Davis Weather Instruments 6152C Cabled Vantage Pro2 with Standard Radiation Shield

Vp2Cp

We've been looking into smaller companies that provide high quality weather stations for your home or business. We like the fact the sensor on the Davis 6152C weather station has an integrated rain, humidity, and anemometer. The sensor is also housed in a standard radiation shield which gives for better temperature readings. This system is also cabled instead of being wireless, which should give it better all-weather performance.
