After reading the reviews on weather stations I was concerned. I decided to stay with the top two makers. I purchased the La Crosse ws-2811. The construction quality was 200% + better than one that I looked at four years ago. I had a little trouble connecting to the wind sensor. I left it outside for two day to insure that the batteries had been fully charged. On the second day I lost the outdoor temperature readings. I opened up the compartment for the batteries in the thermo-hygro sensor and the batteries had sort of buckled and not making connection. I put a strip of tape across the batteries to hold them in place and the outdoor temperature was instantly received but not the wind and rain. Tried resetting the display and wind sensor with no luck. Removed & reinstalled the batteries from the display unit and everything worked.

The sub-vendor had to order it from La Crosse because they did not not have it in stock as they said they did. The WS works fine except that it loses connection to the PC when it goes to sleep so I installed the USB connection and software on my Windows Home Server. But if it fails to continue to work I will not purchase another La Crosse product mostly because of their "support" team. On 1/7/2011 I emailed them a list of questions that I wanted answers to but after 3 additional...

You have to go thru hours and hours of taking batteries in and out, pressing buttons, sequences of following poorly written translated directions trying to get all the sensors to work. It is NOT plug and play!! |
