Mold changes are nearing completion on our redesigned pool alarm. Molding is also working on a CC-15 case for our Current Controller. This will allow us to manufacture a 15-amp version that can automatically turn on a whole room of lights and a 220-volt version for international markets. A cover for our 29-Series terminal switch is being developed and is in the design stage.
Engineering continues working on a Sprinkler Controller. This is a ground sensor that can be installed with a sprinkler system and would monitor the amount of water in the soil. It would prevent the sprinkler system from watering if the soil has enough moisture. Wireless pool alarms, wireless switches and sensors continue to be developed. Management is working with a consultant who is helping with the development of a wireless pool alarm.
Management has also been researching a fuel level monitor. Several security companies from around the world have told us fuel theft is a major problem. They are looking for a product to tie into their security system to alert them if their fuel tanks or trucks are tampered with.
