Is it possible to run the chain conditional first so I get the message reminding myself to reconnect the device?

You need to do 2 things:

• Turn the action validation off by setting the same condition on the last action and ticking the checkbox "disable action validation if conditions are not met" in the action condition dialog.
• At the top of the chain, use this custom action. Use the same condition, but change the condition value to empty string.
