Review: When we bought our house 6 years ago, even the inspector couldn't find the sump pit. Turns out, it was in the finished bedroom's closet under the carpet, oddly in the middle of the basement. It's filled up a few times over the years, thankfully when we're at home, so my shop vac and I were able to clear it before there was a problem. A plumber quoted $12k to install a pump because of the odd location, tear down of finished areas, and rebuilding. That wasn't happening. However, with us traveling more, I wanted peace of mind when there was an issue so I could have a neighbor take action. Thankfully we haven't had a real alert in the pit, but the testing worked beautifully. It can send texts up to 1 number, you can customize the message to a degree, it'll also send emails, and you can adjust the frequency of the alerts (1 min, 5 min, 10 min). It's basic, but it does exactly what it needs to do. It was also very simple to set up - you need an account, but there is no subscription fees like other devices, which is a huge win.
Review: Device works great, notifications are sent to my email and SMS. Here is how to configure it out of the box. 1. Go to MySpool.com and register for an account. An email will be sent to you, confirm it by clicking link 2. Dip the water sensor end into water for a couple second (that kicks off the device setup) 3. On computer or mobile, open WIFI and connect to the SASensor-####### (# denotes your device ID) 4. Open webbrowser such as Chrome, Edge on your computer or mobile and in the address bar, type 10.10.4.1 5. Configure you 2.4ghz WIFI, click SAVE. NOTE: it will test that wifi and if it doesn't accept it, you will continue to see a SASensor-###### in your WIFI SSID list. If it accepts your WIFI, that will disappear. 6. Log into your MySpool.com portal, click My Devices and you should see your device there now. 7. Click on Configure Device, enter your email addresses, phone number and also click Advanced Setting to change notification intervals Keep in mind, this unit requires your WIFI connection. The sensor device sends regular heartbeats back to the vendors servers with updates on water sensing alerts. If WIFI isn't working or if the device fails to call back at regular intervals, server marks missed heartbeats and will indicate it accordingly. For best practice, you may wish to have a UPS hooked up to this sensor and to your WIFI modem and router should your environment consider water monitoring a critical requirement (such as server rooms or basements where sump pumps are hooked up) Hope this helps.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: As the lead from the sensor to the box is only 2 feet, can you mount the box to a stud or wall?**
A: Yes you cam: use either duct or double sided tape.  You may also want to look at the rugged version: it comes with a 5 foot lead which is rigidly connected to the sensor. It also comes in an enclosure which has screw mount holes.

**Q: Installed the device, configured both text and email alerts. now i receive a text alert every 6:30 mins. but no email alerts at all. why is it so?**
A: Look for an email with a subject "AWS Notification - Subscription Confirmation".  You need to click on the link in that email to confirm your subscription to email notifications. If you cannot find it, go to Configure Device, remove and then add your email again.  All email changes require subscription confirmations.

**Q: Will this work on a 220v socket, or 110v only ??**
A: It works on 110.

**Q: What water level does it detect at?**
A: I have recently purchased this item and spent a few days testing it.  In my test I placed the sensor on a plate dinner plate which contained water and it triggered a response immediately.  Based on this I would say this sensor appears to be triggered upon contact with even very low levels of water.

*by D***N on 13 March 2022*

This thing works well. It does have a delay with sending the email. About 15-20 mins. So account for placing it lower so that this time gap won't cause water damage because you didn't get there in time. But otherwise, it's great! Easy to set up and can customize the emails.
