Following a hunch, the author discovered (or re-discovered?) that all plants carry an electric charge relative to the ground. This charge is more or less constant regardless of the size of the plant - a kind of "background voltage" in nature.

This is a very basic alarm designed to let you know when the electricity supply fails. The alarm is powered from a battery which uses no current consumption at all in standby, a battery should therefore last its full shelf life.

This under voltage circuit may be used as an add-on to an existing power supply or standalone. The circuit draws power from an existing power supply, which may be up to 36 Vdc. Once voltage drops below a preset level the output swings high. A CA3140 MOSFET op-amp is used as a comparator, the output can drive loads of up to 10mA so can drive a low current LED directly. Additional buffering is required for higher loads.
