[2023 Newest Upgraded] Wittboy Pro Weather Station HP2564, with HP2560 TFT Display Console and WS90 Outdoor Solar Powered Weather Sensor, Supports WU/WeatherCloud/Wow/ Servers,915 MHz

I have an Ecowitt WS 90 sensor and HP2560_C Display. I have had the unit for about 4 months now and I am so please and excited with it. I was worried about it when I ordered, but with the help of the Ecowitt support team. I have calabrated it and it works amazingly. The manual for the displays seems to be a cut and paste of several manuals and sensors. It is not a complete guide to the HP2560_C display. Cons first: 1. Very disappointed with the display size of the HP2560c. There is too much information to display on such a small screen. It looked so much larger in the advertisement photos. If Ecowitt comes out with larger I will buy it. I can’t read much of the display data unless I hold the display in my hands. I know I have the information on my phone, but I like the display and like showing it off. 2. in my Manual the QR code is not correct for HP2560c Wifi set up. 3. The manual for the HP2560c must be used for more than the WS90 sensor and is confusing, because of different references to other sensors. BhmMan: I suggest you go to the Ecowitt website and download the whole manual and quick start. Use the support tech team. They usually respond in 1 or 2 days, and be patient. Pros: Just about everything else. Easy to install, with a little help from support easy to set up, and most of all being able to calibrate your readings. Note: I have emailed the Ecowitt support team all the below questions. They have been super helpful, and maybe this will help you. Q. I have a Wittboy with a Mdl HP2560_C display, I also have a GW2000 hub. Do I get any advantages installing the Hub? I had my HP2560_c already connected to the internet but can’t connect to the Wunderground. It is connected to the Witt weather app though. Ecowitt - If you have HP2560 console, then there is not much use to have the hub GW2000, as they are doing the same job with different display method. (I returned my Hub) Q What am I doing wrong that I can’t connect to the Wunderground? I have wunderground set up. I have put the numbers into the console. Is it supposed to go automatic from there or am I missing a step? I finally deleted everything except my account, started over, and it finally worked. Ecowitt - Please check your spelling for the ID and password input. The characters from WU can be misleading for 8:B, l:1. Etc. (This was my problem) Fill in your WU ID and Password, if it is connected to WU server, the WU icon will be lit on the main display. (Mine is at the top left.) Q. Is the 32 gigabyte micro SD card used just for Backup or just for software and hardware updates? What else is the SD card used for? Can I use the small USB plug in for updates? Can you give me instructions for how to use updates? Can I go directly from computer or cell phone to the Micro USB to update? Ecowitt - You can use any SD card with size no larger than 32GB & 32 fats. Down load the update file to your computer unzip the file, copy user bin file to SD card (max 32GB), insert into console and upgrade will start automatically. BhmMan: The SD card is for firmware updates, you can also leave the SD card in and history data will be saved on your SD card. I guess that would be my back up since there is no battery in the monitor. When I lose power, I only lose data while the unit is off, all the old data is saved on the SD card. Q. How can I use my app on my other devices like my lap top, iPad, my wife’s iPhone, and my neighbors mobile Phone. I know I can share for 30 days. But then I must reset each every 30 days. I’d like to know if I can share permanently. Ecowitt - We are extending the sharing time to 90 days. But it is not possible to share it permanently. You can refresh the share lease time to 90days by click on the “refresh” button and your friends can keep using the same link. What you need to do is refresh the link within the expiring date. Q Main. The Manual for the Ecowitt HP2560_C has a calibration Screen. I Note the Solar, UV, Wind, and Rain. These have a series of Numbers called Gain. I do not understand what each setting does to my overall display. Question 1. In this Calibrations Mode: in Rain Setup “Rain gain” has a “1” showing as a Factory preset, meaning - Sight glass rain gauge with an aperture of at least 4”. What do numbers 0.01 thru 5 Mean? Question 2. In Calibrations Mode: Rain Setup also has Piezo Rain1, Piezo Rain2, Piezo Rain3, Piezo Rain4, & Piezo Rain5. What do the numbers 0.01 thru 5 mean for each of these, and How do I Set these for my Ecowitt WS 90? Question 3. In Calibrations Mode: Wind Gain has a “1” showing as a Factory preset, meaning - Calibrated laboratory grade Wind meter. As in Question 1, What do numbers 0.10 thru 5 mean? Question 4. In Calibrations Mode: Solar Rad Gain has a “0.10” showing as a Factory preset, meaning - Solar radiation conversion from lux to w/m2 for wavelength correction - What do numbers 0.01 thru 5 mean? Question 5. In Calibrations Mode: UV Gain has a “1” showing as a Factory preset, meaning - Calibrated laboratory grade solar radiation sensor. What do numbers 0.05 thru 10 mean Ecowitt - Gain means factor that’s used to multiply with your original sensor data. So if you set gain larger than 1.0, it amplifies, if you have the gain set below 1.0, then it minimizes. BhmMan – this was especially helpful setting my rain gage. When I first set the unit out, my rain readings were way low. I set each rain setting to “2” and now it seems accurate with my Tube Style rain gage. So happy.

Great weather station with many weather info, additional sensors can be added. I have no issues with connection dropouts from sensors /wifi - all works fine. During sunny days, roof sensor is powered solely by solar panel, it uses AA batteries only after capacitor discharges during few days of darkness/clouds. (solar doesn't charge internal AA batteries but supercapacitor) To get accurate readings, some settings need to be done after 1st powerup (like altitude/pressure). Only small drawback i found so far is that lcd brightness in auto mode is controlled by exterior light hitting the outdoor sensor, there's no ambient light sensor on indoor lcd unit

Simple y completo. Interfase accesible y fácil de manejar Cumple muy bien su función.

Bought this 4 weeks and so far really like it. It provides accurate readings, has a nice and easy to read interface on both the console and the app and it's easy to link to Weather Underground and other websites. Installation is simple, it's an all in one unit that just needs to be attached to a pole, I placed mine on top of my TV antenna and it fits perfectly. The fact it has no moving parts, weather vanes or tipping buckets hopefully means it will be more durable then your more traditional weather stations. There is a solar panel integrated in the design to power it and you can also put a battery in it as backup but from my experience it fully charges daily from solar alone even on cloudy days where I'm located in Perth, Australia so this should be enough to power it unless you live in a place with long extended cloudy periods and/or somewhere with low light levels in winter and very cold weather as I've noticed it discharges more of the stored energy at night when the weather is cooler.

Ok, I have had this weather station for a couple of months now and I am ready to give it my honest review. I had an Accurite 5 in 1 weather station before this one and I like the Ecowitt better. With the app I can access my data easily and from anywhere. It is intuitive and easy to read. The unit is providing me with what I believe to be very accurate information on Temp, humidity,pressure and wind speed/direction. The rainfall gauge is reading higher than my additional standalone rainfall gauge. I have read in the manual that I can go into the setting and make corrections to adjust the offset but I have not done that yet. I do use the rainfall data to know when it rained and what rate. It is easy to see this information using the graphs. I also like the fact that this devise links up to Weather Underground and and is a part of a large network of personal weather stations. I got it linked up and when I am looking at the forecast on WUnderground I can also compare my weather data to other surrounding sites. I placed my WS90 sensor about 150 feet away from the HP2560 console and have no problem with connectivity and receive full bars of signal. I also like that the sensor has solar recharging so I won't have to change out batteries like I did with you Accurite 5 in 1 station. The HP2560 Console is a bit techy with all the function/setting buttons but the data display is easy to see and read and nice to look at. I find that the build quality is quite good on both the sensor and console. It was important to me when deciding on this personal weather station that the temp and humidity sensor is a replaceable module. My Accurite failed after a reasonable life of about 6 years. Being able to replace the sensor in this unit is a good feature. All in all, I give Ecowitt a thumbs up.
