Easy to set up and works as it should

After a problem with the stove last month when I wasn't sure if I was going to return from work to a frosty house with a broken pipe or not I did started looking for remote monitoring devices. I learned so much, I was overwhelmed. The cheap ones were very, very cheap. According to reviewers, the reliability was not the highest. This one was halfway there and came with its own hub which I figured would make all the difference. As with many of these sensors, you download the app (in this case the Mocreo sensor), plug in the hub, then connect the sensors to the hub via 2.4 WiFi and you're done. And it really was that easy. The instructions were clear and well written. Everything fell into place the first time. In a matter of minutes I named each of the sensors and the application collected data from them. I put one in the same room as my thermostat for my oven and one in my freezer as at least three people have told me in the last month that they lost everything in their freezer when a new kitten partially unplugged the cord from the freezer pulled. Wall or a child accidentally turned off the switch that controlled the power supply. When a temperature outside of the set range is registered, a toast notification appears in the app, a push notification is sent to my phone and I receive an email. The same applies when the temperature returns to the normal range. You can turn each of these options on or off, but I like that they give you three ways to get information. The hub also beeps loudly, so you'll know right away when you're home that something's wrong, even when you're away from your phone. graphical form by hours, days, weeks, months, etc. and the information can be exported. I have no idea how long the sensor's battery will last. They charged super fast, although one of them only charged to 95% and no more and I don't know why. I want to get another one for the fridge. He's almost twenty years old and I expect he'll die one day. With a sensor, I know if the temperature starts to fluctuate to an unsafe level. So far I'm happy with the results. This is an easy to set up product that gives you peace of mind for less than a hundred dollars and is definitely worth it. Update: I emailed the company about a battery issue. Received a reply within twenty minutes, also on Sunday. After several messages back and forth we resolved the issue. So impressed with the support you received from this company.
