Weather Shop Reviews

"Set up reasonably straightforward however connecting to weather websites was a challenge. Instructions and videos required strong interpretation. However so far excited and pleased with the weather station. "

"After my previous Weather Station by another manufacturer failed due to age I decided to go for the Vantage Vue device; this is a mighty impressive piece of kit which offers so much information to me and probably more as I explore it's potential. Definitely worth spending the extra money over other manufacturer's cheaper devices. I read the long version instructions for device and console several times before installation which turned out to be very easy. Recommend it strongly. "

"All good up to know, we will see if it goes wrong thats when you really know, quick delivery and what looks like (up to know) a great product"

"This device was purchased to replace an extinct Omicron weather station which had failed after 15 years of good service. The Accur8 has a lot more features and has a clear, colour display. It's easy to set up and the external sensor has a strong signal from 20 metres away. Internal and external temperature readings appear to be very accurate as does the barometric pressure readings, the latter displayed as a digital reading and a 12 hour trend graph. Addional features such a moon phase and low-mid-high tide indicator are useful. Unlike my old device, the Accur8 is mains powered via a supplied plug transformer with AA battery back up, so needs to be located near a power supply. The bright display can easily be turned off if necessary. The remote sensor is battery powered and there is a battery strength indicator for the external sensor included in the main display. The device includes an alarm clock with snooze function which seems a bit unecessary and the instructions are adequate, though not as comprehensive as they might be. An additional feature is a weather forcaster (based on barometric pressure)which is a bit hit and miss and claims to be \"70 - 75% accurate\" which seems about right. It's a well made, easy to use device and represents very good value for money. "

"I've gone from an old Davis Vantage Pro (RIP) to this PWS and so far I'm finding it a pretty good package. I'm enjoying uploading data to the web and sharing with friends and neighbours, which I couldn't do before. The console is the only real let down. The weather prediction is poor compared to the Davies and the display not as useful. It would be helpful if there was an indication of what the pressure is doing rather than just a number. You can always look at the webpage, but I like a quick glance to see what's happening "

"The barometer looks good and is easy to use. My partner has hung it on his office wall and enjoys setting it and checking the pressure as well as temperature and humidity."

"Works well. Nice and compact sitting on my bbok shelf. Slight hiccup setting up: \"Mode\" button in the instructions doesn't exist - it should say \"Set\" button. "
