YoLink Smart Power Fail Alarm & Hub Kit, Smart Home Starter Kit with AC Power Outage Alert, LoRa Long-Range, Remote Monitoring, App Alerts, Text/SMS, Email Alerts, IFTTT

This Yolink power failure alarm is very easy to set up compared to other competitors products and works seamlessly with the hub. Functions are very configurable through the app for example the audible warning, push notifications and e mails.

We now have several Yolink devices. This power failure alarm/alert and several water leak detection devices. We use 2 hubs in two different buildings. I installed the power failure alarm as we have, in the past, had power failures during the late night and have slept several hours while everything was shut down. I don't like this. If the power goes off I want to know that some of our systems (internet, lights, freezers, refrigerator, AC/Heat) are down and also take some precaution for electrical surges when the power comes back up. We have had this device for a few months and during that time lost power and had the loud audible alarm wake us up and send us messages regarding the outage. (without power we get "offline" indications) Provides peace of mind. I like the devices we have used so far from Yolink. They seem to have good quality and function just as they are advertised.

I have a YoLink thermometer in my downstairs freezer. My wife had accidentally left the door slightly ajar. Sure enough at about 2am the Power Fail alarm started screaming and work me up. I checked my app, saw the issue and ran downstairs. Crisis averted. Marriage saved (ha ha). All of my YoLink products have been insanely easy to set up and have operated perfectly.

This unit pairs easy. Nearly seamlessly due to a very intuitive hub-unit interface. But why is there not an integrated plug? This requires the unit to be mounted separately on the wall, meaning another unnecessary hole. Not a deal breaker, just irritating. Also, interesting they put an audible alarm on this unit, but not the water sensors. Why? That said, these are very nice products. They work well and setup easily. Worthy investment.

Like everything else I’ve bought from YoLink, this device was a very quick and easy setup and works perfectly. It almost instantly gives a power fail alert. Just have to be sure that the hub and your wifi and router don’t lose power at the same time, or are equipped with battery backup. My only suggestion is a way to turn off the local alarm at the unit. It is overly loud and obnoxious. A plus in some uses but in my case I needed it silent so I had to take it apart to disconnect a wire.

I HAVE 4 OF THESE POWER ALARMS DEVICES. HAS LONG AS THEY ARE CONNECTED TO THE HUB AND YOU HAVE INTERNET THEY WORK VERY WELL. I ALWAYS GOT A NOTIFICATION IN MY EMAIL AND TEXT. ALSO IF THE INTERNET GO DOWN I GET AN ALERT THAT THE HUB IS OFF LINE, AND ANOTHER ALERT WHEN THE HUB IS BACK ONLINE. I ALSO HAVE THE WATER DETECTOR IN MY SAILBOAT BILGE COMPARTMENT IF THERE IS WATER RAISING IN THE BILGE I GET AN ALERT. TOTALLY AWESOME PRODUCT!!!!!

I wanted to love this item but I have 3 of them and only 1 works. I have 3 remote properties that seem to have a lot of power issues. Purchased the YoLink devices because I utilize other YoLink sensors. 2 of the devices do not detect outages and power restoral. YoLink sent a replacement but that one doesn’t work reliably either as it detects outages but doesn’t detect restoral until hours after the power is restored.

We were already using YoLink products for water leak detection so this was incredibly easy to add. We use it to guard a dedicated 20 amp circuit in our garage that has a large refrigerator plugged into it. We were getting nuisance trips and so replaced the GFI with a 20 amp Legrand and problem solved. Then we were paranoid about that refrigerator so we added this power outage alert device. The long range wireless worked perfectly. Big fan of YoLink.
