Lumary, a company known for its focus on sustainable smart home solutions, has announced that its new product, the Solar Watering Timer, has exceeded its funding goal on Kickstarter in just one week. This development has been particularly well-received by supporters in areas where water is scarce, as the product aims to aid in creating more effective irrigation plans for gardens.
The Solar Watering Timer is equipped with a Hall sensor, which allows for precise monitoring of water flow in each designated zone. This feature ensures that water is distributed accurately based on the specific needs of each plant, preventing both over-watering and water wastage. As a result, plants receive the exact amount of water required for healthy growth.
A spokesperson for Lumary mentioned the positive feedback from backers, especially those residing in regions where water conservation is critical. The product addresses the necessity for efficient use of water, providing users with greater control over their irrigation systems and supporting sustainable gardening practices.
In response to the varying requirements of their supporters, Lumary has incorporated additional features into their Kickstarter campaign. Soil temperature and humidity sensors have been introduced to function alongside the Solar Watering Timer. These sensors enable irrigation based on real-time soil data, offering a more precise and data-informed approach to watering.
Some users, particularly those with limited access to electricity, are exploring ways to integrate the Solar Watering Timer with their existing solar panels, storage batteries, and water pumps. This combination facilitates the creation of fully solar-powered, off-grid irrigation systems that operate independently of external power sources. Such systems are particularly beneficial in areas with unreliable or non-existent electricity supply.
The Kickstarter campaign for the Lumary Solar Watering Timer is still active, offering early-bird discounts and the chance for supporters to be among the first to obtain the product. For more information and to participate in the campaign, check out Kickerstarter here.
