Where we live, power goes out a lot.  “Like a-lot a-lot”.  The real problem is when it comes back on - or tries to come back on, rapid fire bursts, voltage issues, etc..  After the last outage and the loss of some equipment I had a need and the need turned into a design and the design turned into this…

Basically an Arduino Micro Pro, a relay and an LED.  When power comes on it waits 30 seconds before turning on the relay.  If power flips in the interim, no worries, the counter just resets.

Here are the printed parts for that project.

I used PLA and since this was a test I ran everything at .35 (you might notice some “issues” with the center top arc on the one bracket).  

Like my design, how about a cup of coffee?
