Sensor-Suite Weather Stations
Bresser 12281
Why choose it
The 4CAST kit suits tracking sunlight as well as the usual weather readings, with UV and light-intensity measurements and a stated 150 m open-field wireless range.1
- Wireless range
- ≈492 ft (150 m) (Tested configuration: Current12281 kit, explicitly former7003200; sensor range is the maker’s open-field specification.)1
- UV measurement
- Yes (Tested configuration: Current12281 kit, explicitly former7003200; sensor range is the maker’s open-field specification.)1
- Solar radiation
- Yes (Tested configuration: Current12281 kit, explicitly former7003200; sensor range is the maker’s open-field specification.)1
