Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have another weather station which is not as fancy and it works fine. This (La Cross WS-1516 IT) one I just bought measures wind and rain as well. I have had SEVERAl problems with it. I had difficult getting it to measure rain...then wind and rain. Because I live in San Diego...months went by without rain so I did not know it was not working properly. The LaCross staff was VERY GOOD about helping and communicating via email and offering to take a return for service. The problem is that the unit is VERY, VERY, VERY (did I say VERY) sensitive to the AA and AAA batteries used in the unit. Care MUST be taken to the EXACT sequence of putting the batteries. One MUST find batteries that are AT LEAST good for 7-8 years of the date used (marked on the battery package). A specific time MUST be respected throughout the set up sequence i.e. "Wait 15 miniutes before proceeding....". They mean this. I must have done the set up sequence 20 times now. I must have gone through 10 sets/combinations of batteries. Now that I truly understand how important all this is...it seems to work great. LaCross should print in big letters:"LOOK YOU STUPID TWIT!! READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND DO EXACTLY WHAT IT SAYS...OR ELSE THE UNIT WILL NOT WORK!" The sort of tell you that batteries are important..but they do not stress just HOW important and WHY until they finally send you an email with VERY clear and good set up instructions. I respect the LaCross crew for being helpful and patient...but it is a hard and painful learning curve....
