Toro Ag now offers a LoRa radio/internet connected version of Tempus for farms or larger applications. Great video Andy!

Great concept. We need more LoRaWAN in the USA!

I'll have to buy one to review. My first thoughts are I'd like to see them stick with the common wire being white. I teach to my guys to always keep the common wire white. Second, I'm curious how long the single battery will last. Hunter NODES allow two batteries which allows us to get through an entire season without any worry.

@1Builtcummins 💯 white would better. Perhaps it is black because it’s a DC system?
Not long ago, I had an electrical engineering friend at the University of Michigan use a specialized tool for doing power profiling, and he was able to measure the power required to turn-on a Hunter DC solenoid.
Total energy pulled from the battery to flip the solenoid was 731mJoules.
9V has 19,000 joules according to Google.
So the battery, could theoretically flip the valve 26,000 times.
But I doubt you get anywhere near that in practice for several reasons…
Also batteries don’t like cold or hot temp, so their capacity goes down over time.
Interesting how little power a DC solenoid requires.
