Gremlin Tank Monitoring

The idea is excellent, you can monitor the oil level from your phone. What is strange is that this device reports once a day! I guess that’s ok, unless your tank is leaking badly! However, the worst thing is the reporting is inaccurate. As many of fellow users mentioned, this reports unchanged oil level for multiple days and the. The next day the level jumps by a big number. For instance, it may show 252 for three days and on the fourth day you’ll see the oil level drops to 235! That’s bad as you may not be prepared.

I just started using the Gremlin via my oil company. The accuracy of how much oil in my tank was completely off. My gauge on my tank registered 1/4 tank; the Gremlin App showed a delivery was made on 12/24. I’m not sure why the app would increase the amount of oil I had in my tank today (12/27), but I ended up calling for a delivery. Fortunately, the oil company was in my area today. They filled the tank for 177 gallons, the most I’ve ever put in my tank in the 11+ years I’ve owned my house. Going to have it removed and go back to monitoring the tank myself.

Needs dark mode support. Annoying to have to switch to light mode to use. Also could be more feature rich. Right now it only gives a current reading and historical readings by date. Would be nice to see weather data correlated or other information and capabilities. Al
