RV Weather Station

Looking for recommendations for a RV weather station (wind speed, temp, barometer).

I have TWO Acu Rite systems which I bought on Amazon.

The 5 sensor array for the home unit is mounted 14 feet over a 6 foot fence so as to get the sensor up into "clean" air for accurate readings.

The home unit has a Wi-Fi connection so that I can see the Home weather on my phone while on the road.



The sensor array for the RV unit is mounted 8 feet above the roof for the same reason.

The sensor array does NOT stay up when travelling.

In my opinion, it is not a good idea to mount the sensor array on a telescoping "flag" pole. The weight of the array will cause the pole to collapse.



The link between both sensor arrays and their display is wireless. The sensor array uses 4 AA batteries. I've had the home unit for about 3 years and the RV unit for about 2 years. Battery life seems to be about 9 - 12 months.

Each unit has its own display, here is the information that it shows. The display can be plug-in or battery (6 ea. AA). The display is actually rectangular, but the angle of the picture makes it look funny.



PM me if you want or need any additional information.
