Product Description

The ProWeatherStationTM is a high performance wireless data logging weather station with advanced sensor technology resulting in good accuracy at a low cost. It provides instantaneous and historical data on Inside and Outside Temperature and Humidity, Wind Speed (average and gust), Wind Direction, Barometric Pressure and Rainfall. The backlit touch screen controller logs 4080 data points with adjustable (5 minute minimum) sample interval. There is a memory meter on the display that shows when the memory is getting full so the data can be downloaded and archived to a computer thru the built in USB port and included EasyWeather software. The unit has a radio controlled clock (WWVB) for improved accuracy. The controller runs on 3 AA batteries and can be mounted up to 300 feet away from the sensor array. The sensor array runs up to 2 years on 2 AA batteries so there are no worries with mounting the array on top of a building or tower. The ProWeatherStationTM comes with an advanced sensor array (anemometer, direction meter, temp/humidity sensor, rain gauge, mounting pole), wireless touch screen controller/display, USB cable for connection to a PC, EasyWeather software and pipe clamps for mounting the sensor array to a mast. Note: 5 AA batteries are required but not included.

5.0 out of 5 stars Weather Station Meets My Approval, July 28, 2010

I am pleased with this weather station. The installation process went well. There were different size miniature bolts and screws. The directions did not call out the differences so I used the wrong ones. But it was a simple fix. If you watch what you are doing and note the different sizes, you may be able to avoid this small problem. The transmitter range is good. I like having inside and outside temperature and humidity, wind speed and direction, rainfall totals, atmospheric barometric pressure, time and date at my fingertips. The inside display is visual well designed. It is also easily reprogrammed. It uses a touch screen and the process is intuitive. For example, the initial setup showed rainfall totals per hour. But my preference is rainfall totals over a 24 hour period. Touch rain on the controller and a "+" button appears on the screen. Touch it and the change was easily made.

I've had my ProWeatherStation for over a month now.

It comes in a very well designed box with everything needed to get the station up and running, except five AA size batteries.

The assembly/setup and software installation was straight forward following the enclosed instructions. The [...]

web site has the instructions and data sheet available for on line viewing (select - product - then "quick install guide" or "data sheet"

I feel the build quality of the station is very good.

I did have a problem with the station I received (it would randomly drop some outside sensor data) . Dealing with Tycon Power's

(seller) costumer service/tech support was a very positive experiance, all done via E mail. It appeared that they (cs/ts) didn't have any other problems to resolve but mine.

Cumulus (donationware) from [...] can be used with the ProWeatherStation if you want to upload

your data to the internet. (the included software does not have the internet feature)

A quality product with outstanding support at a good price. ProWeatherStation Wireless Data Logging Weather Station

I bought this item to replace an Oregon Scientific Wireless Rain Guage (which stopped working after a year)deciding that I wanted a piece of equipment that would give me more information at a reasonable price but had reliability. Installation and set up was easy with nothing extra to buy except a piece of galvanized pipe (I have an unusual installation). It took only abour 30 minutes to calculate and stabilize the readings it was sending. It has been in operation about 30 days now and works very well. I can't at thisa point say how reliable the system will be over time but so far, very good.
