Re: New WMR300
Interesting. I wonder if Davis are involved? Or are OS just copying? The wind sensors are upside-down

Re: New WMR300
Yes, turn the wind sensor and you have a Davis.
Also the price is about the same € 599,00

Re: New WMR300
Looks like a cooperation to me - in the video of the rain gauge (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_tNJ2LEjXM) it looks like they are using the same mouldings for the case and tip buckets as Davis, likewise for the TH 'pancakes'

Re: New WMR300
...And the diagrams in the manual show the 'same' TH sensor assembly as well.
Transmission intervals look familiar for the wind & temp:
Wind: 2.5~3 sec
TH: 10~12 sec
Rain: 20~24 sec

Re: New WMR300

Re: New WMR300
Davis Instruments would like to dispel the speculation that we are somehow associated with Oregon Scientific and the WMR300. Davis Instruments has no relationship with Oregon Scientific; the WMR300 is an attempt to copy our Vantage Pro2 weather station. Davis stands behind the quality and durability of our products and remains committed to designing and manufacturing high-quality, precision weather stations– all at a competitive price.

Re: New WMR300
Not so much of a copy as a clone!
I see Brian of WD has one for eval... http://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=19109.msg184487

Re: New WMR300
Interesting as I need that resolution to parse the bearing into the local wind names and subnames. See: http://www.wheelocknet.net/cumulus/wind.html?gb

Re: New WMR300
The OSI corporate site has a page for the WMR300 now, and the price for Europe is slightly more than the VP2 at €599, but you do get the data logger built in.

Re: New WMR300
Hi
Any chance that this will be added to the list of supported station in Cumulus in the future?

Re: New WMR300
The protocol would have to made available first, and I'd need a station. See http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#Will_y ... on_type.3F
