Water Rat (Trough and Tank Sensor) USA
Farmo's Water Rat (patent pending) is the world's easiest to set up tank and trough water sensor on the market. Throw it in a trough, or tether it to a tank, and start getting low water level alerts on your phone or computer right away. When it's floating in a trough, cattle will inspect the Water Rat then quickly leave it alone once they realise they can't push on it (and break it) like a fixed object.

Data is sent via NB-IoT which is the long-range, low-cost version of 4G for IoT devices.The signal for NB-IoT travels further than 3G/4G, so if your mobile phone has any reception on site, then NB-IoT devices will work there. Additionally, NB-IoT transmits on a lower frequency than cellular mobile so penetration through buildings and cement tanks is better.
