Just noticed this...

I've used wireless leak alarms for years, but this is a new one to me. Anyone picked one of these up yet?

Interesting device for sure. I use a controller, so I'd probably just buy the leak detector that works with it. However, I could see this being a good option for those without controllers.

There are a great many reefers without controllers, or with more primitive controllers that don't have a way to send a remote alarm. I'm one of them... I have a reefkeeper, but it's not internet connected, so the best it can do is an audible alarm. Fine if you're home... Since I work from home, and my wife doesn't work outside the home, there's almost always someone here. I'm OK with an audible alarm... I have been using cheap battery powered water alarms for years. Work fine for me.

This thing could provide a whole lot of security, at what I feel is a fairly reasonable price, to a vast number of reefers.

But... I've never seen one in person, don't know how difficult they are to set up, don't know about battery life, etc... I'd love to hear from someone who actually owns one.
