Thanks George, I think I have seen this problem with the HB barometer. I'm not sure why Eric ventured away from the old design. Maybe the new one is more accurate and more reliable. However, it appears to be harder to use and read, as you appear to need to be able to write code to read it. I did write some Java code a while back, based on Tim Bitsons Simpleweather, but I haven't the time to go down that route at the moment. Anyway, I have decided to run version owfs version 3.0 and also I'm going to use my EDS0066 barometer.
