    Using Connectsense to monitor security system

product installation was easy.  There should be a few examples of writing rules.

    Battery life is too short !!
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2014*

Unit DISCOUNTINUED.  DO NOT BUY!!.  It works with 5V adaptor however, if you intend to use with AA batteries, be prepared to change it every month.  I have been using this with batteries and had to change them almost every 4-5 weeks.  So if you are not home during battery change week, you may be in trouble.

    I wasted a lot of time setting them up
  

*by J***7 on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2015*

I purchased both the water sensor and dry contact sensor.  Once setup they worked relatively well, however I have a few complaints especially given the price:1. I wasted a lot of time setting them up, initially and a few other times when I changed my SSID. Basically, with my windows 7 machine I could not get it to work with the USB setup.  Wifi setup was not an option as I do not use Android or IOS device. Finally I got it to work using a Macbook via USB. Anyhow, it was a very poor and annoying setup experience.2. With my old modem/wifi router, the connection was constantly being lost - not very good for a water sensor that I rely on to constantly monitor water level. However after changing routers, it seemed to improve considerably.3. No rechargeable battery option. It would be better if these would have an option to recharge an internal batteries via usb power input so that it keeps working when the power goes out. However, I got around that by plugging my USB power adapter (powering the water sensor) into a UPS unit. I also power my wifi router off another UPS. The reason is that I use the water sensor with a sump pump and I want it to keep working when the power is off, I also have  a secondary battery powered sump pump.4. The water sensor will sometimes falsely report water contact based on humidity.
