I have an Ambient WS-2000. It has much better capabilities than the Sainslogic unit. Event, daily, weekly, monthly, and annual precipitation always displayed. All numeric history also available via a button. Hi/Lo alarms. Weather station is on the web, so anyone can see it if you want. Much better!

You need to add another test - a long term one which checks whether it's still functioning after a few years. Lots of stuff works great out of the box, a year or so down the line it goes in the bin.

Ideally it would be compostable

Seconded. I would want to mount a weather station on a high pole so that my house would not interfere with the wind detected by the weather station. Once it goes up, I would not be inclined to go get it any time soon.

That’s a great question. I waould like to know if there is an inexpensive reliable product for camping. I see models online for hygrometers. The reviews all say that the humidity or temperature stops working. I have a phone for generalizing. I like testing gear and to be more accurate would be great. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I see tempro and accurite online the most. Would like to know if those devices are any good.

I think this is of more use to an allotment/urban garden site, if only to get a general idea of what's going on. But even then you'd want that data saved to the cloud, and some way of tracking/organizing it with an ap on your phone/PC/laptop.

Maybe not for gardening, but I very much want to know about the wind and humidity. When there are high winds, I need to go check that the furniture and some other things are secure so the don't blow away. Additionally, my region gets "red flag warnings" for wildfires when humidity is low, wind speed is high, and the direction is from the north or northeast.

The problem with those integrated weather stations is that they're too integrated. The optimal points to measure temp, wind, rain, etc. differ. Like wind is correctly measure at higher height above ground, while the precipitation at a lower, closer to ground. Temperature measurement also depends for what purpose it is meant - meteorological measurement requires certain distance from the ground (1.5 - 2m) and not above any cement or radiating cover of the ground, preferable is grass. So how an integrated unit brings these together in one spot is hard to swallow. It is still better than nothing, though, but one should have the right expectations.

Great review. I'm also curious how it holds up in mid summer, when the sun can heat up the unit and impact temperature accuracy. My Acurite station has a little solar powered fan that is supposed to keep the unit from reading too high, and it works most of the time, but not always. You can even buy a bigger solar panel for it to boost the fan, but my attitude is that if they identified a problem, they should ship the bigger panels with all of their units.
