I wouldn't give up on your Acurite so quickly. In its price range, it's actually pretty good. First, make sure your fan is working. Check it during a weekend, or ask a neighbor/wife to check it. Second, make some sort of shade cover for it. Depending on the shape of the sensor, a white yogurt con

Well, that's disheartening. This station was a gift from my wife and I've tried every way I know of to make it accurate but there just doesn't seem to be a way. I have two consoles and neither of them agree on temperature, humidity or inside temperature. The weewx server seems to read the sensor

Hi, I appreciate you have come up with a solution to your question 3 but, depending on your requirements, an alternative may be to create a fairly basic report to create an ascii file to provide the data you want, then you could simply do $cat filename from the command prompt to display the fil

There's no *a priori* way to model the needed correction. You would have to install a thermometer that gives you the true in-the-shade, aspirated temperature, and leave it there for many months to build the model data you'd need for the correction. Then you could remove it. At the end of the day (

Not that I know of, although some people have added solar cells to make the fan in the 5-in-1 spin faster. Since I'm using SDR, I've decided to remap temperature and humidity to be read from a different sensor (the lightning one, in this case). I thought I had picked a good spot, but the tempe

I have an Acurite 01525A1 connected by USB to an OrangePI ONE running Armbian Ubuntu Xenial and weewx v3.6.2. When the weather is cloudy the temperature seems to be relatively accurate compared to my old weather station and other stations close to me. But on really sunny days when the sun comes

Yes, the station had no batteries. I was also hoping it would work without having to reboot te pi. I don't know if this makes any difference, but I have a WH-3080. This type suffers from the USB lockout but has one advantage: if you are quick in removing and puting back the USB cable, the memory i

How did you change locales? Did you use dpkg-reconfigure? *sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales* Select sv_SE.UTF-8. The configuration information for Swedish will then be generated. Then pick it as the default locale. When dpkg-reconfigure is all done, any old shells will still have the old locale, s
