Customer Reviews for AcuRite - Weather Station - White

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my second Accu rite weather station, but I wanted the lightning detector so I went ahead and bought it mounted it on the other side of my house and both units seem to agree quite nicely and the lightning detector function is perfect. It will pick up lightning up to 20 miles away hasn't failed me yet if I hear thunder I get a warning that there was lightning in the area and many times. The only reason I know there is lightning is because the dog is under the bed and then I look at the detector and sure enough there are strikes recorded companies.

The connectivity of it works great. The color scheme of the background is bad and the black numbers don't overcome the colors or even the brightness adjustment. The stand for the display should have an adjustment of be at a different angle. You will not see the data from over 8' away unless you put a shim behind the stand to tilt it a little more forward.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review; we appreciate your feedback! LCD screens typically have somewhat limited viewing angles. The viewing angle for our displays is optimized for typical display setups, such as on a side table, where it is meant to be seen at eye-level or from slightly above the display. For the best results, please make sure that you are using standard alkaline batteries from a high-quality brand. If we may further assist, please reach out to our support team via live chat or email request.

Good value for the money. Works as described. Had a previous model for many years and it finally conked out. I like the newer version as it is more horizontal as opposed to vertical for sizing. It fits better under our cabinets. We purchased the basic model and love it

I bought this model because I wanted the lightning detection. It's winter and we have not had a thunderstorm yet. I'm curious to see how well the lightning detection will work. Everything seems to be working great so far. I'm happy with my purchase.

Nice unit with lightning detection. I wanted that because I am a Ham Radio operator with multiple outdoor antennas. My only gripe is the limited angle required to read the display. If you're not directly in front and a few degrees above, the display washes out.

1. Lightening sensor not working, even when yards from any elecric or electronic device. 2. Temperature reading does not seem accurate. 3. Dimming does not seem to be working.
