AcuRite Iris (5-in-1) Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Weather Station for Indoor and Outdoor Temperature and Humidity, Wind Speed and Direction, and Rainfall with Digital Display (01512M)

Product Information

AcuRite weather stations are some of the best on the market. They are accurate, easy to use, and you can find an AcuRite weather station for just about all of your needs.

It also comes at a relatively affordable price, unlike other weather stations with lightning detectors.

Conclusion

It’s also battery powered unlike other AcuRite weather stations, which are usually solar-powered. Pros On the downside, the display unit is not as great as other options on this list. While it looks nice, it doesn’t tilt. This limits your options for placement. Pros

The color LCD display is bright, simple, and easy to see from far away. You can place it on a table or mount it on a wall, making it versatile. It also shows weather forecasts as well as historical weather records. The access module allows you to access data from your controller via the sensor suite from up to 330ft. This is, of course, dependent on the materials your house is made of, and if there’s anything big standing in the way. The 7-in-1 sensor array also comes with all the instruments you might need. This includes an indoor/outdoor thermometer and hygrometer, a self-emptying rain collector, a UV sensor, and much more. These instruments are all super accurate. Things to consider are the type of display, connectivity, compatibility with accessories and apps, and price. The display is designed beautifully both on a hardware and a software level. It displays all your necessary information along with graphs and imagery to make it easier to understand and forecast.

Unfortunately, the accuracy of its other weather readings isn’t as great as other weather stations, and the update frequency is a little slow. Like the 01520, the 01540M has a 5-in-1 weather sensor that measures temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed, and more. First, plug the power cable into your weather station. Then, turn on the display. The device will automatically begin the configuration process.
