weewx has been used to collect data from range sensors, power monitors, 
depth sensors, and many other types of hardware.  no weather station 
required.

you probably want the weewx-sdr driver.  it talks to a usb software-defined 
radio (SDR) dongle.  the sdr dongle captures rf traffic from sensors that 
send data in many different frequencies.  the sensors for the ws-08 
broadcast at 433 MHz, and the rtl_433 software decodes them.

take a look at the weewx-sdr readme for details:
