Davis Anemometer f/Vantage Pro2 & Vantage Pro®

A strong winter storm blew my weather station over when a guy wire failed. The anemometer would still give readings at higher speeds, but stopped giving readings at low wind speeds as if there was resistance on the shaft or bearings. I wasn't comfortable with the accuracy of my readings because of this, so I replaced the anemometer. The installation of the replacement was quick and easy, and it works perfectly. Davis builds great weather stations.

I didn't hook our anemometer/vane to any electronic device, because I don't care how many miles per hour it is blowing--a pocket anemometer can do that. From our dining room I can see which way the wind is blowing, and the spinning cups tell me if it is blowing "a lot" or "just a tiny bit". It is a beautifully constructed device that looks stunning on our deck, was very easy to assemble and a pleasure to peruse every time I walk past.

This is a replacement for my 25 year old Davis weather vantage station, you may pay more for a Davis station but in the long run your way money ahead ! Quality durable and reliable with normal mantance can't be beat .

This is our 4th replacement since every 4-5 years either the direction or speed fails. Unfortunately, between the coost of the anemometer and the labor to replace it, the cost has risen to the point where it may make sense to replace the whole system with a Tempest to eliminate the mechanical components.

I have one a Davis weather station for 6 years. The only reason I had to replace the anemometer was due to a direct lightning strike. Burned up the electrical parts in the old one and fried the ISS transmitter. Replacement anemometer is the same great quality. I like that Davis has designed this version of anemometer with a replaceable bearing cartridge. So instead of having to replace the entire anemometer if the bearing goes bad, you just switch the cartridge out and you are back in business for around 20 bucks. If you want great quality weather data, Davis is a sound choice.

Noticed this winter that our anemometer was struggling to provide wind speeds so I ordered a replacement once the weather improved. This is our third anemometer in 17 years of operation. First lasted 10 years. Second lasted 7 years. Upon inspection, I probably didn't need to order this one. The old one was kinda gummed up and I think I could have cleaned it with alcohol and got it working again. However, changing out is an ordeal as the pole is 20-something feet high so if I'm going through the hassle, I might as well replace it. I think Davis does a great job for the length of time I've owned the product. I've replaced the rain gauge and the solar cover as well.

The product was as advertised and the delivery time was good. Price was competitive

I bought this wireless Davis Weather Station Vantage Pro in 2004. It has worked reliably since then through hail storms and high winds. This year, the Wind Anemometer started reading zero so I ordered this replacement. I expect it to work for another 17 years. This weather station feeds data to my HomeSeer.com software which controls the automatic Internal and External window shades for optimum Passive House - home energy efficiency which keeps the hot and cold days under complete control inside.

Buen producto.

I have had a Davis anemometer with my Davis weather station for over 12 years but it finally died. The new one is made to the high standards of Davis products. It was easy to swap the old with the new.

Prodotto originale come da descrizione

Ideal fuer eine Eigenbau-Wetterstation z.B. auf Arduino-Basis. Gelb = 5V, Gruen = Analog (Windrichtung), Schwarz = Digital (Windrichtung, 1 Kontakt/s = 1 m/s), Rot = GND.

Good value, quick delivery with tracking, works well, replacement for old anemometer which has been repaired twice.
