Are programmed numbers remembered even after power outage, or will they need reprogrammed?

Works on power supplied by the phone company. Not sure how long the numbers are held in memory if the phone was disconnected from the phone line. Remembers at least for a few minutes when moved from one outlet to the next.

I believe they are since I have not had to reprogram the phone since I received it except when a number changed. The phone has worked flawlessly, and mom now makes calls, once in an emergency. The volume seems a little louder than common phones which is a good benefit for older adults.

This timer has a built-in battery. It will retain it's settings after a power outage.

You must reprogram each time it's used. I wish it DID have that function; if it does, I sure haven't found how to implement it.

No it does not forget during a power outage .The memory only holds a couple of hundred phone numbers . After a year or two the call blockers phone number memory fills up and the phone starts ringing again..You can not add new phone pests any more.Like during the weeks before election time. Dag Nab it !Had to answer the phone 5 times today people wanting me to vote for them.I want a automatic dialer zapping machine that can smoke a automatic dialer with the push of a button.

Maybe. It retains the programming for a period of time after you remove power. I never found out how long though.

I bought six of these and I didnot have to reprogram them when the light when out. Now, the light went out for 5-10 minutes. I would say that it have an internal back up battery or memory. I just haven't been able to test it with out any power for longer than 5-10 min. I hope this help. I really like them. They look cool too.

Yes. They will work until changed again. Whether power goes out or you change the batteries the codes will work.

Below is what the tech specs say about loss of power. There is no replaceable battery that I see. I suspect it the local time is saved via a capacitor type back up and the other settings are stored permananetly any time you set them. I have only reset mine once and that was because I wanted the light to come on later because of holiday deco's on the porch.Power outage: The screen is blank. Only the time must be set if the outage lasts more than 4 hours; all other settings and programs are permanently saved.

As with any mechanical timer, the real time (clock) has to be reset after a power outage. Once that is done, all of the ON and OFF settings will be as they were before the outage.

It maintains the last programmed settings if the power to the unit is disconnected. So, no reprogramming is needed.

I have never had to reprogram it since I bought it. During the power outages or glitches it stays in whatever state it was in. It is much more stable than the X-10 devices I had which were prone to burn out or flickering during a power transient.

Hello Shaun, Yes the Receiver will remember your settings after a power outage. In fact the receiver has several memory settings for your configuration. I have no complaints about Pioneer SC 68. Thanks Gene

Yes it does "remember" most settings. After a power failure, all settings remain except the date and time.

No reprogramming that I'm aware of. I've had 2 power failures since my purchase. Once power was restored everything functioned normally.

Tony - It doesn't just switch on and off. It is a very fast up or down fade that only takes a second or two. As for the power outage, I've never had to reprogram one because the power went out but I suppose it would depend on how long the power was off. Programming is so easy though... it just involves pushing the up or down buttons to get the right light level you want... then pushing the "set" button and you're done. There are small LEDs on the unit that will show you the level you're at. Then, every time you turn it on with the "set" button, it will go to that preset level. If you decide you want it higher or lower light level it's super easy to change.... just push the button until the lighting is where you want it, press the "set" button until the LED flashes if you want to keep it... and you're done . An afterthought: When it dims down it does go to full dark.... not just a low illumination.

There is no battery backup, however the programming is retained when there is a power outage and when the unit is disconnected.

the new one I bought was programmed by a special machine at my local Meineke. I do believe it does need to be reprogrammed by someone.
