1 Storage and operation above +20°C / +68°F may reduce battery life. Minimum distance measured is de-rated to 20cm with temperatures <0°C / +32°F. 

2 Based on a measurement to a flat liquid target of size 30cm2 / 4.7”2. Max range is 10m, however, this is reduced to 8m at temperatures of -20°C / - 4°F.

3 Based on one data drop per day in standard configuration at a location with adequate CAT-M1/NB-IoT coverage.
