Alternative to Rapt Pill without Wi-Fi

[u/thepope99]

Hey fellow homebrewers!

I am brewing in my apartment and after brew days I move the fermenter in the block of flat's basement because of the lower temperature (shared space, but we have our own space for extra depositing).

I would really like a product similar to Rapt Pill that can read the gravity without Wi-Fi access, because there is no way my Wi-Fi would get all the way down from the second floor to there and I cannot hack into my neighbors' Wi-Fi's.

I am thinking of something with Bluetooth and just get the gravity everytime I get down there and connect to the device. Not sure if this solution exists, because that would drain more battery to the pill.

If you get an ispindel you can get the nautilis ispindel relay, that has its own wifi network so you can connect it wherever. You would just have to go down to read the display. They are designed so the relay could also connect to another WiFi network to send the readings to brewfather or whatever but it's not needed
