I gave up on the IoT water meter reader. Being technical and thinking you can solve everything with technology is both a blessing and a curse; dogged persistence has given me the life I have today, but it has also burned serious amounts of time because I never want to let a problem go unsolved. But sometimes, common sense and the ROI of my time have to prevail, so I packed up all the gear and went back to processing data breaches. If you happen to solve this problem in a way that doesn’t require any more time investment on my end, I’d love to hear it 😊
