Crikey great minds n all that.

I literally just bought one, no soil thermometer though.
£100 off Amazon.
Bresser 7 in 1.
WiFi, loaded up onto weather underground and can now see several others in the area which will help me with wind speeds at outlying blocks.

My nephew in neyland has a weather station in his back garden. It can tell you the rainfall from one the apps. Have a look for it

Was only 100quid Amazon.

Any spear thermometer will do ie cooking one

I bought a Bresser 7 in 1 Clearview last January, must say I have been very pleased with it. Cost me £220 at the time, they seem to be a fair bit cheaper than that now.
As for a cooking thermometer as a soil temp monitor, can't see them being much good when they likely start at around 50°C.

Is it the B&W unit?

Can't see a wifi model
on Amazon at the moment...

I bought a Davis Vue, can’t remember exact model, but it’s Wi-Fi enabled and I’ve linked it to Wunderground.

Can see the readings from wherever in the world you may be.

Not metric??

it’s a US based site I think. But you can configure the readings to what ever metric you prefer.

My default view is mm if rain and Celsius temps.

No
The one I got isn't on there now.

Thought most were capable of being put on to wunderground though.

Any thoughts Sencrop v cordulus?
cordulus is a higher annual fee but nothing up front, otherwise I can’t seee much difference.
my priority is accurate rainfall measurement. Wind etc not really needed.
