Remote monitoring

[calvertbrothers]

Hello this stuff is all new to me, I’m very old fashion. But if it saves me fuel, time, and peace of mind I’m all for it! My sugar operation is very remote. It’s a Mile off the road no electric everything is ran off engines. There is no electric. I’m wondering if there is a live video monitor run on batteries?

Trail camera perhaps (they operate off batteries, but typically give still images). Do you get cell coverage at the site?

I do but it’s definitely not the best

I've no experience, but heres another thread, where they are using a trail camera, that sends photos via cell phone.

I use a WiFi camera. A hot spot and a deep cycle battery. Solar panels help a little.

I do have a setup for my old pump station that I have a boat battery with a 300 watt solar panel setup how long does it last?

I use a camera from Reolink , wifi with a hot spot. A 150 watt solar panel keeps a deep cycle battery charged. Works great!

I have a couple batteries. I’m guessing I switch them out 4-5 times during the season.

My new Remote Vacuum Sense (RVS) unit is another way of remote monitoring. You read vacuum using text messages.
