A while back, I asked if anyone knew of an commercially available alarm that would sound if the mains supply to the caravan failed, as the only indication in our van is the tiny LED on the fridge flashing. Nobody did and I couldn't find one via google, so after a bit of research, I made my own.

Here are the details if anyone else is interested.

    We plug a night light into a spare 240v socket. If it's out, there's no lekky.

    Simple and effective 'MG' smile, nice one. Ideal for those who don't watch their TV 24 hours a day.
