Power-Failure Alarm (plug-in)
A power-failure alarm: a plug that sits in the socket next to the fridge and sounds a siren when the power goes off, so an outage overnight cannot pass unnoticed. Wi-Fi models also message your phone.

What it’s for
A fridge that lost power at 2 a.m. is silent and cold-looking by 7. This is the cheap insurance that tells you it happened, so you know whether the vials spent five minutes or five hours warm.
What to check in the listing
Plug it into the same socket strip as the fridge, not a different circuit. The siren-only ones are enough if someone is usually home; if you travel, pay the extra for a Wi-Fi model that sends a phone alert. Pair it with the Wi-Fi thermometer and the fridge can't fail quietly.
