Weather Spares
20% off this item when purchased with selected sensors and weather stations.
This practical shelter from TFA protects temperature or humidity sensors from the rain and reduces the effects of solar heating. Due to the open construction of the protective cover, the air can circulate freely inside and you get improved readings even in direct sunlight.
In addition, the sensor is protected against rain and can be easily placed anywhere outside often extending the life of the sensor inside. Suitable for a variety of sensors including TFA, Ecowitt, GARNI, Davis, Oregon Scientific and Netamo.
The protective casing is also ideal for transmitters with a cabled sensor, as a cable opening is also part of the design.
We also recommend that when mounting the sensor inside that it is slightly raised above the base to allow air to circulate underneath as many sensors have base ventilation holes.
This is a good product - well made and sensor fits well inside. The only thing that customers need to be aware of is that that the shelter must not have any sunlight falling on it at all - else the temperature goes up a lot. This is despite the sensor being free of sunlight - but sun falling on the shelter is enough to make the temperature go up for the sensor leading to inaccurate readings
The shelter arrived very promptly from Weather Spares and was well packed.
The quality of the product is very good.
The reason I bought this is because my outdoor temperature sensor did not last very long due to bad weather conditions.
I have put my sensor inside and everything is running perfectly. I feel quite confident it will protect the sensor from rain etc and should make it last a lot longer.
This works perfectly for sensors such as the Ecowitt WN31 8 channel sensor if you’re after an additional outside sensor to the main array (Ecowitt only make a waterproof 2 channel sensor currently). Not only will it ensure that it protects the sensor, which is ostensibly an indoor sensor from damp, but it also allows for protection from direct sun light but also free movement of air for to allow for accurate humidity and temperature readings. I have this in place with over 400mm of rain over the last few months with absolutely no issue nor failed data transmission to the console, so it definitely works.
The design of the unit is such that you can free stand it, wall mount or even stap to a pole or gutter giving you many positioning options whilst still allowing easy access to the sensor for maintenance/battery replacement. It’s also a cheaper option to Ecowitt’ s own sensor cover (more typically used for the protection of the excellent lightning detector) which really can only be pole mounted.
Purchased to house the Remote Sensor for a new Youshiko weather station.
I had to modify the sensor slightly so that I could secure it inside the Sensor Shelter with the (supplied) velcro fastening, but without any great difficulty. Shelter, plus sensor, now mounted on the balcony and working perfectly.
Does EXACTLY what I wanted!
I picked this up discounted with an Ecowitt sensor. Great little shelter and had the fixings included too making setup easy. Simple screw and click base to put the sensor in. Managed to fit the WH31 and lightning sensor in the same shelter.
