Gaswatch keeps an eye on the tank

While charcoal grilling has a throng of devotees, firing up some food with propane also has its share of enthusiasts. If you are one who enjoys grilling with a tank GasWatch, a Bluetooth-enabled digital propane level indicator is a necessity.

Along with Bluetooth technology to connect to your smartphone, there is a GasWatch app that will display cook time and the percentage of gas remaining and alert you to the propane levels.

pHin reinvents pool care

Correctly monitoring and measuring pool chemicals is required for safe swimming. Although you routinely check chemical levels by dipping test strips into the pool water, using pHin, a Wi-Fi-enabled smart care monitor, testing your pool’s chemicals is no longer monotonous nor messy.

Drop this device in your pool and let it monitor the water temperature and chemistry, including the pH, chlorine, hardness, bromine, Cyanuric acid and Bromine, 24/7. pHin will notify your smartphone via the pHin app when it is time to adjust chemical levels.

And, depending on the chemicals you use for your pool, pHin can offer specific amount recommendations. The pHin includes a one-year monitoring app service. If you wish to continue your subscription, the rate is $99 per year.
