Title: Availability?

Any idea when the Mighty Hat will be available again? I'd want an assembled one if possible. Would it be simple to have it send a text when it loses a/c power? I have my router on a UPS. Doesn't last long but it's be long enough. Then if I was out of town I'd know and could get back to check freezers, sump pump, etc. thx

I think it's overdue for a redesign.
I'm just too caught up in other things right now.
So hoping to get to it soon.

Meanwhile, an alternative is the MightyBoost (https://lowpowerlab.com/shop/product/120) which has the "UPS" feature and can accept a Moteino to control that.

Ok. I understand. I think the mighty hat will serve me better. I'll hold out. How difficult would it be to have it send me a text (something like the sump pump alert does) when it loses a/c power?

If your router is still online (you got internet) then its no problem.

My router is on a UPS (only lasts maybe 10 min but that's enough to get out a message. I'll dig deeper once I get to that point. Thanks!
