Will this unit automatically restart after a power failure? (Some electronic models don't)

I do not think so. I know when I turn it back on the pump needs to be restarted.

The unit from 2008 did not. The new ones might, but I'm not considering them, since I expect more life from my unit.

Yes,just make sure the power button is on.It's the crescent shaped one at the top of your unit with the power icon.

I cannot say for sure but I think that anytime the power is lost the units would shut off and would manually have to be turned on. To be sure I would call Manufacturer Sorry I couldn't help.

It sure will. When power is restored back to the unit after losing battery power it will let you know that power has been reestablished. Thanks for asking!

I have been fortunate enough not to have the surge protector do it's intended job. I just looked at the unit and noticed that it does not have a reset, test like a ground fault circuit interrupter. I have a hunch that if the alarm is triggered un-plugging and re-plugging the unit will reset it. The device is cheap enough to protect your expensive appliances, I would have no problem buying another one if there was a problem with the actual device.Hope this helps.JerryO

If the power goes out, it has to be restarted.Very annoying and one reason I do not recommend this charger.

This is a great heater. We haven't had a power outage this winter - so am unable to answer your question. However, I'm sure it would restart automatically & keep its setting. A good question for the manufacturer.

I just contacted Capstone and they say YES power failure feature will work if unit set to night light low or high setting.

Yes, it restarts after a minute or two pause if the power is interrupted. I think the pause is to reset the condenser, like what a refrigerator has. Those are somewhat touchy in power outages.

Yes, the last setting prior to powering off the unit is the "default" upon start up.

I actually have the same issue. I have to power cycle it twice a month at least. I had a previous model (not the AC model) that worked for over a year without a power cycle. I was thinking of making use of the ability to schedule a reboot weekly...but I don't think it should be happening this often.

This model will not have an issue with power failures. Once you have the dial set . It will turn back on and keep running. The models wiith power buttons would not work

You can ask the company directly at http://www.dakotaalert.com/contact.php. but I believe it could not go into automatically automatically. You would have to unplug the A/C adapter and plug in some sort of battery pack that they may or may not make. If you are talking about short power failures, you could keep the A/C adapter plugged into a computer-type Uninterruptible Power Supply.My unit failed not long after I got it and they replaced the circuit board in the transmitter. That was two years ago.Mine will occasionally miss a vehicle but not often.

On my unit if the power plug gets pulled when it is on it comes back on. So if the unit is own a power strip and the power strip gets turned off the unit will power back up. I keep my unit on my desk but keep it powered off unless I need to use it.

Yes but you should consider purchasing a solenoid kit that drains the unit in the event of a power failure.
