Just as I was thinking of trying to add an additional temperature sensor to my 4 year old Fine Offet WH1080 based station (a Maplin N96GY) I find
1. The signal from the transmitter has been bouncing between 0 and 100% for no reason I can fathom (both console and transmitter have had new batters in the last few days) 2. Apparently identical replacement transmitters available on eBay may a) take months to arrive from China and b) not be compatible (some are, some aren't, apparently) (Maplin, who used to sell spare parts, has gone into administration and isn't selling anything). Seems it may be as well to think about a replacement station. My preliminary scan of possibilities (retaining my Raspberry Pi and local web server) suggests either the - Froggit WH1080 SE (adds UV) or - Froggit WS8700 (possible to add additional temp/hyg sensors easily, but no UV) [or Ventus W831 which seems essentially similar] Among other things a choice of 1 v several sets of batteries to replace, and it occurs to me that if I used the WH1080 SE it might be possible to recycle the existing console as a 2nd display -- if it's compatible.
