ECOWITTWN34BS Soil Temperature Sensor, Waterproof Soil Tester Digital with LCD Display, 11.8 inch Temperature Probe Sensor for Garden, Farm, Lawn, Indoor and Outdoor Use

This company makes great little sensors that work over surprising distances. The graphing interface that's available online is actually really useful. I will absolutely be installing more of these in the futureI will absolutely be installing more of these in the future.

We used the soil temperature sensor to help us determine when to schedule spring transplanting. It worked well.

This product was the top result for "soil moisture". Shame on me for not getting the right model. If you want soil MOISTURE readings, then go with Ecowitt's WH51 model (which I have since ordered multiple). This WN34BS model only tells me the temperature of the soil which is boring.

just put the battery in and the software picked up the unit. Then stuck it in the backyard and have had no problems with it.

Works as expected.

I like the automatic pairing of the sensor with the gateway. I use this soil temperature sensor to see soil temperature readings. Soil temperature and soil humidity provide guidance for grass or crop status. This relates to determination of red flag warnings for fire weather watches. I do not like the documentation. The documentation is unclear and incomplete. It seems like the document provided on their web site is for code written in C, C++, or possibly even Java. The gateway is very hard to access, and even if you are very experienced programmer it is very likely you will need to contact support. You might even need to do a review stating facts they to not like to get their attention to actually get support to provide meaningful help. I would like it if they provided some code examples in the most popular programming languages like 1) C, 2) Java, or others. If you already know C and have used telnet before then you should be able to figure out how to use the gateway.

I use it to keep track of the temperature of my compost to make adjustments to the content. The range is great and it’s been working reliably. It’s also relatively accurate and I’ll be adding more of these to me sensor collection.

I had been looking for a digital, wireless, soul temp thermometer that would report its monitoring to my phone. Most options I looked into were $300 plus and this soil temp thermometer paired with its wireless hub ran about $60. So far so good - but I’m curious how it will hold up in the elements this year…. We will see!

Erstmal, Verbinden mit der Hauptstation ohne weiteres Zutun und Problemlos. Batterie hält jetzt schon seit einem Monat ohne messbare Schwächen zu zeigen. Mein Thema ist, ich habe eine Wasserleitung bei 50cm Tiefe und will gewarnt werden wenn es unter 3 Grad geht...die Sonde ist ca. 40cm lang...kann man kompensieren in dem man den Sensor leicht eingräb und mit einem KG Rohr "einhaust". Dann geht sogar der Funk grad noch. Sonst sehr zuverlässig. Also Top für den Einsatzzweck.
