I can't even find specs on the thing other than tx range. I "assume" it's comparable to the old RW gear, but who knows. One thing for sure, whoever did the video has no conception of proper siting with the PWS on top of not only a roof, but a black shingled roof. Really?

I called them to ask about the WIFI vs Cellular and was told the Cell ability was more for isolated stations that needed longer range.

The Weather Station Experts has a YouTube channel and they covered this station. Looks interesting.

The Kestrelmet is similar to the Rainwise MK III, but using with the Ambient Weather Window only updates every minute: so you will not be able to see wind gusts or such……

Not only that, but the big tree next to the house causing a rain shadow
