« Last post by Steve on October 05, 2026, 11:01:02 PM »Soon to be better than new! I just received a package from Scaled Instruments containing an AC remote sensor transmitter. This will replace my always troublesome battery/solar version that’s now 15 years old. It will be mounted upstairs in our soon to be built barn, which will have the anemometer relocated to the roof. That’ll probably be the most accurate of the four locations it has been mounted.

« Last post by Dave13 on October 03, 2026, 11:10:52 PM »Hi Edouard,
Thank you for the information, this certainly gives me options for replacing my old hardware when the time comes.
Do you know if the lightning sensor is compatible with the HP2564? https://www.ecowitt.com/shop/goodsDetail/251#

Weather Hardware/Measurement / Ecowitt is certainly an option. (Re: New Hardware Advice)
« Last post by elagache on October 03, 2026, 10:41:58 PM »Dear Dave, Blick, and WeatherCat faithful,
Sorry for the belated reply but a quick comment.
I run both Davis and Ecowitt so that I have the extra sensors. Stu has commented favorably on the Ecowitt stations:
https://athena.trixology.com/index.php?topic=3673.msg35074#msg35074
Here is the website for Ecowitt:
https://www.ecowitt.com/
If you want to run it with WeatherCat you need to have a Ethernet Wi-Fi gateway in addition to a console if you want it:

I ended up buying this sensor array and console:
https://www.ecowitt.com/shop/goodsDetail/251#
I bought it somewhat by accident but I'm pleased with the results.
In my case I was particularly anxious to obtain the air pollution sensor:

Thus far, the US west coast wildfire season has been uneventful, but I prefer to be vigilant than otherwise!
I don't think Ecowitt equipement is as accurate as Davis, but it is quite good. If you want to get your weather equipment back in operation at a modest cost it is well worth considering.

I would like to know what wireless weather station hardware others are using with WeatherCat, other than Davis, and how reliable it has been with accuracy.
