lol. The dog bowls are not insulated. Even if they were, they are so big they would get to room temperature quickly. Most dogs do not want even cold water.
Only a true geek would make a hole through the floor to plumb a electronic water bowl lol...Now my solar powered chicken bunker doesn't seem so crazy, im also a geek lol.
@@gordoxxico9153 it’s a very heavy bowl. My dogs would never turn it over. The water is adjusted so it only comes out in a very small trickle when the sensor calls for water. Worst case is it would trickle while you were away but in four years, it’s been perfect.
Where did you route your drain hose? Any issues with malfunctioning? I’ve been researching how to build an autofill with a filter…but I worry about overfilling-My luck my house would flood!
Sorry, I replied to a different video. Actually, after a couple years, I am redoing it now because I remodeled the room. I am going to try it without a drain, and I will not be using the freshening up routine.
I am new at arduino programming would you be willing to share your sketch so I could mimic the project. Thank you

Why not get a patent on it for yourself?
This is the higher level of dog water bowl I've ever seen in my whole life in youtube
That's what I'm talking about!
Inventions that make a difference and save us time. Kudos 👏👏
Using engineering to help our pets and strays 😂😅
Great work. I need to build something like this for all my dogs. Keep up the content.
Sweet water bowl
The min you drilled holes in that yeti, you let out the argon gas that keeps the water cold between the double stainless walls.
lol. The dog bowls are not insulated. Even if they were, they are so big they would get to room temperature quickly. Most dogs do not want even cold water.
Absolutely love this

How do you clean it?
Great Job! thanks for sharing on the video. now, where can I obtain a completed one? Cheers!
Thanks. I have seen some self filling bowls on Amazon I think.
Can you list a complete parts list. I think this is a great idea. Thank you.
I added what I could find into the video.
Thank you very much. I am definitely going to put one of these together.
Would you be willing to share your Arduino Sketch info. I have never programmed one before. I am trying to learn it. Got my Boomer bowl today.
Build one for me!
The processor that you recommend is not available right now. Do you have any other recommendations for one?
Do you sell these already assembled? I would buy one!
Sorry but not really interested in selling them but thank you
Where did your previous gravity fed bowl with the lid come from. I would like to get one with a lid and not many options.
It was like this. the top lid it’s just for looks.

So what if they turn it over?
What’s gonna stop the water from flooding the house when away from home if sensor detects no water?

How much to build me one? 😃
Sorry bro, thanks but not my thing I’m retired and taking it easy.

A mini lathe prob would have worked better.
For what part?
I was asking the same thing why would he drill through a wooden floor
I actually remodeled that room with new porcelain floors and I’m going to route it through the sidewall now, but you have to get water to it somehow.
Really did not want to fill up those bowls
