Default DAVIS OR PEET BROTHERS ?

Greetings to all,

I am considering purchase of a Dvis Vantage Pro or a Peet Brothers Ultimeter
2100 system for a site in central Vermont (USA). I will want to log the
data on a PC and possibly sdet up a website.. Davis clearly has a more
aggressive marketing program.

Any observations good or bad on either system would be appreciated.

Thanks,

JDG

I have used a cabled Davis Vantage pro now for quite some time and am
very pleased with it .For software ( especially when you want to use
the station for creating a weather-website ) you might want to look at
alternatives to the Weather-link program - which is an ok program by
itself - that comes with the DVP :
- Virtual Weather Station or
- Weatherdisplay ( the one I'm using )

these two programs are the frontrunners when it comes to software for
the Davis Vantage Pro ( together with the aforementioned Weatherlink
)

I have the Peet 2000 as well as the data buffer to enable it to store data
when the PC is off-line and then download it to the PC when I want. I'm
using older software and it's buggy. Perhaps the newer versions are better.
It is nice to not have to have my PC turned on to gather up data. I'm not
sure if the Vantage Pro has this feature.

The hardware of the Peet system has been reliable (anemometer, etc.)
