Geyserwala Connect Upgrade - Opinions?


Recommended Posts

Hey all!

I've been thinking about remote control for my Geyserwise Max setup and the other day I saw the Geyserwala Connect upgrade from Thingwala. It looks pretty cool. Having the usage graphs would be super helpful, especially since I’ve been wondering if the solar part of my system is working okay - and my wife is not always impressed with the water temperature 😒! It also looks like it has some nifty features like the boost which automatically turns off, and also setting timers looks a lot easier than on the old panel. Both would give me better control over my electricity usage.

I saw some really good reviews for using the Geyserwala with automation (which I may try) but what is it like by itself? Or in my case should I just go for the Tuya upgrade, actually made by Geyserwise - even though it seems reviews are mixed??? I’m a bit hesitant because previously I've felt the pain of smart devices with fiddly setup, poor apps and other nonsense.

How’s your experience of the Geyserwala Connect been? I’d really appreciate any opinions before I make a decision. 🙏

Thanks in advance!

Hi Zabdab, I purchased the geyserwala about two or 3 months ago and have been really happy with the product. No more guesswork or walking up and down to go check temperatures.

The graphs on the app could be a bit better it is very basic, but the ability to boost the temperature helps when you need the extra temperature to keep the wife happy. It is very easy to create and delete timers on the app.

It was very easy to install and get the geyserwalla up and running.

Thanks @JacoG

I see that there are a few other members that have had some experience with the Geyserwala. 

@FFJG, @Mirkywaters, @shovelhead, @root, @Ken I do you still have the Geyserwala, would care to share your opinions on it to help me make a buying decision?

@zabdab Yes, I still have the Geyserwala and am very happy with it.  I have integrated it into Home Assistant and Apple iOS for control and automation also.  Great Product.
