I think Gina was saying the same as me.
Yes, if it did produce an average direction, it would have to use vectors; that's what Cumulus does to produce the average direction.

Sorry, no banner - weather station out of action. Hoping to be up and running with a new home-made one soon.

Re: Wind Speed
I should have ask the guy where the original three minutes came from in the first place.
I assume the reason the updates are not live is because of battery life. Would that be right?

Re: Wind Speed
I think so. The Davis sensor transmits every 3 seconds, but it has a supercapacitor (for power at night) and a solar panel, which charges the supercapacitor up during the day and powers the transmitter. Fine Offset have introduced a solar panel for their latest sensors, but I think it's unlikely they'll be able to increase their transmission frequency, in the current range anyway.wd40 wrote:I assume the reason the updates are not live is because of battery life.
