Support for solar and UV sensors.
« on: November 29, 2011, 01:10:28 AM »
Well this item has been discussed a while back. Figured I'd post a support discussion about adding UV and solar to the sensor suit. Maybe a 6 N 1 or 7 N 1. This may require a little extra engineering to the sensor module. Or maybe offer solar and/or UV as an extra like Davis does on their non-Plus Vantage Pro2 stations. Today I glanced at Acu-rite's large line of stations. Now I think it's time to move up and offer something more.

I live in an apartment and for the moment am not a home weather watcher.

I am a storm chaser.

If it could be done without significantly raising the price point, it would be interesting to record both if for no other reason than trying to forecast cooling/heating costs.  I don't know if I'd pay more than another $20 for the feature, though.....
