Reviewer: Mike,

I had an aging Oregon Scientific weather station that I purchased from Radio Shack probably 8 years ago for $250. The transmitters eventually stopped working and this unit cost less than replacing two broken transmitters on the Oregon Scientific unit. I like how there is only one transmitter that uses 2 AA batteries on the WS-1612. No more dirty solar panels and separate transmitters/sensors all around the outside of the house and no more aging ni-cad batteries to fool with or multiple transmitters for which you have to unscrew 8 screws each to replace the AA batteries! The new Lacrosse is just 2 AA batteries in a single transmitter with a simple sliding door to replace the batteries... which last longer than the old units that needed a solar panel. Setup was nice, much simpler than the old technology that I was replacing, and the unit is working perfectly.

In operation, the Lacrosse has much better transmission range than the old Oregon Scientific model! So far, all the readings seem to be accurate and I like the features. I've only had the unit up for a day so if it stands the test of time and lasts for years, it's certainly a good buy. At this point I obviously cannot comment on longevity. :-) My only complaint is that the Oregon Scientific model that I replaced had a touch screen so you could just touch the parameter you wanted (like outdoor temp) and then touch "Memory" to see the high/low readings. On this Lacrosse unit, it only has a few buttons on the bottom and the LCD isn't touch screen so it's a little more work/time to scroll through the parameters until you get to the one you want. Then you can look at history or high/low readings once you scroll to the proper parameter. So a little less convenient maybe, but that's no big deal especially at this price point. Plus the Lacrosse has some features that my Oregon Scientific didn't have like the 9 day history which will come in handy.

Great product!

I've had this installed for over 6 months now and it's still working great with no problems. It was easy to set up and gives an accurate reading. It's great to look at it in the bathroom as I'm getting dressed for the day and know exactly what to wear.

Great affordable weather station

I've had the weather station for almost 2 months now. I was very happy with the ease of set up. Once I found a suitable location for everything outside, I was using the station within 10 minutes. The data being reported appears to be consistently accurate with the exception of the wind speed. As indicated in other reviews, the wind speed appears to be under reported. Other than that however, I think this is a great weather station for the price.
