I want to put a weather station out on my lanai by the hot tub. The lanai is a covered extended patio. Most of the ones I see are really for indoors..does anyone know of one rated for outdoors? It won't be exposed to rain. Just humidity and extreme temperatures in ne fl. I've had tvs out thee fine so I may be over thinking it. Thanks.
If you're curious about the temperature and humidity by your hot tub, go for it. Get something cheap like this because (IMO) it won't be more accurate than this for weather, anyway:
There is no way a weather station within a covered lanai and near a hot tub will give you real weather conditions more than a few feet away.
I'm on my second Acurite weather station.
It comes with a 1" pipe mount.
I've attached a short 1" piece of pipe which I have clamped to my 1-1/2" vent pipe on the lower roof.
This is the newer version of what I have. Works great. Looks complicated but is not. Acurite weather station
I was looking at some cheap color ones off Amazon. I put a cheap digital alarm clock outside for the time and it couldn't handle being outside. I thought it would be nice to see the temperature, time and forecast while being out there.
Seen this guy who seem to throw out his TStat and instead configure a Sonoff TH10 to act a tstat. I don't quite follow the all important part, the nitty gritty of how he achieved that. Any one can expound, extrapolate...for us mere mortals? I don't know electronics but I can follow instructions to achieve same result.
