Finnick, buggy, works occasionally. Costs $10 like many other options

Install this at home before moving to a remote RV. There was an error. The app (which has tried both iPad and Android) randomly says it can't connect and assumes I'm connected to a VPN or otherwise disconnected. You have to re-login almost every time you use the app. Other complaints I could live with if it were at least reliable: No indication of when the battery readings were taken ie if it's disabled - was it 5 minutes ago or 5 hours ago? When unplugged (which it seems to be most of the…

Worked for me! suitable for tools and equipment

It works well and is as advertised. For me the setup was as advertised but there are a few steps. At least on Revain I could only find 2 devices that could show battery level wirelessly from anywhere for around $20. "Warns the user when the battery needs to be charged or replaced." You can check but not "warn". Maybe I need the battery to run out. However, it would be nice if an "alarm" volt could be set (mine is 12.4v). Or better warning at 12.5 V (chirp) and alarm at 12.4 V (alarm). By…

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • Functionality

Not working best in Tools and Equipment yet

Downloaded all three Schumacher apps, went through the install on one and in the settings it said there was a wi-fi signal in the settings device is it didn't (it blinked). Went to the last app and tried to set up and create an account and it would require info but wouldn't use the password phase by default so the device wouldn't add (as shown on YouTube). I tried calling them (only saw the number in the questions - couldn't find the website) and they were closed on Saturday. Good luck with it.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Having trouble

NOT READY FOR PRIME TIME! LOSS OF TIME AND MONEY!

I am a broadcast engineer by trade. I have set up many mesh WiFi networks and repeaters in my time. So when I read about other people having trouble connecting to the wifi, I just assumed it was user issues. HAD NOT. This thing is a hot mess. 1. It takes a long time to set up the WiFi interface, there are login errors everywhere, and it is extremely unstable. Once the power is off (ie the battery is disconnected or dead) you're back where you started. Serious. 3. The interface is inaccurate. I…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Slightly dented

SA1345 junk, read reviews first

Wanted to control the charge from my solar to my rustic gate opener battery, the battery also powers the wifi hotspot and the hotspot controls the bell. This Schu link won't connect after many tries, the app keeps asking me to enter the device id even if it is entered, when you go into the device settings and enter the password it immediately tells you "device has Hotspot started, stopped". I set up my home with all kinds of smart devices. I'm not new to setting up devices, but it's not worth…

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • There are new competitors

Use with a solar system

I needed a way to control the voltage of my 100Ah AGM battery connected to a charge controller and a 100W solar panel, now I can by do from my mobile phone . READ THE INSTALLATION MANUAL several times, otherwise you will have problems like me. I wanted to cancel the installation. I had to uninstall the app 3 times because I didn't get a confirmation email and couldn't set up WiFi. You should follow the instructions in order and then check your junk mail folder for a reply email. Now when I use…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Some problems

Here is the best installation sequence to fix confusing/poor installation instructions. 1) Download application, open it. Do not connect the monitor to a power source. 2) Create a new account or log into an existing one. 3) When the tutorial is opened in a web browser, it doesn't work. Go back to the Shulink+ app and read the tutorial4) Confirm the email address of the new account5) Go to the Shulink+ app, open Menu->Add Monitor. Register your monitor with S/N and PW on the small business…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • I am silent
