Hello Wrenches,
Deep appreciation for saving me much time and hassle in beta testing products
that are released to market prematurely.
Happy to report that the Conext Combox and the Conext Insight portal from
Schneider is working very well for me it is a robust remote control, monitoring

I have the Seek unit also. Works great for the price. You can save images
and videos.
It has so far found for me questionable connections on 2 different battery
installs, a poorly torqued charge controller output terminal, and a skunk
hiding under my back porch.
The unit paid for itself very qui
Bill,
If you are looking for a less sophisticated and less expensive unit,
I recently purchased (on Amazon) a Seek Compact Thermal Imager that
plugs into the port on my iPhone for $236. A downloaded app runs it,
and it shows thermal images on the phone's screen. To date I
Wrenches,

Are you able to reliably re-establish connectivity by rebooting the Mate3?
I was informed today that the power to the Mate3 is on the Orange/White pair.
I have the ability to control a relay remotely that could open a relay on these
leads. If this will reestablish communications
We use several FLIRs here at MidNite... Invaluable tool for LOTS of

You can by a FLIR E4: 80 x 60 resolution brand new on Amazon for $925.

Yes, Bill.I'd recommend going with a Flir. You should be able to find a

We have been having problems with the Mate 3 Optics RE since we installed it at

We have reported to Outback that the Mate3 OpticsRE will stop reporting if
the internet goes down for a while. In the Caribbean, we have some outages
and the M3 does not handle them well. I think there is an option to reboot
the M3 daily, I would try that. You can be pretty sure it is not a cable
Our Optics systems spend more time offline than online. Outback
continually provides good technical support but they are unable to
permanently resolve this connection issue.
Luckily we only have a couple Optics systems but we have been dealing with
this same issue for around a year. In most inst
Our other significant experience has been that the Mate3 will stop drawing
graphs after a few days, but I don't have the latest firmware add I am

Friends:
We just installed our first Optics RE systems. They are both at the same
location connected to a satellite data system. In the three weeks these two
systems have been on line, they have become disconnected several times. The
latest time both Mates disconnected but we were able to re
Hi Jay,
I've used the Milbank K4977 taps for a few supply side connections in Milbank
meter sockets. They make for a fast and clean connection. I would highly
