What is it called where when the power goes out, the machine kicks in? Is there such a thing? I'm wondering if there's something to plug everything into the machine and that machine is plugged into the wall outlet so it can detect power outtage. So when I'm not at home, and the power goes out, everything that's hooked up to that outlet strip to the machine still gets electricity because that machine will now kick in because it detected that the power is out.
So a generator that is for indoor use, but it turns on automatically. I typed in backup generator and standby generator but it's like 5+ grand and it's to be permanently set up outdoor and powers the house in a blackout so that's not what I'm looking for. There must be a name for what I'm looking for that I can't think of. I just need a small basic portable one that powers a shop light, water filter, and heater/fan. At least the filter and heater or fan, the fish can survive without light.
I feel like I'm going to be made fun of for this post. I honestly don't know anything about this and hopefully be responded by nice helpful people.
Where I live, it can get 90+ and below 0 degree and the power goes out about half a dozen to a dozen times a year. It usually lasts a couple of hours which the fish would be fine but I'm worried one day it'll last longer than a day, maybe during a snowstorm. This past month the power have went out twice. One during a heavy thunderstorm and this past week due to the extreme heat.
I just realized I live in mother nature wrath zone of all elements. Hah.
