yep, that’s the product line. mine is not there - mine is the sensor and 
data-out part of “Aquagauge Differential Pressure Water Level Sensor with 
Analog and Serial Output” (product discontinued, i see) and the physical 
interface (wireless) part of “Aquagauge Water Level Data Logger with Wireless 
Output”. the latter looks like an offline data logger and i have no idea how it 
would react to being downloaded every 5 mins for weewx

i also got them (the australian agent) to hook up one of their flow meters to a 
transmitter box and that worked great, except floaties in the river kept 
fouling the flow meter. when i worked out how to prevent that, it was 
(ironically) shorted out by flood water soon after, and when i contacted 
distributor to replace it discovered the product discontinuance :-(
