More info about the TankCheck Sensor can be found here: http://mopeka.com/
This application is designed to be used with the Mopeka TankCheck sensor. The Tank Check application can measure the LPG propane level to tell you the exact fill level and when your tank is empty. It can be used on tanks found in RVs, heaters, BBQ grills, etc. The Tank Check sensors are magnetically stuck to the bottom of your propane tank and will periodically measure and wirelessly send the fill level or percentage to the Tank Check app. Stick it on the bottom of your tank and know exactly when you are running low on propane! This technology is patent pending.
Usage: 1. To pair your Tank Check sensor to the phone, simply press the "Sync" button on the back of the sensor while the app's main screen is visible. The first time you use your Tank Check sensor you must press the "Sync" button 5 times in a row in order to wake up the sensor. 2. Place the Tank Check sensor in the center of the underside of the tank. Most tanks have a small "flat" spot on the center and this is the nominal location for the sensor. 3. Flip the tank over. Once the fluid has settled the app will display a reading. Note that the LPG fluid will be sloshing around in the tank for a few minutes and the quality of the measurements will be low until this has stabilized.

Works great. I was apprehensive due to some of the 1-star reviews, but it's clear that some of them didn't read the instructions. Your tank has to level and still for an accurate read. Setup took 2 minutes. Honestly, some of these reviews... Who mounts a propane tank on the front of their vehicle?!? The CIA isn't after you; location services have to be enabled for low-power Bluetooth to work.

Innovative design, works great for water, gray, black and propane Tanks. Also, sensors are compatible with Vic tron systems so onnce installed you can see data there and remotely on their Vrm portal. Even temp sensor info comes over to Vic tron VRM

Works great you have to be sure to adjust the indoor monitor to a different tank size if you buy the one that has the indoor gauge otherwise it says full forever they come pre-set for 5 gallons tank

1/30/22: Battery is significantly affected by cold. Changing the battery is a PAIN & tears up your sensor. Terrible design! Sensor & app regularly do not sync. Bluetooth shows zero signal. Getting more disappointed with this purchase as time goes on. 1/3/22: Would only find signal via one device. Does not accurately show 20 or 30 lb bottles & the "arbitrary" option for larger bottles shows as poor quality & doesn't register anything. May be returning this rather than buying two more than planned.

It's one of the worst I have ever used. I only use it during winter, and my password didn't work Ask for reset. Good luck trying to get that done. I keep getting a message to enter a new password. However, there's no place to enter new password. Go figure 🤔

Product is not consistent not only that one and a half years in owning the tank sensor and one of them is completely offline and cannot be re-synced. Very disappointed in his product it was a waste of money I do not recommend.

I have 2 sensors that were working ok for 2 weeks. The message in the app indicate I now have no sensors added. What changed?
