Why this gift works
A 5-in-1 outdoor sensor that measures temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction and rainfall and sends it all to an indoor display. The display adds indoor temperature and humidity, highs and lows, and a forecast AcuRite says calibrates itself to his location over time. AcuRite quotes a wireless range of up to 330 feet, depending on the house.
It suits the man who checks the sky before anything else, empties the rain gauge after every storm, or still gardens, fishes or golfs by the weather. Instead of a phone app's regional guess, he gets the numbers from his own yard.
Who is this gift for?
Great for
- A retired farmer who still reads the sky every morning
- A man who logs the rain after every storm
Think twice if
- He has nowhere open and high to mount the sensor
- He is happy with the weather app on his phone
Worth knowing before you buy
- The sensor needs an open spot for accurate wind readings.
- AcuRite quotes up to 330 feet of wireless range, depending on the house.
- This version shows readings on its own display, not on a phone.
Why we like it
- Readings from his own yard, not the nearest airport
- Rain totals for the garden without a separate gauge
- The display lives inside, where he has his coffee
- Highs and lows to talk about at dinner
Questions people ask
Outdoor temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction and rainfall from the sensor, plus indoor temperature and humidity at the display.
