Field Testing & Product Analysis
The BroodMinder-W sits discreetly beneath the rear of your hive bottom board, recording precision weight shifts down to 0.01 lbs every hour. Built-in solar charging and Bluetooth/cellular gateway sync allow beekeepers to track the spring honey flow, detect swarms instantly through sudden weight drop alerts, and monitor winter stores without opening the colony.
