i added the tie-wrap to my station , as we have loads of birds so preventative , not sure how much impact it will have on the rain-fall , but I guess with a + - 10% error rate on my unit specification anyway, its probably not going to make a huge difference, we shall see
I also noticed when i first got that unit and tested the sensor, that any heavy rainfall could be lost as the bucket is tipping anyway. And any really small amount of rain, that does not tip the bucket would evaporate.
based on the above theory I assumed a few spikes may be OK
