Rover: an SMS+Arduino electric fence controller

Use text messages to control your ⚡ fence.

Don't get zapped when you're out in the field and need to fix the fence. Text Rover and they'll turn it off for you. When it's fixed, another text will turn back on. Rover can even text you when your power goes out, so you'll know when your fence is down.

Inspired by Fido.
