Just wondering if there is a simple alternative to a 2nd Console to display my Vantage Vue current In/Out Weather (temp, humidity, wind) elsewhere in my house?

I guess I can just put a cheap Win10 tablet set to my Weather Underground station but thought there might be a nicer option.

Thanks,

Bret/N4SRN

The only other product I'm aware of is the repeater that Davis sells.


There's a battery powered one on eBay going for a dirt cheap price:

Ends in a couple of hours though.

My bad! I’ve edited my title and question to clarify I’m asking for a 2nd remote display/monitor to display the weather data elsewhere in my house.

Ah, sorry. I thought you were asking if there was an alternative to using a console as a repeater (since the consoles can retransmit).

Unfortunately, other than something like a tablet, the davis consoles are really the only option.

Using my WiFilogger you will be able to open web site with your current data on any device at your home with web browser (laptop/smart TV, smartphone etc.)
It's a html mirror of your console.

And you can have WiFiLogger upload to Weatherlink and then see the weatherlink.com v2 bulletin...


Enjoy,

Thanks - looks nice. I already use MeteoBridge so have my data uploading to Internet via that system.

Meteobridge, of course, has the same sort of page as the WifiLogger.  And there is the quick view page(s) from Smartbedded that could be displayed on a cheap tablet or even old phone.
