WalTech Vision 2.0
WalTech AI Assistant
Micro-Air has buttons and menus. WalTech has a built-in AI that understands you.
"Hey WalTech, cool my RV to 68 and turn on the bedroom plug."
"Done. AC is set to 68°F in cool mode. Bedroom smart plug is now on. Room temperature is currently 74°F - should reach your target in about 15 minutes."
"What's my propane level?"
"Your propane tank is at 42%. Based on your current usage, you have about 6 days before you'll need a refill."
Try doing that with a Micro-Air.
WalTech Smart Hub
Micro-Air controls your AC. That's it. WalTech connects your entire RV.
Connect Mopeka tank sensors. See your propane level on the screen or the app. Get alerts before you run out. Micro-Air can't do this.
Control lights, fans, or any device plugged into a smart plug - from the thermostat screen or your phone. Automate your RV.
Place sensors in different areas of your RV. Monitor each zone independently. Set alerts for each one.
Set temperature and humidity thresholds. WalTech alerts you over cellular - even when campground WiFi is down. Your pets are always protected.
Know where your RV is at all times. Coordinates show in the app. Great for storage, lending, or peace of mind.
See exactly what your AC and heat cost you per day. Track runtime, set propane and electricity rates. Know where your money goes.
The WiFi Problem
Micro-Air EasyTouch
No WiFi = no remote access. You can't check the temperature. You can't get alerts. You won't know the AC stopped until you walk back and find a 110 degree RV.
WalTech Vision 2.0
Built-in cellular kicks in automatically. Your phone buzzes the moment the temp crosses your threshold. You open the app at the pool and turn the AC back on. Your dog is safe.
The Real Cost
Micro-Air EasyTouch
~$250-300
WiFi thermostat only
WalTech Vision 2.0

Smart RV command center
For about the same price, you get a thermostat and a smart hub and an AI assistant and cellular connectivity and GPS. Not just a thermostat.
