Smart Water Level Monitor, WiFi-Enabled, Text/Email Alerts, Indoor/Outdoor Detector, Battery Powered, Stainless Steel Float Sensor

I am using this to monitor low water levels in our garden pond during the winter when the water refill system is shut down. It sends a email and text so I can avoid the pump running dry. Works perfect so far. Easy WiFi connection and setup

This product is excellent for my needs. It has strong components, strong functionality, and great support. The water sensor can detect low OR high water levels and the water sensor is very high quality stainless. The lead wire from the water sensor to the circuit box is long enough for almost any application I could imagine. The unit uses replaceable, low cost batteries, and the functionality is well thought out - It will send you notifications (email and text) and high water, low water, low battery, etc. There is no ability to poll the unit in realtime, but I understand that adding this capability would come at the cost of much lower battery life. Unit was easy to connect to my wireless network. Great quality product.

I can’t say enough good things about this Risinglink Smart Waterlevel Monitor. Very well made. Easy to install and connect to my WiFi and apparently only uses battery when rising water set off an alert. I have this installed in the drain troughs of an outdoor recirculating fountain to detect if the drain is clogged and water is about to overflow. At 9:15pm tonight I got an alert about rising water. I went out and was able to clear the drain before the fountain overflowed. With automatic water refill the overflowing water would have continued to run all night if it wasn’t for this Risinglink device giving me push and email alerts. Thanks again for such a great product!

This is a great little device that comes in handy for detecting high water levels. I’ve used it for 3 months now. It’s easy to set up and use in about 10 minutes. I tested it a few times by dipping it in water and it almost instantly notifies me via text message and email that the water is too high. You can set up how you want to be notified during the installation process. When I remove it from the water it sends a text message and email telling me the alert has been canceled. So it works great but I only gave it 4 stars because the product would be better if it could be controlled by an app. With a phone app you could turn the unit on and off and you could see the battery life. As it is you just have to wait for it to run out of battery and test it just to know the battery is dead. I’d rather replace the battery when I know it’s down to 10%. Other than that it’s easy to set up and it does what it’s supposed to do.

Just what I was looking for. I have a 5000 gallon water tank that I share with a neighbor. And the tank is close to their house. This makes it tricky since the tank is far away. Using wifi works great (on my neighbor's network). And I love getting a text message & email when my tank goes below 80% full (that is where I set it). That being said this is a confusing type of device. Here are some things that might help when considering this: 1) This device will only tell you one thing. In my case it tells me when the water level drops below 80%. You can also reverse a metal ring so that instead of telling you when the water goes below a certain level, you can have it tell you if the water goes above a certain level. For instance you could put the sensor right at a "95% full" height inside your tank and this could tell you when the tank gets full. It will NOT tell you both things. So if you want to know both a low point AND a high point, you need two of these. One data point is good enough for my situation. 2) When you go to set it up I would suggest writing down the name and password for your wifi network and any phone numbers and emails you want to enter. I was not able to copy and paste these. Once you're on the setup screen you can't switch apps (on an iPhone anyway). 3) If you need to change the batteries you need to loosen 4 screws to get inside. These are on the front so you can leave the unit mounted in place. The whole front panel comes off (the screws can fall out so be careful ... maybe add washers inside to fix this). One nice thing: once you set up the device, changing batteries will not require you to re-enter settings. It remembers. 4) This relies on a reliable wifi connection. My neighbor's wifi stopped working a day after I set it up and they were out of town so I couldn't do anything about it. After a day or so I got a text message saying that there was a communication error and I should check the wifi connection. That is extremely helpful! Fyi ... once my neighbor got back and reset the modem and router it starting working again by itself. And has been working perfectly for over a month now. 5) Last thing: the sensor simply hangs down into the water tank. You need to suspend it one way or another to set the level that you want to monitor. There is a thick string that goes around the top of my water tank that holds up the liner. So I was able to simply loop the wire of this sensor around that string a few times and let it hang in the tank. I think they included tape to hold the wire in place although I found I didn't need it. Very happy.

Worked for a few months, then quit. I liked the first one I bought because it worked when installed, so bought another for our cabin. They've both quit working now after several months.

Works as expected. Received a text while on the road that water at home was low so I was able to hurry home and fix the problem before water pump ended up running dry. I did not find initial setup difficult. Thank you for this money saving product!!

A good solution to monitor my septic lift station if pump fails. Easy to install, just hang cable at depth you want alarm to trigger, without having to strap it down. Programing the module for the WIFI and alert emails did not go the way the instructions said. I got no green light as instructions said I would but it did connect and I was able to set up the alert email and SMS settings and tested it all okay. It's cheap insurance to have to prevent a backup into the house, as I have had several pumps and float switches fail and I hope this unit will let me know before it backs up.
