Just wondering if there other wireless sensors available that are compatible with my Davis equipment and/or with my wifi network and PC running Weather Display.

Leaf Wetness/Soil Moisture/Temperature (all sensors on cables)

With my standard size desert city lot I'm not looking for additional temp, rain, wind, moisture sensors. I guess I'm looking for something like solar, UV, air quality or ??? sensors.

I don't know if there is anything that would connect to and communicate through the Vantage Vue. I know the Pro 2 console can receive data from other devices but does that mean just additional sensor suites? The Davis solar and UV sensors I see seem to need to connect to the Pro 2 sensor suite.

So something that is one of:
- connects to and communicates through the Vue
- is/simulates a Davis unit and can broadcast direct to the Pro 2 console
- wirelessly connects to my PC running Weather Display

The Vantage Vue console works with a VP2 running solar and UV sensors. I recently upgraded from a Vue to a VP2 ISS for around $300.00. Re-used the Vue console, added a Solar sensor and called it good.
