Weather Monitor 2

Post by ian e »

I have been given a Davis "Weather Monitor 2" station from a friend who saved it from the skip at work.

It's known probelm is the Humidity and Temperature gauges are not working at present, but I can fix this with either new sensors or maybe a new lead issue. Hoping rather that the connectors have corroded.

The main question I have is the power supply to it. The Base station part of it has had its lead cut, so I have the lead going into the display but not the transformer that plugs in the wall, does anyone here know the voltage and load the unit takes so I can buy a replacement ?

Thanks in advance and I'm sure more questions to come.

If you look on the web, you can find documentation. Here for example:

http://www.davisnet.com/product_documen ... manual.pdf

According to this manual, 9 volts, and will run on up to 12 volts.
