ECOWITT Rain Gauge, Weather Forecast High Precision Digital Rain Gauge Wireless Self-emptying Collector with Rainfall Alert Rainfall History Indoor Temperature Humidity WH5360A 868…

Great device for measuring rainfall on my back garden. Easy to install and use

Did not seem to record rainfall very accurately - often completely missing a reading during a shower. Then stopped working altogether. Tried everything - cleaning out the funnel changing the batteries - nothing works!

After having several high-priced, big name weather stations destroyed by ant infestations, I decided to buy separate temperature and raingauge systems. Only the raingauge would remain at the location the previous systems had occupied, and it needed to be sealed against ants getting into the electronics. The ECOWITT WH5360B appeared to meet that requirement so I ordered one. I was delighted when I unpacked it. The unit was indeed sealed and except for the mechanical tipping bucket mechanism that had to be open to the rainfall, everything was totally enclosed in a plastic housing with no entrances for small pests. The tipper sent its tips to the electronics with a magnet, so there were no wires to be chewed and no holes for wires were needed. The assembly instructions, both the text and the drawings, were clear and easy to follow. All the necessary parts were provided except for the batteries (1 AA lithium for the sensor and 3 AA alkaline or lithium for the console). The console had no trouble locking onto the sensor's signal and it has never lost connectivity since I installed the sensor about 50 feet away from the house. The calibration feature deserves comment. Several reviewers complained about its accuracy and that had concerned me. This unit is exceptional in that it has an internal electronic calibration setting that can be adjusted any of three ways. There is a procedure presented in the manual using rainfall collected from the gauge after a storm, or you can pour known amounts of water SLOWLY into the gauge, or you can compare the reading with a nearby gauge of known calibration. Any of them will work. Unless your unit is actually malfunctioning, you should have accurate readings if you take the time to calibrate it. Both the sensor and the console look nice. The display is an attractive addition to the wall in our Florida room and we have been delighted with its performance.

works perfectly and cheaper than most

Der Regenmesser war innerhalb 2min aufgebaut, nach einlegen der Battereien hat sich die Basisstation mit dem Regenmesser automatisch verbunden. Nun zum Wichtigsten: der Regenmesser misst exakt, ich habe heute dreimal Vergleichsmessungen vorgenommen (analog zu digital), Ergebnis war eine Punktlandung. Insofern ist der Regenmesser aus meiner Sicht eine Empfehlung.

Easy to install fast delivery now just need to get some rain to see how it works

Fantastisch, vooral met de interne vochtigheidsmeter er bij.
