    Hey there Forumites

    I thought to share my digital temperature monitoring setup here, and find out how others do it?

    I have temperature probes in all my tanks which are networked with a Netbotz system.
    Current tank temperatures can be accessed online from anywhere.

    I also have temperature probes for ambient readings inside and outside the house.

    All this data can be output as a graph, like so:

    And so

    With this, I have also set up alerts (push notifications and emails using Pushover) so that if a tank temperature goes out of the specified min or max range (23-29 degrees Celsius), I am alerted like so:

    From the graphs however, you can see that the tanks stay consistently between 25 and 27 degrees Celsius.
    I have been saved by this system when the water heating system failed and I was alerted.

    How do you monitor your tank temperature? Anyone got a similar system?

    Nice. I’ve considered using sonoff th devices. I have a few normal sonoff as timers for lights, co2 etc but I have grandiose plans for auto water changes and integration into the irrigation system
