Awesome write-up!! Thanks so much for taking the time. I’m awaiting my WiFly and hoping to get a jump-start on a project based on what you did here.

Cheers,
Dave

I would love to see this as an instructable. Do you recommend the WyFly shield?

Nice work; I have used Untrasonic distance module for measuring water level in a plastic tank. Very accurate and stable. These sell on e-bay for around $3+
You might like to consider it for your project
eg ‘Arduino Ultrasonic Module HC-SR04 Sensor Ranging Distance Measuring Transducer’

hi,

What type of solarpanel did you use? I’m building a similar-looking project and i’m looking for a durable energy source for my arduino wifi

thx !

Great John, good work, I’m curious to look at your code!

Great project and efforts to make WyFly to work as it should! I would suggest a slightly different configuration that would eliminate costly WyFly and make it very reliable project:
1. Use digi’s ZigBee Pro to contiguously reading and transmitting data from your water tank sensor. No need for Arduino by the water tank and no need for a big battery.
2. Put Arduino with another Zigbee to receive and process the data in the house connected to ethernet.
3. Use EtherNet shield or Arduino Ethernet board to serve the data via HTTP server.

I am using this configuration in a different type of security project and it works very well.

Hello

I need to have something to read me the water level and the diesel level of two tanks, and after by connecting this to my network to have it displayed in a screen to monitoring this online.

I also need to have a interface to configure different levels of alarm and some emails to send in case of low level alarm.

Is it possible to use your project?

Where can i find the user interface?
