I am impatiently awaiting the arrival of my new Vantage Pro2 Plus (moving from Ambient Weather hardware). I already use a Meteobridge and intend to continue to use it with the new VP2. I know that I can use Davis's Weatherlink IP or Weatherlink USB or Belfryboy's USB clone to connect to my Meteobridge (the MeteoStick is another option but it seems to have more disadvantages than the others)
From what I have gleaned, the WeatherLinkIP is fairly lame and the only REAL advantage I see is that it directly sends to Davis's WeatherLink reporting site, BUT there are issues if you are wanting to pull data from it at a heavy rate. The one advantage I saw to the new WeatherLink2 site was to use it on an iPad in kiosk mode as a full time display. I am NOT wed to sending data to Davis.
Given the issues with the WeatherLinkIP reporting frequency, does the USB approach, in particular Belfryboy's clone have issues feeding data at real-time rates from the display? Again, I can live without Davis's Weatherlink2 Site as I already report to quite a few sites from my Meteobridge and really prefer to continue having the Meteobridge be my primary fed to everyone.
I am comfortable with setting up any of the options, but I really want real-time updates feeding into the Meteobridge.
Thoughts?
Thanks
David
