The weatherman
La Crosse Technology WS-9611U Wireless Sun/Moon Weather Station with 15 Advanced Forecast IconsOnce I understood the manual, it works wonderfully. The little weatherman changing outfits is totally innovative.
Great little weather station.
For the price, this is a great little weather station. Check the dimensions, it is fairly small, but just big enough to sit on our kitchen counter to be checked several times a day. I like the little man, his predictions of rain are pretty accurate, although he often bundles up a bit sooner than I do. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase.
Don't buy the TX6U with the WS-9611U-IT
The weather station gets four out of five stars, but I give Amazon a big zero for the "frequently purchased with" feature of their site. It recommends buying the TX6U wireless temperature sensor with this unit, but it is not compatible. The TX6U is a 433 Mhz sensor but the weather station uses a 915 Mhz sensor (the TX29U-IT). Don't buy the TX6U with this model weather station.
I subtract one star for the weather station because the two little green LEDs on the right side barely illuminate the screen when the back light is activated. Other than that, the unit works OK.
Horribly Inaccurate
I bought this because it seemed like a cool idea. However I noticed that the temp readings are depressingly inaccurate, ESPECIALLY the outdoor temp. I have access to very expensive equipment at work that reads temperatures and this was off by about 4-5 degrees for the indoor temp and about 10-12 degrees for outdoor temp. Man I would be embarassed to release a product that performed so poorly at the job it was supposed to do. It's cool in concept and wouldn't be a bad idea if you don't care about the useless temp readings.
On the Go Weather Station
La Crosse Technology WS-9611U Wireless Sun/Moon Weather Station with 15 Advanced Forecast Icons
This is a great mobile unit with its out side sensor, great for RVing, camping & boating, has acceptable range of transmission. So whats not to like. Easy to set up clear instructions. Four out of Five stars not perfect but what is!!!
