I think this is the lowest price I've seen in this. I have had this for about 6 months. My first unit was defective and they replaced it after troubleshooting a bit. Since the replacement it has worked well. It will detect if I have a dripping faucet, I would estimate it detects anything more than one drip per second. Less than that and it may not detect the leak. I plan to add a dome shutoff valve so I can turn off the water main if I'm not home. I looked at the moen all in one solution but the cost of a plumber for install would add significantly to the overall cost.

I purchased this on Prime Day as well and have not had as much luck. I get false positives quite often and after working with their support team it seems as though they are related to pressure fluctuations on my line that appear as usage.

"I'm really sorry but it appears these small usage amounts are coming from pressure fluctuations.

When the triangle on your meter fluctuates back and forth, it implies that there are pressure fluctuations in the system. And when this happens, water flows back and forth across your water meter. We can filter some of that out. However, when the fluctuations get big enough, we have a hard time distinguishing between real water use and these disturbances. "

I wouldnt trust the first google result you see. I live in a very average city and my water is not nearly that cheap. I know other parts of the state are a little cheaper, but 0.15c/gal is ridiculously cheap. Our water district charges about 2.2c/gal ($22 per 1000 gallons.) I would LOVE to know where in the US you can get water for that cheap.
I don't know why this guy is trying to tell people how much their water costs. I've got a monthly bill in my lap right now at $38 for 5700 gal, so about $6.67 per 1K gallons (sewer is another $48 of my bill). That's in Florida for 5 people (it's a little high; I had to pressure wash and top off the pool a couple of times during this time period). I can easily see a toilet running for an entire week (or more) running up a $600+ bill. Likely their water company also charged them sewer costs as well since the water was going down the toilet (literally) and is being treated.

I've been trying to buy it and keeps saying there is an order on the site. I guess I'll skip testing it this time. Was hoping to throw it into all my rentals.

How far from the house/wifi router are your water meters? If the unit straps to the meter in a hole 50' or so from the house, I'm concerned it will be difficult to get a good wifi signal out to the meter.
You should get a signal. Mine is about 30' from the garage where the bridge is plugged in. My meter is in a concrete pit with a cast iron lid. Have used the device for well over a year.

Wonder of water companies will start giving these to their customers like the electric companies are doing for their customers. Midamerican energy gave me a free energy monitor and smart thermostat.

Literally just installed one yesterday after buying it from Amazon for $199 last week (d'oh!).

Took all of 10 minutes, would have taken less if I didn't need to dig up a channel lock to remove pentagon nut holding down the plate on top of my water meter.

Very impressive tech, worked flawlessly and very accurately. Picked it up to keep an eye on a vacation home, now that I can grab one from Stack Social I'll get it for my primary house as well.

I'm confused. I thought ordering wasn't working

Couple of minutes before I posted. I used my phone, not sure if that helped.
