If you're pairing EID tag reading with your weighing setup and want everything talking to each other without a lot of fuss, the Thunderbird HR-EID Tag Reader is built for exactly that. It works hand in hand with the Thunderbird T40 indicator and the free Thunderbird Data Management app to capture EID data from your animals at weigh time and send it straight to the NLIS database. Less manual entry, fewer mistakes, and more time to get on with the job.
The HR-EID pairs with the Thunderbird Data Management app which is available on both iOS and Android, so whatever phone you're running it'll work. Once connected, the app captures your animal's EID alongside their weight and transfers the data directly to NLIS. For anyone who's spent time manually reconciling weigh records with NLIS submissions, this is a genuine time saver that pays for itself quickly.
At 650mm in length the HR-EID is designed to be comfortable to use when you're working through cattle or sheep in the yards. The high quality LCD display with backlight means you can read the tag information clearly even in low light conditions, which is handy for early morning or late afternoon work. It's a practical piece of gear that's designed around how you actually work, not how someone in an office imagined you might work.
The HR-EID runs on an internal lithium battery and comes with a mains charger supplied, so you're not sourcing extra accessories before you can get started. Charge it up, connect it to the app, pair it with your T40, and you've got a complete EID capture and weighing system that handles your NLIS obligations at the same time as you're getting weights.
