Acurite Iris weather station

I like being able to see the weather at our vacation home. The wind blows a bit near the ocean and I always want to know how much and where it's coming from. The rain and temperature is also recorded and measured.

Iris with lightning detection

I found it relatively easy to install the unit and set up the monitor, however I do not understand how the rain gauge part of it works. Does it empty or void the water itself every 24 hours? If so, at what time of day does it do this?

The Iris sensor features a self-emptying rain gauge. The tipping cup mechanism fills with water as it rains and empties once one side is full. One tip of the tipping cups records .01 inch of rain. If you have further questions, please feel free to reach out to our support team via live chat or email request.

The gift for the guy that has everything

Bought it as a Christmas gift for my son-in-law. This is a guy that is hard to buy for because he pretty much has everything. He was ecstatic when he opened it. It was something he had never considered but was anxious to try it out.

AcuRite Dependability

The outside unit is fine. The indoor monitor is difficult to read. For seniors, the text and numbers need to be larger and able to be read from an angle. We do like the lightning strike feature as it lets us know how far a storm may be.

Wind speed

Bought As Christmas gift. Can’t get wind speed to display. Have sent 2 emails to Company for help. No response. Plan on returning product As soon as weather permits the removal from roof.

Acurite Weather Station

Bought a few weeks ago, and not to happy. It resets itself & says wait a few DAYS for it to adjust! Stays on bright mode all the time too! Paid more, got full color, but it just seems like junk! It may be going back!

Impressive Weather System

Our old weather station, which served us faithfully for many years, is in comparison to this one a bit on the flimsy side. No offence to the old one but this new one seems built a bit sturdier. The display screen is much larger, easier to read, has more information on it and has its own stand. So far the readings have been accurite. We are off to a great start with no missgivings of our purchase. The set up was easy as it was positioned on the site of the previous system. The componets were all preasembled, it was just a matter of activating them. So far so good, praying now that it stays this way!

Display monitor is too small

Love the features but there is too much information for the small display. We can’t see the forecasts unless we are real close

Great product, poor lightning detector

Everything works fine except for the lightning detector, which constantly beeps for detecting lightning that isn’t anywhere around for hundreds of miles. So, took the batteries out of the lightning detector, and the rest works great.
