Keep this in mind. If you have a power shortage and one of your powered
devices (ie motion detector) is the furthest away from the power source
(ie resistance-wise) it is that detector that is going to "drop out"
first.

OR .... if the device is drawing or requires the most current, it will
also, be among the first to "drop out".
