"Your probably too young to remember the "cable weather channel" same thing but with music."

I have a REALLY cheap camera/microphone from radio shack mounted outside of my cableTV Head-end. It just puts video on channel 32 to fill a void I have in my lineup. The camera looks at a 2 lane highway about 100 feet away and just films the occasional car going by with a light whhooooosshhh sound.

My wife and I call it tweaker-vision. Every time I turn it off to test a new channel or whatever we get 15 calls from our tweaker customers asking us why the channel is off the air!!!

the most inexpensive is in your trash pile, a power pinger, or CB3 radio, plug it in on the line side of the UPS and just ping it every minute and you will know when you are on battery. Conversely for a generator. also a camera facing a set of gages, voltage, line, generator, oil pressure, temp, etc. Your probably too young to remember the "cable weather channel" same thing but with music.

We've recently installed generators at several sites, but have not yet found an affordable solution for monitoring them. Does anyone know of a simple product that will enable me to monitor these things? Everything I've found is super expensive. All I really need, is a simple device that can be wired into the alarm contacts on the transfer switch. I'm not (yet) concerned about monitoring other metrics.

Thanks,
