I just purchased this rain gauge from a seller on eBay brand new never used. The issue I'm having is the LCD display. I've attached two photos. Sure I can read it from an angle, but I wanna read it from straight on. The two photos demonstrate an angle view as well as straight on. Any suggestion(s) / assistance offered? I placed a call to Rainwise Customer Support but no return call as of yet.

Have you tried new batteries?  Some LCD screens wash out looking directly at them as the batteries fade.....

Agreed. I just had my display hooked up a few weeks ago after not being used for years and the display was very dim. I replaced the battery and all was well.

The rain gauge is BRAND NEW, never used. I placed two sets of new batteries in the indoor display, but no luck.

Then I guess it's bad. Maybe that's why it was on ebay. RW may "good will" it, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
