See my post above in this thread. No issues so far. Regards

Hi Claudio, which benefits do you foresee for having that buck converter instead of the IC 7805? Thanks for sharing Miguel

Hi Robert, that's smart, that would effectively work in regards to dew and false positives of rain drops. The thing that concerns me the most is that the rain sensor suggested in your project suffers from electrolysis, getting useless after some time. This is directly related to the DC nature of the circuit. One would need to alternate the positive every other time to prevent such event. I'm currently testing the sensor in the link, looks promising but I'm waiting for the rain season to start shortly....

Robert, amazing update, thanks for the effort!! I have a few questions: Is the webpage reporting the wind direction with the offset accounted for? See the image attached, on my side it seems that the offset isn't taken into consideration. I did check and correct wind direction is reported to WU. For some reason, if I want to change the TCP/IP port, changes don't take effect and return back to standard configuration (2020) Same applies for WU upload interval, here despite the interval is set to 2,...

Robert, which windows log do you refer to?

Hi Robert, since you're about to release another windows app version, attached a screenshot with a potential error of wind speed report from the app. App reports wind speed 0, CSII file apparentely reports the same (wind calm) and observing conditions report 1m/s wind speed. Early today I saw observing conditions reporting 6m/s but the windows app was still reporting wind speed 0, thus CS II file reporting wind calm. Regards Miguel EDIT: Ok, I was messing up my settings on Mysqmplus app in regards...

Although I didn't use that case, one trick that could save your sensor is to apply silicone around the edges. Mine is exposed to the elements like that and I had no issues so far with one being damaged by water. Cheers Miguel
