AcuRite Iris® Weather Station with Wireless Display for Temperature, Humidity, Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Historic Rainfall Totals, and Hyperlocal Forecast with Built-in Barometer (01122M)

I love this! It works very well and is quite affordable. I’ve been interested in a weather station for a a while now and while researching options, I kept coming back to this one. As a beginner to this sort of thing I found it was extremely easy to setup. The temperature, wind, speed and rain gauge were all accurate right out of the box and I do appreciate how you can calibrate the rain gauge if it’s not accurate. The display is easy to read however in the dark you can’t see the blue on the screen but after a while you really don’t need that. And connectivity is amazing as well. I have it across my house and the signal is still strong throughout having to go through multiple walls and across a large yard. Over all its designed really well and would highly recommend.

Nice little basic unit, with a few extra features. Seems well engineered, manufactured and reasonably accurate. I like the outdoor humidity data, wasn't expecting that. The only downside, if one could call it that, is the wind speed info. Due to the slow refresh rate, you'll only get an accurate reading in a prolonged, steady, wind. Otherwise, the indicated wind velocity is wildly inaccurate...and on the slow side. Forget about gust readings, the unit is too slow. To be fair, however, wind speed at this price point is a nice little "extra". This unit meets expectations, for me.

I guess you know your old when you get excited about a weather station. We like it and it paired right up to one another.

I'm very happy with it. It met all of my expectations. I did not go with a fancy display because that was an important to me. If you are going to look at this a lot and not want to have to pick it up, go with a nicer display. I mainly got it for wind speed. The rainfall and other features are nice. I recently bought a sailboat and want to get a feel for what 10 mph of wind feels like because I don't want to sail in much above that. I have found that wind forecasts aren't all that accurate. If you're wondering, it only updates the wind every 18 seconds. I did some tests and I'm pretty sure the update is the maximum wind over that 18 seconds. I wasn't sure if it was the instantaneous wind speed or average wind speed over that 18 seconds, but it does appear to be the maximum.

What a great product, it is what I gave my husband for his birthday & it has been a big hit! He loves it
