem that iSocket addressed. So it has remained so far! "Forewarned is forearmed" was our motto since 2010. Sending you a prompt and reliable power outage notifications - this is what we do.

Longest power outage

The most prolonged nationwide power outage in Kenyan memory remained a mystery as the government-owned power company blamed a failure at Africa’s largest wind farm, which laid the responsibility on the power grid instead. Some of Kenya’s more than 50 million people, including in the capital, Nairobi, saw power return almost 24 hours after the massive outage
