A morning scene: you are calmly drinking coffee at breakfast. A moment later you get a notification on your phone: “Water leak detected!”.

The alarm goes off and you start thinking about the worst case. Your first thought: “The kids did not turn off the tap and it is probably pouring down upstairs?”. Reality can be different, though. A bowl of water left by the sink caught the cat’s interest, and the cat tipped it over on purpose.

This is not a sensor with notifications. This is peace of mind, and you appreciate its value at moments like this.

And what devices do you have at home that will save you from a disaster?

Do you look at technology the same way?

I run technology products and write here about how that turns out. Take a look at the tools I use day to day.
