The Tesla 4 TR is an integrated register that combines precision counting with an unlicensed 1-watt transmission for automated meter reading in a single device. The integrated design has no wires that can be pulled or damaged, making it a very easy solution to install and maintain. The powerful 1-watt transmission and attached external antenna allow the Tesla 4 TR to penetrate tough meter pit conditions that other technologies have trouble negotiating. The Tesla 4 TR works well in both AMR and AMI systems, but is especially suited for AMR drive-by reading because of its powerful transmission and integrated design.
