If you can't do a passive solution you're pretty much left with calling the power company and having them pull your meter while you install something.

Third in 5 months?!Had a 3 hour outage last night and both alarms worked as designed.
This was the third outage since getting the generator set up in January. It sure is nice having a set that runs our well and AC along with all the other comforts.
The bane of modern convenience. I intend on putting the batteries into the unit (after initial testing of course) only when the power is down, and otherwise storing them near the unit. I hate finding corroded batteries and a ruined device, no matter the price point.I installed one a couple years ago, but haven't had a long enough outage to take advantage of it.
There is a battery in there, don't forget to change it, like a smoke detector. Maybe a weak battery caused it not to work on the last outage.
Battery should be okay but going to check it today. Alarm was sounding when I turned the alarm on and power was off.I installed one a couple years ago, but haven't had a long enough outage to take advantage of it.

They welded the adjustment on mine. Looks like they touched it with a plastic melting tip to prevent adjustment by HO.There's also a sensitivity adjustment pot inside the unit. I adjusted mine a little to get it to be reliable. It's been a couple years, but as I remember, with the power on, I turned it until it just screeched, and then a little farther. Hearing protection required!
