Do this for each of you modules and see how consistent they are...

Hey, you're jerking my chain aren't ya? I'm 82 years old and you're suggesting I spend my remaining precious time waiting and watching for some cockamamie blue indicator light to go out?
Seriously, if I could figure out some way of employing a timer device to detect the shutdown, I would do what you suggest.
