> If there is a power outage while I am at work, I can find out when it started and how long it lasted from the security system logs...

(Later replaced with en ESP8266 and temperature sensor that takes a reading every minute and uploads to my website). Is there anything the ESP8266 can't do?? (I also have some of these - Wemos D1 minis) spread around my place for temperature monitoring and general geekery)
