I tried and tried on two different computers to make the kevin key acurite bridge reader app work, and I got nowhere on either one. So it looks like that app is a waste of time if you are thinking about it. If you don't have the right kind of ethernet card, it won't work apparently.
I also don't like what I see on the cheaper version of ambient being it only reports every five minutes. You have to go up to the all in one unit to get rapid updates. Also if you buy the weatherwise or ambient version station of the link I posted, the radiation shield is not good. You will need to buy the radiation shield ambient sells to get accurate readings from what I read.
There is also a weatherwise station not too far from me where their temp is too high on hot days by 6-8 degrees regularly. I thought it might be location, but it's the radiation shield.
Right now, I think I will wait a while before going any further. As soon as I buy something, I just know my acurite 5n1 will die...
I still want to paint the 5n1 and plan to do soon.
