I like the Ecowitt GW-1000 for importing data, it uses the Interceptor > driver.

For really open & dirty, there is PiWeather daughter board, with diverse supporting projects (not endeavoured myself). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

You can't get more open than WeatherFlow, although (at this time) the rain measurements are not good. Otherwise pretty slick. Solar panel, no moving parts, and a great set of programming API 'and' an existing weewx driver that works great. Excellent customer service. Very active forums on their site too. Lots of software integrations from the user community. (disclaimer - I'm a beta tester for them) WF just came out with their new Tempest system. I would expect some folks with the previous SmartWeather gear might be looking to sell gently used stuff for a good price, if you look around. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
