7188 2025-04-15 Lab none Tested Lab none I tested this sensor in the lab. Its power draw was hanging up a CR1000 or maybe the Lithium power pack. I tested it on the lab power supply and it was pulling 1.4A when it should be more like 80uA. The cable is pretty beat up with lots of tape patches, cracking and one abraded spot with the internal conductors visible. Not sure if it is worth cutting off the worst parts of the cable and trying it again.
7187 2024-12-19 Bouldin Corn Water Level Removed Lab none Removed from BC because it was shorting out all the 12V power.
6389 2023-08-24 Lab none Installed Bouldin Corn Water Level Installed at Bouldin Corn to replace sn 70011234 for longer cable.
5758 2022-03-31 Hill Slough Water Level Removed Lab none Removed from HS tower because it was replaced with the HYDRO21 CTD sensor.
