AcuRite Iris (5-in-1) Home Weather Station with Wi-Fi Connection to Weather Underground with Temperature, Humidity, Wind Speed/Direction, and Rainfall (01540M), Black

Solid product with many mounting options. The only thing I would have liked to have seen is rechargeable batteries in the unit (using the solar panels to keep it charged). Wi-Fi connectivity is fiddly but it works.

Es sumamente sencillo de instalar y usar, lo utilizo a bordo y en casa para lo q fué creado.

Funciona bien

Adjusting the wind direction "vane" involves lots of force, luckily i didnt break it. Wifipasword lengh is limited to 31 characters by setup program to configure monitor to send info to WU.

It was really a pain to get connected to the Wi-Fi to set up the unit. If you have a PC it will work better than a smartphone or a tablet. Smartphones and tablets want to connect to the internet through a Wi-Fi connection and they'll keep switching to another connection. Once you figure out that that's a problem you are able to set it up. I was just lazy and didn't want to get up to get my laptop. I really feel that this should have a USB connection even if it's just a serial connection so that set up can be much easier. Overall I like the unit quite a bit. I put it up just in time for the hurricane to come close to shore in Florida where I live. It was more a tropical storm than anything but it was nice having it. I like the fact that you can hard reset the unit by unplugging the power supply and removing one of the batteries. The weather underground isn't very impressive. It gives me different readings than what is actually on the display even though I'm checking my base unit through the weatherunderground. The weather underground also doesn't calculate how many inches per hour are falling the same as the unit does. I'm debating the usefulness of the weather underground because it's weather prediction really doesn't do anything. Big blue AKA IBM needs to get their act together with the weather underground. The weather prediction for stormy hasn't moved since I plugged the unit in two weeks ago. Thanks IBM. I was surprised it doesn't connect to my lightning detector since it was a suggested accessory by Amazon. Overall the unit works pretty well but I don't like so far the functionality of the display from the standpoint of going back and looking at history. I have an older accurite weather system that I may plug back in. It was starting to act Goofy. It locked on the boot screen and I had a heck of a Time getting it to reboot so I bought this system. I went with the Wi-Fi thinking I would get more benefit out of it but not really. I would have posted some pictures but the Amazon app isn't letting me so sorry
