Igijima kuhlanganisa amabhethri AAA onobungozi beneminyaka emithathu yebhethri futhi iza nesiqinisekiso sembuyiselo yemali engu-30, kanye newaranti yonyaka owodwa - kungani ungazami, ikakhulukazi uma uneminye imikhiqizo ye-Samsung?
Isihlungi samanzi se-D-Link DCH-S16 senze uhlu lwethu lubonga kusihluthulelo saso sekhebula. Ikhebula elitholakalayo (i-3.5-foot non-sensing kanye nekhebula le-sensor 1.65-foot) lifaka okuholela ekunamathiselwe kulo, ukuze ukwazi ukugijima eduze komphetho wakho phansi. Uma amanzi ethinta enye yezinto ezihamba phambili, ibeka i-alamu, ikuvumele ukuba uqaphe indawo enkulu futhi ngokushesha uthole isaziso uma kunamanzi angena noma ephuma.
I-unit base ixhuma ngqo emdongeni, ngakho-ke akudingeki amabhethri, futhi i-alamu eyakhelwe ngaphakathi ine-decibel 70 yamandla aphilile ne-LED ebomvu ekhanyayo, ngakho-ke uzokwazi ukunakwa kwakho kuyadingeka ngaso leso sikhathi. Ungase futhi uxhume ifoni yakho usebenzisa uhlelo lokusebenza lweselula le-Mydlink ne-Wi-Fi ukuthola izaziso ze-push uma ukuvuza kutholakala. Uma uneminye imikhiqizo ye-Mydlink ehlakaniphile noma imikhiqizo enikwe amandla ye-IFTTT, ungasebenzisa uhlelo lokusebenza ukuvumela ukusebenzisana phakathi kwenzwa yamanzi neminye imikhiqizo yakho ngomphumela we-synergistic ekhaya lakho.
Nakuba umncintiswano omncane kunezinye izinzwa ezihlahlwini lwethu, inzwa yeLeakSmart ingakwazi ukukhuphula imali eningi ngoba ingaboni kuphela ukuvuza, ixhuma emanzini akho futhi ivala wonke amanzi ngokuzenzekelayo phakathi nemizuzwana emihlanu yokuthola ukuvuza ukuvimbela umonakalo ongenzeki usebenzisa i-Valve LeakSmart.
Indlu yangasese evulekile, umshini wokuwasha noma umshini wokushisa amanzi kungabangela ukulimala kwezinkulungwane zamaRandi uma ukuvuza kungatholakali ngokushesha. Ngenzwa yeLeakSmart, akudingeki ukhathazeke ngalokhu.
