I am trying to find out the best way to connect 1004-EX to my Rachio which is about 50 feet away. Can’t seem to find a reasonably-priced direct burial shielded twisted wire - any suggestions?
Has anyone tried to connect using direct burial cat6 ethernet wire (using two wires of a twisted pair)? If the signal works for 10GB internet, I am guessing it should work for the water meter too? People have used this approach for other sensors (eg. HVAC) but I cannot find any for a water meter. I am not really concerned about the accuracy (100 vs 120 gallons) but rather with large changes signaling leaks or pipe breaks.
