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.

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

no battery backup but you will not lose any phone numbers that you want blocked.

I do not know for sure, but I believe it has electronic memory chips that hold what is stored in them even if there is no power.

It depends upon the number of devices that your unit is going to provide power to via its internal battery. Without that knowledge it is impossible to provide you with an answer. My unit states that it will provide approximately 30 minutes of battery backup power. During a power outage it would be supplying power via its internal battery to a notebook, a docking station, a monitor, a phone, a modem and router. Hope that helps.

Yes, it does have a battery backup. It works great, as i've turned the circuit off several times during our remodel and no power loss to the timer. All the times and programs remain correct.

I am unsure if there is a battery back up, I will check. We run ours from an AC adapter.

No, it does not. When the power does out, it turns off. When it comes back on, it goes to the setup you programed. If the power is out for a long time (not sure how long) it will reset the time and not record unless you have it programed to record always.

No Problem - there is a battery backup. Have never had o reprogram since we first set it up.

This radio does not have battery backup. If you have the radio set to get the time from the internet and you have wifi signal (or you are using Ethernet) the radio will automatically keep the time. If you unplug the radio or the electricity goes off, the radio will have to reset the time, date and so on. The radio will reboot and do it's setup thing when the power comes back on.

You don't need battery. The programs are protected by a rechageable battery. the screen is blank during the power outage.

No. A battery backup is less necessary than most people think and unless you live in an area with frequent/rolling blackouts I'd just get one of these and spare your wallet.

No, but in the event of a power outage, it stores the programming for later. (No need to re-program.)

No battery backup built in but it uses the battery from the the alarm system. It has retained my zwave configurations after being disconnected. Most of the alarm programming is retained on your alarm system. IP address and such is usually DHCP.

It does *not* have a battery backup. Some settings survive a power outage, but some do not. For example, the setting to *not* go into power saving mode is not preserved; the "standby" mode - you have to reset the "standby" power level whenever the power comes back on - to disable that feature is you set the "standby" power level to 0 (zero) watts. The option to turn off the PIR motion detection feature does keep its setting when the power is restored. I don't know what happens to other settings that I do not change from their default values.

Yes, it does. It has a battery backup (9v) to keep programmed numbers and the message stored during any power outage.

No, Plus, there is no place for a battery backup in this switch. If you lose power, it is out just like a conventional light switch. When the power comes back on, the switch should reconnect to the wifi.

No. It does not have battery backup. During a power outage, it will need to be manually disconnected to allow opening or closing of the garage door.
