I asked the next-door neighbour on return, but it would be really cool to have a gizmo to plug into the mains, then light an LED if the power goes out, e.g. in a storm. A more sophisticated version would also say how long the power was out, e.g. 1 LED = 1 hour, 2 LEDs 2 hours and so on. Obviously, it would need a battery to keep the LEDs lighted if the power went off. Does something like this exist already? (Yes, I've Googled!)
