You’d think that they’d already have these sensors made available when the unit was released. You don’t release a major product (or as was mentioned by OS, a “flagship” product) and not have any accessories for it!
They did say, “…We will … announce the latest weather stations and sensors by this year”… that’s a pretty good indication that it’ll be some time in 2017.
Went to the link and all I saw was an advert from 2016 offering a small weather display for $1 after purchase. I didn’t want to sign in to FB to see it. Any other links out there ?
The WMR500 is hideous looks like a cheap old mickey setup, im sure breeze blocks are more aerodynamic too,
there looks like there is no way to split the sensors, i wouldnt even trust that at 10ft let alone 10m lol
Then theres the wireless computing/cloud, so ya could be right about data protocol…
Surely the WMR500 is just a name and does not denote its flagship model, surely right?
I did notice the extra temp the other week Brian, noticed the price too, bet ya bottom dollar that will be
I had a WMR200 for a while and didn’t have much luck with it in Bristol. When I moved it down to Cornwall, the anemometer seized after a short time, due to the more extreme weather here and salt air
I now run the whole station on 1-wire / E-vane/Vortex and other sensors, brought up the last stock from Eric before he retired Hobby Boards.
Yeah, I’m slowly buying up spare bits for my WMR200 (only 3.5 years old) so I won’t get a big bill for a completely unfamiliar new station when one bit fails.
