LinkTap G2S Smart Garden Hose Timer & Gateway, 2-Year Battery Life | Irrigation by Weather/Volume/Duration, Wider Range Than WiFi, Real-Time Fault Detection & Alert, Anti-Freeze Protection, IP66

Super impressed. Seems like a lot of outlay for a small garden but installed and worked flawlessly. App is great, feature-rich and simple to use. Auto shut-off, fall and low/high flow alarms, smart weather settings... excellent value. Will buy again.

Great Product! No BS, no nonsense, it just works. Despite the all-plastic construction, it has yet to leak. The valve operates relatively slowly, preventing water hammer to an extent. That being said, I have highly filtered well water, which operates at a lower pressure than city water; your mileage may vary. The recent UI update to the app has greatly improved the experience. Battery life is good, and I have had no issues with the wireless connection from the valves to the gateway. The system uses a proprietary adaptation of the ZigBee protocall which uses the 2.4Ghz band. If you live in a crowded RF environment, you may have to experiment with different ZigBee channels to find one that's ideal. It was easy to install and configure with the gateway requiring a wired 10/100 Ethernet connection and 5V power over micro USB. One way the gateway could be improved is by supporting PoE; a lot of people, myself included, use it with various 3rd-party automation systems like Home Assistant and have PoE switches. I think support for PoE alongside a 5V input would be appreciated. On the topic of Home Assistant, the integration via HACS works great, allowing for local HTTP control over the valves and live stats reporting. Their app UI previously was atrocious, which is what prompted me to use Home Assistant for control, but since the update, I would be comfortable using the LinkTap app and their web services for control. Furthermore, they designed the valve firmware in such a way that the valves will continue to execute their watering schedule if something were to go wrong with the gateway or your internet connection. This also means that you could program the valve in proximity to the gateway, then move it to a remote location out of reach of the gateway, and it will continue to function. Overall, good product.

The support from Link Tap is outstanding. Quick answers to questions and help. The product is of the highest quality.

The LinkTap G2S Wireless Irrigation Computer is one of the most reliable and well-designed watering systems I’ve used. The wireless range is excellent — far better than standard WiFi timers — which makes it perfect for larger gardens or areas where WiFi can’t reach. Setup is straightforward, and the app is very easy to use. Scheduling watering cycles, checking status, and making adjustments all work smoothly. The real-time error detection and notifications are a huge advantage: it immediately alerts you to leaks, valve issues, or unusual water usage, giving you peace of mind even when you're away from home. The built-in water flow meter is accurate and helps track water usage precisely. The device feels sturdy, weatherproof (IP66), and reliable in all conditions. If you want a smart irrigation system that combines long-range connectivity, great functionality, and dependable performance, this is an excellent choice. Highly recommended!

Once you buy plants you must look after them, one of the key thing is to water the plants regularly and on time. I bought Link G2S gateway and watering dive over a year ago and I must say this is one of the device which I would highly recommend, an excellent product and robust design, so simple to assemble and start using it. Product - There is nothing out there in the market that matches the quality, reliability and durability of this product, I have had few in the past and this one is above the class. The batteries last forever, well I haven’t yet changed mine and I can see on the app over one year if use it’s still 60%. There are so many features that comes with the device that you would be blown away, weather forecast, don’t worry about turning your timer off, the devices skips watering plan if the forecast is to be rainy, Customer service- one of the best customer service team I had to deal with, Jack is an amazing person works for the company based in Australia, I had few queries and Jack sorted them out promptly. This would be a game changer for you, the best product out there in the market, absolutely no match to its quality and performance.
