Review: Best Smart Water Device - This is an excellent product. Using it for a few weeks now and can’t fault it. It’s easy to setup and install. Comes with a base unit that wires into your network and it pairs with one or more battery powered water timer control devices that attaches to your tap. It uses a private Zigbee network instead of wifi (like Philips Hue lights) so is very efficient on battery on the tap unit. It has a very flexible app that once you get used to it can be configured with whatever schedule want including links to the weather forecast to avoid watering on rainy days. Best feature for me is that it links with Home Assistant which allows you to control and monitor water usage along with all your other smart devices. The smart control of the tap is flawless with no leaks. It’s not the cheapest device but it is quality and better to pay a little more for quality than less for sub standard devices that only partially work. I use to supply water to my irrigation system for my new flower beds and plan to get second tap put in and will be getting a second unit. Highly recommend
Review: Designed in Australia not China - Over the years I have purchased lots of things on desertcart that were designed and manufactured in China. They usually nearly work. While looking for an automated watering controller, I took a lot of care to make sure I did not purchase a wholly Chinese designed and manufactured product. I used to be in the electronics industry and worked with Taiwanese and Chinese manufacturers. I know from experience that if they try to design and build something for the west, for example emulating other western products, the quality and attention to detail is often missing. This was the reason I wanted to avoid any surprises. I found the LinkTap G2S product and purchased it. It was cheaper than the branded watering systems we are all familiar with in the UK, substantially so. It was designed in Australia, and the reviews were positive. I was not disappointed. It was easy to install and configure. You can download an app for it. It comes with a special gateway which you need to connect to your network through a wired connection. The control connection between the gateway and the external tap adapter is wireless, but does not use WiFi. I assume it uses one of the new very low power connections such as Zigbee. Once configured you can turn the tap on remotely, or set it for a timed duration. You can also set it up to deliver xx litres of water if you have the flow control device attached. That for example was useful for topping up the pond, set a value like 100 litres and forget about it. (Mine came with the flow controller). In terms of the physical tap and hose connectors, it is compatible with Hozelock and Gardena systems. So very easy to install and use. It also is aware of your location, and while not relevant in my case because I am watering a greenhouse, if you are watering outside, it can adjust the schedule based on your local weather, either delivering less water, more water or not at all based on temperature and weather. I have been using this system for around 1 month now, no issues at all. If you are looking for an automated controller that you can set up to cover vacations, or for general daily use and have very accurate control over the device, and a record of how it is working you could not go far wrong purchasing one of these. On the other end of my system is a Gardena distribution network set up for my greenhouse.

## Features

- Attention: To use LinkTap water timers, a LinkTap Gateway (not included) is required. One Gateway can control up to 15 LinkTap watering devices (G2S, G1S, D1, T1, Q1, ValveLinker, or any combination of them)
- Attention: LinkTap products utilize proprietary Zigbee protocols and are not compatible with third-party Zigbee hubs
- Wireless Water Timer with Weather-Adaptive Control: Manage your garden watering system from anywhere via mobile/web apps. This smart sprinkler timer automatically adjusts irrigation based on real-time weather data, ensuring efficient water usage and conservation
- Leak-Proof Garden Watering System & Real-Time Alerts: Protect your irrigation system for garden with 24/7 flow monitoring. Receive instant push notifications for leaks, clogs, valve failures, or device disconnections - the ultimate failsafe for your smart hose timer setup
- Smart Hose Timer for Beginners & Experts: Meet every watering need – from small gardens to large lawns & yards. Instantly start/stop water flow or program multi-cycle schedules by date, duration, and volume. Works with drip lines, sprinklers, and custom irrigation setups
- Smart Anti-Freeze Protection: Automatically opens the valve when temperatures drop below a preset threshold, preventing ice buildup and reducing the risk of pipe damage
- Flexible Mesh Network & 2-Year Battery Life: Utilizing a proprietary Zigbee protocol, this system offers wider and more reliable wireless coverage than Wi-Fi hose timers. For large yards or complex terrains, the LinkTap Extender enhances coverage, creating a robust mesh network
- Easy Setup: The Gateway is hardwired to your router, ensuring a stable and secure internet connection with plug-and-play simplicity. Scan the water timer's QR code – devices pair automatically within seconds

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product and Brilliant customer service
*by R***A on 30 April 2023*

Once you buy plants you must look after them, one of the key thing is to water the plants regularly and on time. I bought Link G2S gateway and watering dive over a year ago and I must say this is one of the device which I would highly recommend, an excellent product and robust design, so simple to assemble and start using it. Product - There is nothing out there in the market that matches the quality, reliability and durability of this product, I have had few in the past and this one is above the class. The batteries last forever, well I haven’t yet changed mine and I can see on the app over one year if use it’s still 60%. There are so many features that comes with the device that you would be blown away, weather forecast, don’t worry about turning your timer off, the devices skips watering plan if the forecast is to be rainy, Customer service- one of the best customer service team I had to deal with, Jack is an amazing person works for the company based in Australia, I had few queries and Jack sorted them out promptly. This would be a game changer for you, the best product out there in the market, absolutely no match to its quality and performance.
