    monitor water level with ultrasonic system to better than 1/2" allows for calculating water usage and also water leakage with sufficient accuracy.
    system could also shut down tank outlet if major leak determined. would also have to shut down pressure pump...
    system would report usage data and alarm status through webpage interface, phone app, etc.

    Recieved my two Moteino controllers and a Raspberry Pi. very easy stuff to work with, of course. Testing out codebender.cc for programming the moteinos, works great! love it, so much lighter than Eclipse it's hard to even compare.

    presently bringing up the RPi according to Lowpower.com structure for an internet gateway, made wireless with a serially attached moteino.

    juicy stuff indeed.

    also presently stuck in a blizzard in Boston...
