    I really like the prototype design. Pretty much what i was picturing in my head except what would you mount it to? I see the 4 corners have holes so im assuming it would go into something?

    It wouldn't need to be mounted to anything at all but I figured that if Someone had more than 1 a rack would be the best way to keep everything organized.

    I'll take three please.

    I really love this idea. If it could be done closer to my price range that's even better.

    I would consider $75-$100 for one of these very reasonable. Of course, I'm probably way off base, but you did ask.

    I think that expandable is a really important aspect. 4 probes to start and able to add more. That keeps the initial price point lower as well and allows future additions. It also allows a higher mark up on probes as well. The base unit is likely going to be quite a low margin but the probes could be fairly high.

    I agree. Plus by making everything modular if 1 part fails it can easily be replaced and the repair cost is less.

    Dont know if its too late for intput
    But somthing that has multiple probes would be neat, and then the housing unit could be placed outside the tank, which is convienent.
    Also, the app idea is beast, being able to check temp humidity and all that is cool. Now it just needs a camera and an app based video viewer lol
