HOBO MX2307 Wireless Soil Moisture and Temperature Data Logger - Optional Remote Monitoring
- Low stock - 3 items left
HOBO MX Soil Moisture Data Loggers are the industry’s only low-cost, fully integrated soil moisture loggers with Bluetooth wireless data offload. Available in two models – one that measures soil moisture (HOBO MX2306) and one that measures both soil moisture and temperature (HOBO MX2307) – these loggers are ideal for researchers and growers looking for the accurate data they need to save water, improve crop yields, reduce harmful runoff, and protect ecosystems.
Communications
Access your data directly from your mobile phone, tablet or Windows computer when within 100 foot (30 m) line-of-sight range of the logger, with the free HOBOconnect app.
To enable cloud data storage and analysis, add an MX Data Plan (select from the options above).
To enable near real-time remote monitoring and alerts via email or text message, add an MX Data Plan and an MX Gateway (select from the options above). Note: the MX Gateway must be indoors.
