I've tried alot of moisture meters and they either crap out quickly, aren't highly accurate without the ability to calibrate or require manually taking soil moisture with a probe. This takes care of all of that. Ecowitt makes good products in general. Also use this brand for a wireless remote temp. gauge they make.
As far as these temp gauges, just make sure you calibrate them when you get them and after youve connected, they're pretty much plug and play. The gaskets around the battery component can fail sometimes. I lost one of these to moisture getting in the battery compartment. Now, I make sure I tighten the battery case tightly, put the rubber cap on the back and I've augmented by putting a bead of silicone sealant around that rubber cap to really ensure all moisture is kept out. Batteries last atleast through season so I just break the seal, replace battery and reapply seal at beginning of season. Seems to work for me

5.0 out of 5 stars So far so good
Verified PurchaseBought it because my newly planted quaking aspen was getting leaf scorch. This is for a house we have far away with no gardening/caretaker services nearby. So I needed to make sure it was getting enough water.
I have rainpoint wifi water valves and tried their moisture sensor first. It was terrible, not a true wifi sensor, and technically neither is this one, but it's way better. The moisture sensor is RF and talks to a receiver that links to your ecowitt online account.
This sensor maintains a log of moisture so you can see how water is retained and when it needs water. This feature alone helped me figure out the best watering times and frequency.
The receiver has a pressure and temperature sensor, which isn't too useful for me because it's inside the house, but nice to have it to compare the readings of my thermostat.
The sensor takes one AA battery and the receiver is usb powered. The product doesn't come with a usb charger, so you'll have to figure it out for the receiver.
Pairing and set up was very simple, but you do need to create an account (email address needed).
According to the manual, the battery for the sensor lasts about one year.
It's been a couple of weeks, but so far I am please with this purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Takes away the guesswork
Verified PurchaseI've been using this for a couple of months and it definitely takes the guesswork out of watering. It was relatively easy to set up and pair with an additional units (which come without the module). I will be using these from now on and I recommend them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Failed quickly, seller made things right.
Verified PurchaseDevice worked as advertised until just after the 30 day return window closed—now it’s effectively useless. Do not recommended.
EDIT:
The seller saw my above review, reached out and replaced the failed item. Appreciate the responsiveness of the seller. That said, the design of the device is not watertight, which is problematic for a moisture sensor. Recommend handling this device with kid gloves to protect against water ingress.
