Its actually a GFCI outlet that is popping. The main panel circuit breaker is doing fine.

yeah, so new house and they have put so many outlets and shared a lot of the circuits on common breakers. So the garage is tied into the kitchen which has the exhaust fan, the full refridge, lights. So some times when plugging in the dyson to vacuum and if freezer in the garage goes on and the fridge in the house and the vacuum, it pops the GFC in the circuit... Poorly designed house by KB...

Thanks guys. My Wife will be happy. No more spoiled food.

I have a freezer in the garage and it gets hot in there. From time to time the outlet the freezer is connected to trips and turns off the freezer. If I get the Insteon Plug in Module, plug that into the outlet and then the freezer into the Module, is there any way, I can get a notification when the power is gone? Can I send if a email if the device does not respond to a status? Thanks.

I have had a idea for a long time and now with iPhone OS 4 multi tasking, I think it is possible. Problem is I am not a iPhone developer. What I am thinking is could you not create a app that would accept you home location. Then it would give you options like execute program or scene when you come within a set proximity of your home address. You could use the google mapping feature to figure out current location versus home address... I know there are some challenges that need to be cleared like how to prevent it from executing multiple times while within range but that should not be rocket science. Would be nice that when I drive up to my house, the garage opens, the light turn on and so on.. Or when I am leaving, it ensures that my lights are ok, heating / cooling is set to a unoccupied setting or off... What does everyone else think?
