Outside of AI...;faceslap whatda the people's using? Ink brid I've head of course. Anything else? Multiple sensors wireless....looking for different ideas...

That is all
 
I use some Inkbird and old school ACI [ not even wifi] 67 I think
I use multiple fans 24/7.
 
i'm all ACI now, never thought or planned for it though. always just had manual controls and a heap indoor/outdoor temp-rh sender. it's only recent since Bandit hooked me up with the controller he outgrew. it has the four slots, i'm only using three of them ATM. and in the hydro side i have the aci controller with the two built in sockets. with these two i can read temp/rh from each cabinet and control heat/cooling/rh and all the circulation fans. i've also upgraded my exhausts to aci.

i didn't think being able to see/adjust these things remotely would ever get used but it turns out i use it way more than i ever thought i would. i don't even touch the controllers themselves anymore. and the ability to see charts and history and set up alerts or trigger notifications is just icing on the cake for me.

aci got me hook line and sinker!! hahaha
 
So it has 3 different sensors then? Could a guy put them all in the same space/tent/room?
Each one has temp and rh

You can have as many as you want. Put them everywhere.

They sell a gateway which gives you access offsite.

These are for monitoring only. But I have found them to be highly accurate and reliable. They run off a large coin cell battery but it lasts probably a year.

Move them wherever you need them from seedling to veg to flower to dry to cure. Small enough to fit in a mason jar easy.

And of course there is an app.

Mine are like 5 or 7 years old the newer ones are even better so I am told.

I use the UIS system with the controller 69 pro wireless/bluetooth and yes, I've actually changed parameters remotely. In fact, due to a recent warm up, I've been running my fan on high through the dark cycle. It's kept my VPD at 1.30 kPa. My lights don't turn on until 8am and by that time, I've been at work 2 hrs. I will remotely change my fan from "ON" to "VPD" and turn on my humidifier which I leave switched off at night. I'm told that these changes can be automated but I haven't looked into it yet.

So it has 3 different sensors then? Could a guy put them all in the same space/tent/room?

Mine has 4 ports. I'm using 3. The ports have a heater on one, a humidifier on another, and my carbon filter exhaust fan on a third port. I believe now there's an option to go as much as 8 ports but for me, 4 has been sufficient because I don't use it to control my lights.

Something happened here as well! I seem to have a few ACI boxes laying around here lately.
Some stoner/grower has gotta be building this shit
 
All ACI here w the 69+ pro controller which will manage 8 UIS devices. Currently have 4 oscillating fans, exhaust fan, humidifier, and managed to hook up my mammoth led to it and still have a free port for another device. I'm a newb, but I'd imagine my shitshow of a first grow would've been an absolute failure without being able to set environmental values w the controller... yeah, I'm not good and still learning :)
