Brilliant Product
Just bought my second D1. Quick and easy set-up, up there with Apple and Google products (if not better). Very well made, amazingly rich-featured app and with two killer features:1) Robust comms link from gateway to controllers. I have the gateway at one end of a long house and the controllers in a greenhouse beyond the far end with a wifi network buzzing in-between but comms are totally robust.2) The watering schedule durations can be factored by a +-% if the temperature goes over a user-defined max or below a user-defined min. This helps avoid under or over watering from a fixed schedule, especially while away. Can also set to pause watering if rain is forecast for the area.Love the bubbling sound of the watering alerts!

Excellent product so good I bought a second one
A few months back I looked at different water garden controllers and while there are some products that have additional features they also cost twice the price, so the linktap ticked all my boxes.So much so that I have bought a second unit as I am laying a new lawn and wanted to control a couple of oscillating sprinklers as I am not prepared to manually water the lawn several times a day until the seeds starts to grow.The user interface takes a bit of time to find your way round the menu, I have seen better but functionally does all I want.The wether feature is a bit of a hit or miss as it uses Apple weather data and this is not always accurate but I don’t think there is much time can do about that.It seems that you get a better resultant if you set the rain period to 72 hours as sometimes Apple take time to update the weather report.It would be nice if there was the possibility of connecting a moisture sensor, and better still one of these off the shelf rain / weather sensors. I am aware this is all possible if one had the time to find ways of interfacing third party equipment but this is no simple task.

Expensive, but worth it.
We are slowly automating the watering of our garden which while not huge is too big for WiFi based remote valves to work.I looked at installing remote hard-wired valves but the cost of the multi-core cable alone was going to be horrendous. High end systems multiplexing control onto single cables are also way too expensive. So I needed another solution.These valves use Zigbee (a wireless system a bit like WiFi) and they genuinely do work at up 100m as claimed so long as you site the base unit sensibly, I've put ours at the top of the roof (inside).The hardware us well made, they are easy to set up using the app and they seem to work well. The near real-time feedback of water flow is very useful as you can see immediately if something is amiss.The app for programming them works fine although it is not great to use. They have clearly spent the money on the hardware, not the software! Don't get me wrong: everything is there and it does the job, it is just a bit clunky.So more expensive than WiFi valves, and probably overkill for a small garden or just a few pots. But if you have something larger this kit will do the job for £100s of pounds (assuming several valves) rather than the £1000s or even £10,000s it would require for a traditional "central controller plus multi-core cable to remote valves" solution.

Irrigation
This is a very easy to use product, very easy to set up. I am using it to turn on my irrigation system from the UK when it is in Spain.

A little temperamental
Overall a very good piece of kit but some small gremlins with the software which is being ironed out.

Water ingress issues
Initial review is 5 stars.Bought this in June, it stopped working in October same year. (Hence drop in stars)Opened battery compartment to find inside dripping wet, ?internal leak vrs rain resistant issue. Kept beside older unit against wall off the ground in a reasonably sheltered area.Having owned one of the original single hose units for a few years this is very very disappointing.When this works it’s fantastic, great control over watering the garden. Have used their single tap version for three years very reliable and very happy with it.Update: very quick reply to my email by company offering a replacement item. Cannot fault this. Hopefully just a rare issue that won’t be in the replacement.

Impressed
Works as advertised, I was originally shopping for the basic ones with no flow meter. Now that I have the flow meter as a result of inventory issues, I’m sold. Great product all around.

Great Product
Having decided to rehabilitate our lawn, my wife and I were looking for a way to save time by automating lawn watering without having to install underground sprinkler system. LinkTap had good reviews and we went ahead and bought D1 and G2S. We are very happy with the purchase. Installation and app setup was quick and easy. The app has several features that are very useful rain skip, ability to set various watering schedules, keep track of water usage. So far we have had no problems

Non plus Ultra
Habe mir lange den Umstieg überlegt, und dann 3 Doppel Anschlüsse zugelegt. Einfach zum einrichten, gute stabile Qualität. Waren 3 Wochen im Urlaub, und ich muss sagen: zuverlässig und sicher, hat täglich bewässert. Habe anfangs immer über Kameras nachgeschaut und es hat immer geregnet ☔️.Würde es uneingeschränkt sofort wieder kaufen, der Preis ist zwar hoch aber es funktioniert. HomeKit Kameras sind immer mal offline, die Bewässerung nie sind immer erreichbar obwohl der Garten sehr groß ist.

Fungerar ypperligt men krångligt interface
Fungerar bra. Lätt och installera. Bra räckvidd och ypperlig koll på mängd.Användargränssnitt i app (iOS) bör förbättras och göras mer intuitivt
