Power glitch

[mdlbear]

I went out to the garage a couple of days ago to charge a drill battery. No dice. Some further investigation showed that it wasn't the battery's fault, nor the charger -- it worked fine in the sewing room. So it must have been power in the garage. Still more investigation led to a tripped GFI outlet, which I reset.

And the freezer turned on.

Oops! I don't think anything was lost, but some items were noticably soft. So it must have been out for a day or two.

I'm going to have to install some kind of remote sensing alarm. Grump. But next time I might not get off so lightly.

Because all the outlets in the garage are on the same GFI-protected circuit.

Well, it's understandable in the workbench area, at least...
