***Update 6/2/2014 5:35pm ***
The link now shows the previous price of $30 and it’s unavailable for order now. 😦
I’ve purchased 2 and this afternoon and it’s still in process. I wonder what happen and will let you know if my order actually ships.
**Update 6/3/2014 9:30am**
It looks like the price is back now at $39.97 since yesterday, and I just got the email to update me that the tilt sensor was shipped. I’m kind of surprised how quickly it sold out.

Well, Lowe’s seems to have an issue with it’s web people. The price was $30 and now it’s $39.97 and shows available, but when you go to check out it says it’s not available. They really need someone who knows how to design a website.
agreed.
I called and asked for the tilt sensors on the first of June 6/1/14 and I was told that they didn’t have any yet. It’s now June 3rd and they are sold out? What kind of operation is that?
I found a store in Tennessee that has 5 of them. You might be able to call the store direct and have them ship you one.

The link doesn’t work, but I can see the zip code which gives me the address and phone number to call.

That’s it.
It’s funny that you would be so upset over a tilt sensor. Count your blessings if that’s your biggest problem. I’m sure they will become available in June like the announcement stated.
Hey Dan, it’s funny that you’d be an A$$ and leave a reply like that. We are here to help each other out and give feedback about things. Next time if you can’t contribute, then don’t leave nothing at all.
Agreed!
itatodd,
I’m not sure if Dan’s comment was for Barry or yours but I do agree we should express concerns about the releases. It does seem odd that the Orbit 12 station Irrigation was sent to stores first before listed as for sale online while the tilt sensor was put online first and we haven’t heard of any stores receiving them. Maybe we just happen to catch them while they were making changes or they were testing because it’s still not listed under the product listing at http://www.lowes.com/Iris-Products/_/N-1z0ym5g/pl#!
I received mine a few minutes ago. It pairs fine and it updates status OK (a little laggy perhaps), but I can’t get the setting to trigger the chime to stay checked (let alone work). I check the box, hit save, tilt the sensor, no sound. Open the device page back up and the checkmark is gone. Anyone else seeing this problem?
I had that problem with the chime setting also on the first 2. I just kept trying and it finally stuck. The 2nd pair I installed set the chime fine. It’s almost as though there’s a delay with iris allowing the setting on the initial install.
As far as the delay remember if you have the sensor installed on the door it has to rotate 90 degrees before it activates. If your using a notification to test response there’s also going to be a delay there also. The best way to determine the speed is to have it activate a light. Mine is immediate after the sensor has rotated 90 degrees.
Looks like there’s 5 in stock at a store by me. First I’ve seen it appear in an in store inventory. Only 1 out of all stores within my zip have them though
Great.. so looks like they are starting to pop up in stores now. None near me yet.
there are 2 at a store 25 miles from me, but knowing Lowe’s inventory system 1 of an item means they have 0. So if it says 2 I would say that is a mistake and they have 0. Why would they only ship 2 items to a store.
The store where I bought the irrigation controller had 3 on the shelf and showed 1. All of the stores in my area showed 1 in stock. After I purchased the controller that store showed 0 for several days and now they show 2. Go figure.
Received mine today.
Can’t believe how small it is.
Taped to the door, paired, beep setting worked, no issues.
Seems to work great.
All we need now is a magic rule for if it’s left open to message.
Very satisfied!
It’s kind of round about, but I wonder if this magic rule would work
“When someone turns a thermostat on, and any contact sensor is open then send someone a message”
Technically, my thermostat is always “on”
Wonder if it would tell you if the garage is open
Nevermind, I was confused, true the thermostat is “on” but it’s not tied to a mode so it doesn’t do what I wanted.
Looks like they’re available again.
