How does an overpriced wifi weighing scales track C02 level?
The rest of the advertised functions are, to use their own marketing description style... DUMB AS F*CK

Well, as you say, it's just a weighing scales - It's the amount (weight) of CO2 in your cylinder, not your carbonation level?

I've a much better system
Kick the side
If it "pings" it's empty
If it "thonks" it's full
Alternatively if you need to know it's half full use a 5 quid suspended bag scales

Absolutely but I think this is the lazy "no look ... internet of things" way of doing things ... maybe it's for the millennials!

^ this. I only did kegging in small 4L growlers (where the level didnt matter) but once I started using half size cornies, this was a great trick. Mind you the cooling in those cases was an ice bath ...
