For those of you who have been longing for a way of keeping track of your hive weights but don't need the satellite connection side of our commercial product, have a look at this...

We have just released a campaign on the Indiegogo platform for a WiFi version of our scales and an accompanying smartphone app that we think will be a great tool for backyard beekeepers, researchers and hobbyists.

Please have a look here for more details and you can sign up for one, and even get invloved in the development. Note it is an all or nothing campaign so if we don't reach the target (in 60 days) we will not be able to develop it at this time.

Please help us get the word out about this by sharing this link with all those interested in beekeeping: http://igg.me/at/wifibees

Any questions let us know at: info@hivemind.co.nz or on the Indiegogo page.

We are excited to have Valley Industries, based in Taree NSW, joining us as Hivemind distributors for New South Wales.

Mark Page, who heads up their Beekeeping Supplies division will be the point of contact. Here is Mark on the left getting some beard growing tips at last years PlanetFest.
