AcuRite Iris (5-in-1) Home Weather Station with Wi-Fi Connection to Weather Underground with Temperature, Humidity, Wind Speed/Direction, and Rainfall (01540M), Black

I've always wanted a weather station, especially living out west because I've found that weather can vary greatly from official reports just a few miles away.The setup was (relatively) easy, pop the batteries in and they began communicating immediately. The mounting equipment supplied seems to allow for a number of options and went seamlessly.Getting the unit to connect to my wifi was... a tad unusual, but ultimately not that difficult. I had a few issues getting my phone to connect to the units wifi, but that was more due to my phones wifi settings than the unit itself and setting up the weather underground account and getting my data to upload was seamless.I was disappointed that this unit doesn't connect to the myacurite app, however it does state this in the manufacturers comments, so more my fault in not carefully reading them first, however the weather underground web site does allow me to remotely see the data I'm interested in.I was surprised at how accurate the wind speed and direction sensors are despite my suboptimal sensor location and the temperatures, indoor and outdoor appear accurate compared to my thermostat and other neighborhood readings.Within hours, the unit confirmed what I've always suspected. We live at a slightly higher altitude than most nearby sensors and tend to get slightly different wind speeds and directions than many of our neighbors. Being in southern California, living away from the coast, I was most interested in the wind direction. Winds from the south and west mean more temperate temperatures and higher humidity. Winds from the north and east mean drier and hotter temperatures and the wind direction almost always changes from desert winds to coastal some time during the afternoon. Knowing when those winds shift gives me a good idea whether it's going to be hotter or cooler in an hour or two.I haven't been able to judge the rain sensor, however rain is so rare here, that isn't really my primary interest.

Es sumamente sencillo de instalar y usar, lo utilizo a bordo y en casa para lo q fué creado.

Adjusting the wind direction "vane" involves lots of force, luckily i didnt break it.Wifipasword lengh is limited to 31 characters by setup program to configure monitor to send info to WU.

Setting up the AcuRite Iris (5-in-1) Home Weather Station was a breeze from start to finish. The instructions were clear, and I was able to get everything up and running in no time. Connecting the station to Wi-Fi and integrating it with Weather Underground was straightforward, and I was impressed with how quickly it synced up.The station itself is well-built and provides accurate weather data. I particularly like the 5-in-1 functionality, which gives comprehensive readings including temperature, humidity, wind speed, and more. It's been a great addition to my home, providing real-time updates that I can access from anywhere via the Weather Underground app.Overall, I'm very pleased with the AcuRite Iris weather station. It's reliable, easy to use, and offers excellent value for anyone interested in monitoring their local weather conditions.
