It promises instant notifications when the power goes out and when it comes back on, down to the neighborhood. It&#8217;s true that most power companies offer alerts, but at least for mine, alerts can be delayed. My outage notifications come within 10 minutes, but my restoration alerts sometimes come more than an hour after the lights are back on. When you combine that with the fact that not every provider offers alerts, you can see some value in Ting&#8217;s alerts. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"c-shortcodeImage u-clearfix c-shortcodeImage-large\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_imageContainer\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_image\"><picture class=\"c-cmsImage\"><!----> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/this-new-app-lets-you-easily-track-power-outages-nearby-and-its-free\/\" alt=\"ting-power-outage\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" fetchpriority=\"low\"><\/picture><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall u-block\">Artie Beaty\/ZDNET<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>How Ting&#8217;s power outage map works<\/h2>\n<p>Since the map is based on Ting devices, it might not be 100% accurate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/home-and-office\/energy\/unplugging-these-7-household-devices-saved-me-200-a-year-in-electricity\/\"><strong>Unplugging these 7 household devices saved me $200 a year in electricity<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When I downloaded the app for myself, Ting alerted me that the closest power outage was 162 miles away &#8212; two states and about a three-hour drive.
