Hello everyone,
I apologize if my post isn't in the appropriate forum category.
In the last three months, I've gained a wealth of knowledge from this forum. The people here are fantastic, sharing tons of valuable information. While I'm still relatively new and don't have much to contribute yet, I'm eager to learn more.
Living in Colorado means being prepared for rapid weather changes. Even with a clear sky forecast, I worry about rain damaging my gear in the middle of the night.
Recently, I found Govee's WIFI water sensors for my home. They've been like a cheap insurance policy, preventing major damage twice already and saving me a lot of money and headaches.
With my concerns about rain affecting my telescope at night, I've started using one of these sensors regularly. They're super sensitive to water and immediately alert my phone at the slightest hint of moisture. Plus, they have a built-in alarm that's loud enough to be heard from inside my house.
While I'm not sure if this information is relevant to everyone, I think it's worth sharing as my two cents back to the community. Hopefully, it can be helpful to others dealing with similar worries.
This is the system I have: https://amzn.to/4abrwSd
They have other packages: https://amzn.to/4bvHbwR
Cheers!
