Video Camera to monitor OWB temp.
« on: August 17, 2012, 06:34:53 PM »
Does anyone use a security camera to keep an eye on their owb temp?  I would like to use a web based camera so I could view online with computer, and when away from home ( at work) I can check it with my iphone. I know very little about these electronics so if anyone is doing this I would appreciate any help you could give. Thanks

Talk to RSI, much easier and better ways of doing that without using a camera.

I use a Woodminder system.  It works great!!  Does more than monitor temperature.  It actually monitors wood level and eliminates the need for an aquastat at you backup furnace.
