It is inadvertently triggering the failsafe partition switch back. Your other partition must still contain the OEM firmware.
You can do a triple power flip to switch it back and be back onto Gargoyle.

The proper solution is fixing your power issues.
A pretty risky alternative is to disable the failsafe capability. That would leave you in pretty bad shape if something went wrong and you’d need to use serial to recover it.

Where i live there are frequent power outages, 1-3 a month,
Outages at that frequency are ultimately likely to corrupt any device using fairly simple flash write management strategies (as would be used by most domestic class routers and anything using USB mounted file systems) - as @Lantis noted out you really need to address the power issues.

What sort of duration are the outages? Using a UPS that can be monitored so that the router can do a controlled shutdown before the battery reserve is exhausted might be worth the effort - see e.g. NUT on OpenWrt noting however that Gargoyle doesn't have any direct support for this. There are also "mini" UPSes available that could carry the load of a single router for relatively short periods, though they lack monitoring capability.
