I am very disappointed in this weather station. The wind sensor received with the kit was faulty and had to be replaced. After setting up the system and getting it working it only took a matter of two to three weeks for the rain gauge to stop working and the wind sensor to stop recording direction. I paid the higher price and expected much more from this unit. Anybody that wants to watch the weather seriously should not consider this unit. I would consider it a toy except for the amount of time and energy it takes to set up properly is not for children. I would hope that Amazon and the weather channel both remove there support of this unit.
