Jesse Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Do you have a camera on your tank to check while you aren't home? What camera do you use? post screen shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cptnspanky Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Sadly im still awaiting my moai robot cleaner/camera on kickstarter. Theyve slowed to a snails pace on putting the product out. Still moving forward though....i suspect they ran out of moneySent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muttley000 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I remember hearing about those. Anxious to see it released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muttley000 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 That probably how I heard about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonvice Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I contemplated it, but was kinda sour after the Fishbit. The idea behind Kickstarters is awesome, but I haven't seen one come into production yet... at least not ones that I have funded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonvice Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Yeah, but it is a risk that you take when doing it. Fishbit is dead in the water right now, because of production issues. Thankfully I was able to get my money back, but I still hope that they are able to make it to production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I’ve always wanted a camera on my tank. Unfortunately I have the bandwidth flow of an 80 year olds urine flow. But if by some technological miracle I get a good isp, I’d put a Wyze Cam on mine for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share Posted February 17, 2019 I have Nest cameras and may just put one of them on the tank. Problem is where to mount it in a living room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do those things and you’ll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I have unlimited data. You could always run a speedtest from your phone and decide if paying for unlimited is better than the isp you currently have.

Here is speed test for both Verizon and my ISP. Verizon ISP is Century Link DSL I need to to check into other carriers out here. I would totally get just a hot spot from a carrier just for my cameras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id talk to verizon and see what they would charge you for a dedicated hotspot, with unlimited data. I couldnt survive on that dsl connection without losing my mind lolSent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
