AcuRite Iris (5-in-1) Wireless Indoor/Outdoor Weather Station with Remote Monitoring Alerts for Weather Conditions (01536M)

After connecting to WiFi, all the information is immediately available. Very quick connection and hourly to weekly records and updates are available all the time. Pretty cool to be sitting somewhere and look at the weather where the station is located. Also quite helpful on the farm

We have an older generation weather station that we love. Gave this one to our daughter for her new home and she loves it! She said it was fairly easy to install.

Weather station works exactly as advertised. Interface to network requires computer, or... Acurite 09150 smarthub. (or other Bluetooth network interface) I purchased Acurite 09150 smarthub because it is advertised and designed to interface. Great System.I mounted my weather station on a mast about 14 foot tall extending about 4 feet above a tool shed roof using 3/4" galvanized pipe concreted into the ground and attached to the eave of the building at a remote location with internet access The desktop display is wirelessly connected and easy to read inside the building with all the information clear to see.. This is fine when I am near my weather station. I most often monitor this weather station at a remote location approximately 90 miles away through the network interface. Instant weather conditions available through my smartphone or computer with 3 minute interval reports. I see conditions such as wind speed, wind direction, barometric pressure, precipitation, dew point, temperature by phone or computer. I see graphing trends in the same manner for Today, 24 hour, 31 day, Year, All Time recorded, or Custom. To see conditions through my phone and computer, I purchased the AcuRite 09150 smarthub and interfaced it directly to my router using standard network CAT5 cabling. This weather station when purchased with smarthub is a great tool for monitoring current or trending conditions at home or remotely.I am very pleased. No knowledge of other systems, I would recommend this system because it works perfectly for my needs.Lower cost equipment might be available, it may work as well, but this is a quality weather station that works.

The media could not be loaded. Choose Acurite mostly because is an old company with a lot of historical data bur there are others much modern but with not historic data.This system app and software needs some updates to satisfy the actual needs..The equipment is pretty good and last a long time.

This is a must for a weather enthusiast. Quality product and accurate

Somewhat difficult app set up. From what I can tell you have to have the device plugged into your PC via micro USB(outdated) 24/7 if you want it to report to the cloud and be able to connect on your phone. LAME! The display should be smart enough to do this but it isn't. Cheap quality across the board. All plastic everything. With that said, the data looks really good and I won't be returning this. I got it on sale and I suggest you do the same. I'm stoked to have an accurate weather station at the house. This would get 4 stars but if you PC turns off you lose the connection and can no longer use your phone. What's up with that???

Mounting wasn't all that bad, either. I already had a dis-used satellite dish mounted on the roof with a pole sticking up vertically, so I took the dish off and got a 4' long 3/4" diameter extension pole that fit in the sender unit and the old dish pole. Now I can stand on the roof and still look down in the rain dish to clean it... purists would want it even higher to measure the wind accurately, but in my yard full of trees accurate wind measurements aren't happening without at least 80' of elevation and that's not happening.So far, connection between the inside and outside units has seemed pretty solid, even with a metal roof and about 50' of distance between them. The inside unit is nice, but a little hard to read from the side where I have it mounted. I have it close to a PC where it sends data to the AcuView cloud app and Weather Underground - which was relatively painless to set up. Most of the time I look at my station on my cellphone, or sometimes relative to nearby stations on WunderMap.It's pretty amazing how much variation there is across a neighborhood, particularly as you get closer or farther from a nearby river. At first I thought there was an inaccuracy in the temp measurement, or maybe it was "roof effect" but, the temperatures track very close (+/- 1 F) with a digital thermometer I have mounted on a pole on the other side of the house, and there are usually a couple of other nearby stations reading like mine on the Wundermap, but not always the same ones.
