Product Description
MAILBOX Alert is a smart device with sensors in your mailbox that sends out an alert when your mailbox is opened. That alert is a one time message, either via email or text, or both. Optionally, this device can also send you push notifications. MAILBOX Alert is configured to use your WiFi. The WiFi setup takes a few minutes with a smart phone or a laptop. Once your MAILBOX Alert has been setup, your email address and phone number need to be specified on the myspool.com device configuration page.
That page, as well as other user pages displaying device status and recent alerts, are in a secure user area on myspool.com. That area is also used for configuring settings such as text message content and hours of operation. It is accessible to owners of MAILBOX Alert devices.
When setup has been completed, every time your mailbox is opened, an email will be sent to you. If configured, you will also get a text message. The MAILBOX Alert has been successfully tested at over 400 feet from WiFi router and through some walls.
