Let's add that to the spell description.

Name: Livewire [Credit: Alex, Scott]
Range: Touch (to an outlet) Casting Time: 1 Round MP Cost: 6 Duration: 1 Round
You get a momentary glimpse through a device with a screen/display/camera that is connected to the electrical grid. You channel your energy through a nearby electrical socket. For best results: specify the device you are wanting to see out of - and if it's hooked up to the same electrical grid - you can have a very quick glance as though you were looking out through that device provided it has a screen, camera, etc. Otherwise, you may approximate a location and/or device type, but the spell may fail or give undesirable results at the GM's discretion. Spells like "Firewall" completely negate this spell. If the device in question is not plugged in or if there is a power outage, the spell fails (the GM may decide to instead let you see through the next closest device of the same type if one is available. Note that this means if the toaster you're trying to see through is unplugged, you may instead see through another toaster 2 blocks away). If the display/camera is covered up or obscured, it will block your vision either partially or entirely.

I'm wondering if we should add the ability to hear through the device as well if it has speakers/microphone? A toaster probably won't have one, but a television would have both, so you can get both audio and video. Or is that too much?

Might be a good offshoot of this spell. "And now, with sound!" or some such.

Offshoot sounds good.
Edit: heh heh. Sounds. I crack myself up.
