And I just talked to Acurite – read them the “QC” number off the battery cover 
and they said “we’re sending you a new one”.  :)

Just did the “hard reset” routine – left batteries out for several hours.   The 
sensor is in a room where the tempo ranges from about 64-75.   Last night, for 
about 2 hours, it APPEARED to be reading OK – fluctuating right around 65, in 
line with a mercury thermometer I use for testing.   Came in this morning, it 
started a few degrees low (61 – mercury was 66) but has since climbed WAY 
above, mercury reading 75, sensor reading 87.8

 

Other than a bad sensor, anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance!

clay,

this is typical output from the lightning detector, as returned by rtl_433:

clay,

this is fixed in version 0.22 of weewx-sdr.  your sensor emits a hex 
message type of 0x47, but the previous parser was looking for only digits, 
not hex.

with a SDR configuration and sensor_map like this:

cmd = rtl_433 -q -U -G -F json
[[sensor_map]]
windDir = wind_dir.0BFA.Acurite5n1Packet
windSpeed = wind_speed.0BFA.Acurite5n1Packet
outTemp = temperature.0BFA.Acurite5n1Packet
outHumidity = humidity.0BFA.Acurite5n1Packet
outTempBatteryStatus = battery.0BFA.Acurite5n1Packet

extraHumid2 = humidity.526F.AcuriteLightningPacket
distance = distance.526F.AcuriteLightningPacket
strikes_total = strikes_total.526F.AcuriteLightningPacket
[[deltas]]
strikes = strikes_total

the weewx-sdr driver parses lightning sensor output into packets something like 
this:
