Thanks, although sounds like I'm better off just using the tp linkMWR902AC I have sitting in a drawer. Thoughts? Free, is well, free😂

+1 on the Raspberry Pi and Weewx front. I have that working nicely. The monthly reporting spits out the daily rainfall totals well. I’m sure there’s an easy way to compute a 24h rolling total from its stored records and display that in a customised web page report, if that’s what OP means? I’ve just not tried, but documentation is extensive. No licence needed. Just cost of the GW1000 and a RPi 4. Example report attached. Bonus point for spotting when I sent my WS80 back... :-)

HDD will not serve you with the Meteobridge unless you are just going to use the HDD for backup (mounted volume). The Meteobridge requires the use of approved SLC SD card.

Yes  exactly. The drive would be for archive and backup.

Sure but the MWR9902AC is if you load Meteobridge on it will just be a regular standard Meteobridge and not gain the RPI features.

I would plug a low profile USB storage stick in, and then have the drive elsewhere on the network to a proper backup location with version control or use a NAS. Then you rsync the backup files over to this local hard drive location (or copy if mounted as a network location) which has the proper backup with version control software and that does remote off site copy.

Heres the link to ecowitt, maybe everyone could comment, so ecowitt gives it a thought to update it.
