Confirms that besides Rachio been top list from most "techy sites", the RainMachine Owners feedback are most positive (it seems, specially for WeeWX enthusiasts).
It's interesting to note that although "everything" is moving to Cloud, RainMachine advertise of "cloudless" as an extra feature.At first, it seems innocuous marketing, but indeed an interesting feature for those (like WeeWX community), that look forward to more data control. In fact, the company transition of Cyber-Rain, Cloud dependency and lack of further development, it whats killing my original - and still hardware functioning - irrigation control. Mini- 8 EOL. Pro-8 was back-ordered, but now shipped (although pricey). Connectivity note: - Cyber-Rain: WeeWX, HomeAssistant - Pro-8: the only model I could identify (among RainMachine and Rachio) with both LAN wired and wireless capability Although I now have to consider a wire through garage walls the direct wired connection is of interest, since I suffered before with On/Off frequent procedure to Cyber-Rain WiFi bridge. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
