Hi Ed! Nice write up on the different weather stations. I currently have a Davis VP2 6152 and will be upgrading as a few parts are beginning to fail and in the long run, it’s probably more cost effective to upgrade. I’m now able to afford a new unit with the additional sensors, unlike 10 years ago when I got my current station, so I think that is the path I will go. Thank you for the info on the new console. I’m still deciding on whether or not I will get the new console or just use my old one.

Quick question. Have you ever done any write-ups on Bloomsky? They have an interesting product similar to the Tempest. Just curious if you have or not.

Thank you!!

Chris

En respuesta a Wayne. TBH, they're all made out of plastic. Curious: what is failing? The entire station or just certain parts. That's definitely something to add in here. I'm over 150 miles inland so I don't have the salt to deal with :)

I like the WS-5000, but it only lasts a few months in our marine environment. I’ve had 3 in the last 2 years. I’ll likely be trying the Davis Vantage Pro2 next.

I have a Tempest and it seems like it’s accuracy is lower on high wind days. I’m on a hill and winds can get really high. I’ve just re-installed a Davis Vantage Pro-2 and will be doing comparisons of the two. On rainfall accuracy, the Tempest varies. If the wind is low, Tempest is very accurate. If I have a lot of wind during the rain, accuracy suffers. Tech support with Tempest has been very good. They recalibrated the rain sensor and it helped.

En respuesta a Craig. No, thank you, we updated this page to reflect your questions! I should have included these initially, as relevant information was missing. We also have a new station here that we'll be testing this spring as well as a retest of some of the older stations, so it's a good time to do that!
