Summary
I got the Watermeter gateway system ready in a couple of minutes, because I already use MQTT.
Simple and effective measuring, that is the goal of the Watermeter Gateway from Connectix and they succeeded.
The few steps in the Dutch manual are easy to read and understand. But the support on the site is also great.
The manuals that I used:
Pros
- Easy installation
- Easy configuration
- Affordable
- WIFI
- MQTT (for Home Assistant)
- API (Domoticz)
- Homey App
- Great (firmware) support
Cons
- Velcro works perfect but a fixed plastic 3d print would be a nice upgrade.
- Only a manual in Dutch available (but easy to translate).
