I have the Grobo 2 back up, but scared to put any water in it.

I understand. I had to unplug and reset the other day because if you accidentally hit drain instead of fill. There’s no way back accept to unplug. It won’t cancel on its own. FYI

That would be OK but Imagine it draining when you’re sitting in the living room watching TV.

I feel like this could happen at anytime, I imagine the unit 1 with the hose inside it would still be a disaster and I know all to well with the water running out, my initial drain hose had a slice in it and would drain half in the bucket and half on my floor, was a pain for the first few weeks but @Todd.grobo hooked me up with the replacement hose free of charge kudos to him and the team!!

I wonder if it could be a software issue or it is a glitch in the water sensors, or what could have triggered it to do so!! HMMMM

@Todd.grobo @Stephen I think and only a GUESS, the Grobo iPhone app might have an issue as I did a drain and fill in Grobo “1” only a little before this happened. Then a little after the Grobo “2” just started draining.

There is my electrical outlet, and there is the Grobo 2 drain hose.
NOW do you see WHY I don’t want it draining unless I know it is? and WHY that can lead to a big issueif it starts to drain on its own without me knowing?

I have 2 units and when switching from 1 to 2, it will show I am on 2 but it never refreshed 2. I know this because I hit the open door with my phone as I never use the back button and the light on the other unit comes on. Then I go back and reselect my unit 2 and try to open the door again and it works.
I believe I am just rushing through.
The unit doesn’t drain on its own. There could be a leak somewhere which could be investigated as well.
Couple things at play here, so always best to open a ticket as he’s done. We’ll get it resolved.

No it is faulty. I just did a fill and second it finished, it emptied on the floor again. I am standing here watching it now. App is closed, said fill complete. I finished up, 5 seconds later I hear4 somehting, look over and its draining on the floor. I was right there with a bucket though so not much got on the floor.
So SOMETHING is wrong.
Also now the pump will not even turn off, it is empty and still going. I had to unplug it.

Gonna leave it like this until we figure it out. Maybe one of the water sensors is off, I dont know.

Only troubleshooting, I put in about 1 gallon of water to keep the probes and everything wet and that amount did not cause any issues. The light, pump and fan also seem to be working now.
Maybe in an hour, I will add a little more water to see IF I can trigger a drain.
I poured in this water withOUT going thru the app. Opened the top and poured it in as I want to not go thru the app and see what happens.
I wanted to make sure people know, I am OK fooling with this and I know it will work out in the end. So sorry for all my fussing, if not so close to Thanksgiving I might not even care but I need to get that room fixed up as people will be over later this week.

I filled the Grobo manually and started a “test” grow to see what happens. I dont have a seed or any nutes, going to see what happens with the water.
I am only GUESSING, but I think, this issue might only effect people with more than 1 Grobo in the app. I might remove Grobo 1 from the app to see what happens if I need to. Also not sure if only the iPhone app or also Android, I use an iPhone.
