I’ll see if my Tech guy can re-write to that. Thanks!

As for shipping, I’ll give one of those forwarders a try. Really wish it could be sold on amazon.ca though. I’m a bit of a leader in the low-cost data logger/sensor scene for British Columbia hydrology folks, but unfortunately, I’m…[Read more]

I would be incredibly appreciative if I could buy just the one replacement part and have someone stick it in an envelope and mail it to a Canadian address.

If not, I’m out about ~$3,000 in equipment…[Read more]

Just to follow up on your comments, and then provide the report that I wrapped up last month where I tested the Maxbotix sensor.

Just a quick reply to each comment here:

As part of my technical institute’s graduation requirements, I’m currently designing a project to test the accuracy of MaxBotix’s sensors (as well as a $75 vented pressure transducer) to determine their applicability for streamflow monitoring. I’m also a hydrometric tech so do put a lot of thought into collecting accurate data.

Is there any thought on if the data logger will be shipped to Canada in the future?

Does anyone know if this is a regular occurrence and or when they will be made available again?

I’d also like to ask why they can’t ship to Canada? I do live somewhat…[Read more]

Thanks for the response and I’m looking forward to information on their updated sensor. Let’s hope the price comes down a little bit. 🙂

FYI, the Turbidity sensor linked to is set to be discontinued as of Dec 29th, 2019. Does anyone know if EnviroDIY is planning to specify another turbidity sensors for their set up?
