Wittboy Elektronische 7-in-1-Wetterstation

Other than some initial difficulty connecting to wifi, setup was successful and the device is working flawlessly delivering a broad stream of data. Connected easily to weathercloud and weather underground... A quick and easy way to begin weather tracking.

I started to do a review yesterday but didn’t finish. Initially I had problems with the Wittboy. My old Ambient Weather Station was interfering with the Wittboy as they both operate on 915 MHz. Their tech support pointed me in the correct direction. After shutting down the Ambient Weather my Wittboy is now operation as it should. I have to thank Wittboy for all of their great support.

Perfetto

Excellent bargain if simple weather data are required (as for us, we use it as add-on for remote locations). It was easy to add the data to our server software, but (compared to (much more expensive) competitors, like Gill or Vaisala, the wind sensor needs some rework, there is a (too) large variation in the wind to use it seriously. It would be nice to have Bluetooth (BLE) for local communication with the gateway and not WiFi (as the used ESP32-chip of the gateway has BLE built in). Also it would be very nice to be able to receive the 868/915 MHz signal directly, because the gateway needs too much power for battery operation.
@ecowitt: if you need assistance for BLE or Radio-R&D, just drop a note. We here have a lot of experience with wireless (e.g. CC1001 - CC1310, Nordic-BLE, ...)

Haven’t installed the weather station yet, so can’t comment on that. Great price and shipping packaging was fine. Only improvement would be the shipping tracker. Tracker didn’t update for 7 days from when it reached California and all of a sudden it was delivered.
