AcuRite Wireless Self-Emptying Rain Gauge with Indoor Digital Display (02446)

Rain collector unit stopped transmitting to base. Cleaned with water, and installed new batteries, but still will not record and transmit rainfall.

The unit works well but this is the 3rd gauge I had to purchase from you company. The exterior unit always fails to stop sending out a signal after a few years. I guess this is your plan obsolesce.

The molded plastic collection funnel that directs rain into the measuring device is flimsy and the tabs that secure it will break if subjected to any strain (such as the wind, that brings the rain, blowing on it). The idea may be sound but, the pennies you saved on plastic, doom this product to the trash bin.

I found it difficult to get the indoor unit to get readings from the outside gauge

I haven't had this item very long, so unable to comment for long time usage. As of now, it works great. Especially like not having to go out and empty the water out of it. Nothing to do with the item itself, but my fence leans a little, so trying to get the unit as close to level as possible, took a little bit to complete. If there was a base that can be raised if needed to help level it out a lot better, I would be interested it that also

It works great. Easy to read. It lets me know that it rained even when I did not know.

How disappointed I was after setting this up. I realised that when starting up, it is not possible to enter historical data for the past week, month or year to date. If the battery needs replacing, all data is lost. This is truly a very basic model .. would so easily have been made better by having a USB charging port and the ability to edit entries.

I purchased this product based on one of your remote thermometers I've used for years (and it's still working!).

I like that I can look back at yesterday's rain fall. Would like receiving unit to also show rain fall for two, three or more days ago. My old Oregon unit would, but theirs does not any more. Only the last 7 days. That is why I purchased yours.

I have had several acu-rite rain gauges, and have always been happy with them.
