Where Hunter NODE-BT Earns Its Keep (and Where It Does Not)

Hunter NODE-BT sits on the valve, talks Bluetooth from a phone, and runs on a DC latching solenoid. No trench back to the garage for wire. That is the entire value proposition.

Use it for median strips, remote agricultural taps, and temporary establishment watering. Do not sell it as a full-home replacement when a Pro-C or X2 already exists — the homeowner will hate managing zones one Bluetooth session at a time.

Carry spare batteries on the truck. A dead NODE in August looks like a failed irrigation design even when the hydraulics are fine.
