4.0 out of 5 starsGood Features at a reasonable price
Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2007
**Update after multiple months use** - overall works well, but had frequent issues with station staying recognized by PC (may be PC issue). Also had to occasionally reset the exterior sensors for the temperature to be correctly received on the base unit. Annoying to take unit down from raised mast to reset.
--------------------------------------------------------
The WMR-100 includes a good # of features at a reasonable price. The display unit allows for a single temperature and humidity, wind speed and direction, time and ONE of the following: air pressure, rain fall, UV index (with optional sensor) - seeing all on one screen would have been nice but not a major disadvantage.
Setup and installation were easy. The temperature, wind direction and speed sensors are in one combined unit, with a separate rain sensor - no wires between the two. The mounting hardware allows for either an included pole mount, or attachment to an existing pole or the side of a structure. The included pole is fairly short, so an additional pole would be required unless living in an area with few obstructions.
The main advantage I found is the ability to connect to a computer providing better viewing of history, trends as well as posting to the internet. The setup was easy, although the included software seemed "buggy", so would recommend alternate software which is easy to locate on the internet.
Summary good unit with nice amount of features for price. Only improvements could be different mounting hardware and all data on the display at one time.
