Great info you have put into this video. I've been looking into this device from Amazon and there only like 3 videos I have found. Thanks from the indepth review. Just ordered mine to do a aboveground irrigation system for my lawn.

If you only wanted to manage at home, then you didn't even need such a device, it is more important to manage outside the home

I do own the Orbit B-Hyve XD 24511 that I bought from Lowes along with the optional WiFi. Does Irrigold has automatic rain delay and rain gauge? I noticed that the Orbit B-Hyve XD 24511 is not as weatherproof as compared to Irrigold. Should I switch, because the HOT SUN did damage the LCD Screen on the Orbit B-Hyve XD 24511.

@FieldOfFocus 2 жыл бұрын

There is not an automatic rain delay or rain gauge. However every change can be made using the app on your phone. Sorry to hear the sun damaged the LCD screen on the Orbit. This device doesn't have a display, as it uses the app for all adjustments.

Can I set the time and use it by connecting only via Bluetooth without internet? Oftentimes, when I go out with my phone, the Bluetooth goes off.

@FieldOfFocus 2 жыл бұрын

For me, when I used it last year, I had to be on the wifi connection to make any changes. It is just warming up where I live, so I will experiment with it some more soon. Thanks for watching.

Good review, but i think that you can use the smartlife app outside from your home, you only have to have 3G-4G connexion. I use the smartlife app for other device and it's working coorectly. (sorry for my poor english)

@Field of Focus mentioned that she entered the password of your router? How do I do that step? I just plugged the hub in the wall, put the batteries in the water timer, went to the App and looks like everything was added automatically. Am I missing something? It’s working when I’m in home but didn’t try it yet away from home.

I don't know how long the battery lasts yet... it hasn't run out yet.. So hard to say. My hub is placed in the inside of the exterior wall right near where the Timer is. so mine is just a few feet away, through a wall.

@fantomcity5751 2 жыл бұрын

I guess you have to Add the device (Bluetooth sprinkler) 2 times -- after you add the WiFi Hub. You add the device to SmartLife and then you click on the Sprinkler WiFi Hub and click on add Device there also, (it says associated Bluetooth Device). Then you should be ok to operate it away from home.
