    Remote surveillance of water well

    Put in a system that allows me to see if our water well came on each day to feed cows and livestock. Some use game cameras but I wanted to leverage the wi fi at the house and not pay any additional fees. Able to see on phone using an app plus send text or emails if u want it to...patterned after the scada we use in the oilfield..

    Willing to discuss with others. Bought at Amazon and lowes for just over $200.

When valve opens it changes pressure and switch sees it and controller communicates it..... sounds complicated but not

          I installed Allweviee solar security outdoor wifi camera. Its connected to my Elon Musk starlink.

          I connect to it regularly to check on things. Thinking of buying 2 more.

          The tilt, pan, zoom and 360 degree view is great.
