Evening, Im looking for some advice, my previous station was a maplin FG8Y I think but was a fine offset clone, Which died due to the weather, high winds and exposure. I want to replace it but a bit like the post below I have a limited budget. Currently £235 in the station fund but the Mrs has put her foot down and it looks like I wont be able to stretch must further.
In an ideal world I want to be able to upload to weather underground and have something that will survive the weather.
Yes Davis would be the best option and there is a uk store selling at £304 at the moment but the data logger puts it out of range. Second hand could be an option but Im always concerned about reliability.
I like the weather camera of the Bloomsky and there is a seller on ebay (currently on holiday) that seems to have a major stock of Bloomsky 1's and if I add it to a storm could be an option.
Netatmo seems to have a special on at the moment with an extra indoor module and if you buy the rain gauge and the windspeed you get free brackets as well as a £30 discount and a 2 year warranty
Windflow - spoke to them today and its like a netatmo but will be around USD300 when it goes on sale at the end of the year but will be selling to US and Canada first until stock is built up.
Is there anything I missing in the sub £300 mark that is reliable.
take it importing a Davis from the US is a no,no
Any thoughts / Pro / Cons or should I forget it and buy the Lego Rollercoaster
Thanks
