Magnus HAWKi vs Other Bluetooth Oil Tank Monitors

If you’re looking for a Bluetooth oil tank monitor, you’ll notice a lot of devices appear similar. The real difference is how consistent the level reading is over time and whether the monitor gives genuinely useful information (not just a number on a screen).

The Magnus HAWKi is a radar oil tank gauge designed as a proper smart oil tank monitor, with app features such as usage history, days-to-empty forecasting, alerts, and sharing access with other users.

Why some Bluetooth oil tank monitors feel “basic”

Many Bluetooth monitors are essentially a tank level indicator that updates when you check the app. That can be perfectly fine if all you want is a rough level.

Where customers often notice the difference is when they want more than “how much is left”: they want heating oil usage tracking, a realistic days to empty estimate, and a monitor they can trust through winter when consumption changes.

What HAWKi is built to do well

• Radar sensing for stable readings: Designed to work reliably regardless of tank shape and typical conditions inside the tank.
• Meaningful information in the app: Not just level in % or litres, but usage history and forecasting to help plan deliveries.
• Sharing: Multiple users can view the same tank data (useful for families, sites, caretakers, and maintenance teams).
• Outdoor-ready build: IP68-rated and designed for real-world outdoor oil tank environments.
