Sometimes I have quick power outages, so quick, that my UPS does not detect it. Are there any devices out there capable of detecting any brief change in power?
#Monitor power outages that are too fast for a UPS?

My Ecolink Chime+Siren regularly reports power outages that my UPS's didn't notice. I do not, however, have the equipment to tell if it's detecting real issues on the socket it's on, or if it's giving false reports.

that sounds interesting

It's a speaker with a battery on Z-wave (acts as repeater), plugs right into an outlet. It has some ring tones/doorbell sounds, some siren/alarm sounds, and a few built-in phrases like "Front Door" or "Armed Away". It says a microsd card can be added with a couple hundred more sounds you record yourself. One of its alerts to Home Assistant is losing or gaining power.
It's supposed to run for 24 hours without wall power.

interesting. battery replaceable when it eventually dies? can you have HA play custom sounds through it?

No, battery is not replaceable officially to my knowledge. Any sound has to be prerecorded in one of ~200ish custom slots, but then you can play it.
