Our Verdict

The Waggle fills a niche no other product in this lineup covers: monitoring temperature and humidity in locations without WiFi. For breeders with barn whelping setups, detached kennel buildings, or rural properties where running WiFi isn't practical, the Waggle's 4G cellular connection sends real-time temperature and humidity alerts directly to your phone. If the whelping room drops below your set threshold — say the heat lamp fails at midnight — you get an instant alert. It's not a camera (no video or audio), but paired with a dedicated monitor like the Infant Optics for visual monitoring and a Waggle for environmental alerts, you have the most comprehensive whelping monitoring setup possible. The ongoing cellular plan cost is the main drawback.
