Default Have you heard of the 'Meto Explorer' weather station/monitor?

I saw this in a shop today, but when I tried Googling for it, I only got
three hits - all in German, so I am none the wiser.

Does anyone here know anything about it?

Default Meteo Explorer question (was : Have you heard of...)

Thanks - that worked, but I wasn't able to determine whether it stores
for recall pressure *readings* for 6, 12, 24 hours, or just holds them
for graphing for that long, without you being able to recall them to the
display.

If you can't recall the readings individually, hour by hour, it is no
good to me.

Do you know of a weather station that *can* do that (preferably to
0.1mb) that won't require a lottery win to purchase it (say £150)?

LaCrosse WS-3600 does, and I guess the WS-2300 does too. I have a WS-3600,
and it is mostly fine. The software (Windows only ) is rather buggy
though (and I don't know if you can access the pressure history without
it), and the wind speed reading is suspect. I also think the thermometer
shielding, which looks fairly standard, isn't good enough.

I bought one of those in France last year. It packed up within 9
months, for the usual reasons most of these products pack up.


Which would be?

I sent it back to the address in the instruction manual; after a few
months it came back, duff as before, with a piece of paper enclosed
with some French handwritten notes from a repair shop of some sort. I
binned it.


I'd never buy any electrical/electronic equipment while overseas, simply
because of the above problem of repairs.
