HOBO MX Soil Moisture Data Loggers are the industry's only low-cost, fully integrated soil moisture loggers with Bluetooth wireless data offload. These loggers are ideal for researchers and growers looking for the accurate data they need to save water, improve crop yields, reduce harmful runoff, and protect ecosystems.Get the measurement accuracy you need wherever you need it without having to remove loggers from their deployed locations to offload data. All you need is a mobile phone, tablet, or Windows computer running the free HOBOconnect app. No cables to connect!The HOBO MX2307 soil moisture logger is built to withstand the elements. They feature a rugged weatherproof housing designed for long-term studies even in harsh climates. Their compact size and built-in mounting holes make deployment simple, with no need for mounting brackets in most cases. Plus, wireless communication means there's no need to open the loggers in the field and risk compromising the weatherproof sealFeatures: - Convenient wireless setup and download via Bluetooth- Ready to deploy, with pre-attached sensors- Durable TEROS 10 soil moisture sensor lasts over 10 years in the field- For use in both mineral soils and soilless media- Sturdy, sharp stainless-steel spikes for easy installation and better soil contact- Compact, weatherproof housing with built-in mounting- Current data in real time with Onset's free HOBOconnect app- Ability to share downloaded data easily from your mobile device or Windows laptop- Option to view data in Percent of Field Capacity
