Anybody using Davies Vantage Vue or Vantage pro? I would be interested in comments on these machines.
Had a vantage vue for 10mths, have found it very good, got after reading a lot of revues the only problem is it is expensive compared to some other makes but hopefully the quality is there, works wireless so makes it very flexible to move around, would like to link it to a laptop but yet again very expensive for the kit to do this! so have forgone that luxury.

Bought a Vantage Vue this year and it was expensive, but compared to my Technoline vastly more reliable and accurate, he said (fingers crossed!). Haven't done much with processing the results yet as I want to get a few months under my belt. If you go for the datalogger as an option be sure to get the latest version as there is a lot of old stock around which will not work with the latest console - took me a month to get the proper version.

I once started to search weather stations on the net with a view to buying one, and came across this, http://www.hosiene.co.uk/weather/index.htm which someone who is only about 2 miles away as the crow flies, puts all the data I need on the web for me to look at anytime! Very kind of them!!
It's a pleasure :) I put the data on the web as I know it will be useful for interested people, and it's pointless keeping it to myself!
Although I may have been 2 miles away from you in 2013 (Bayston Hill), I am now based in Pontesbury, and the data on the site is for Pontesbury and not Bayston Hill!!
