## Description

desertcart.com : ECOWITT WS68 Wireless Anemometer Sensor, Solar Powered Wind Speed and Direction Sensor - Accessory Only, Can Not Be Used Alone : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: EXCELLENT WIND SPEED & DIRECTION SENSOR - I have owned an Ecowitt WH40 Wireless Rain Gauge for a few years now and it has been extremely accurate, transmits a great strong signal and has been completely problem free, and I have been very impressed with it. I like the idea of separate sensors instead of an all in one type unit, because you get better accuracy, since you can place each one in the best spot for each type of sensor. I decided to try the above Ecowitt rain gauge, their WH32 wireless outdoor temp/humidity sensor and this Ecowitt WH68 wireless wind speed and direction sensor, together with their WN1980 console to view all of the data. It is all working perfectly and transmitting very accurate data and I couldn't be happier. The WH68 wind sensor is excellent. I own and have owned many weather stations including two different Davis stations, and I have to say that this wind sensor outperforms them all! I find it to be as accurate as the Davis, but it is more sensitive to peak wind gusts, plus the wind vane has a little better dampening on it and gives more stabile readings, and the transmitting signal is strong and dependable. And I just want to add that the Ecowitt temp/humidity sensor is more accurate than anything that I have owned for both the temperature and the humidity. I have verified that with calibration equipment. If these sensors hold up as well as their rain gauge has, and I fully expect that they will, then they are an incredible value and give you weather data that you can depend on. Also to note, I had some questions for them before I purchased everything, and their customer service/tech help is great. I highly recommend this wind gauge and all of the other sensors and console that I mentioned above. They are very accurate and ruggedly built to last in my opinion, and the pricing makes it possible to own a flexible, accurate, high quality weather station at a great price!
Review: Working for 3 months, works well - Had a little trouble setting up the gateway, wasn't an intuitive setup, but it wasn't too difficult once I figured it out. The anemometer linked up to it with no trouble and is giving accurate results. Using WS View Plus to view the data. Update, 3 months have passed. I'm impressed, not only is it giving me the readings I expected, but it's now picking up outside temperature and humidity. Support thinks it's getting it from a nearby station. Stopped using the app for the readings, now just using the Ecowitt site for reports. Learned you don't need the app up to get readings. BTW, support is excellent.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Use on sailboat**
A: Don’t know, we retuned ours as it was full of problems and non-existent tech support. 

I would stay away from this company made in China. Ended up getting a great a unit from Davis Instruments, made in California.  (Purchased from Amazon) they have live telephone support and they could answer your question or recommend the best product for your boating needs.

**Q: Hello, does this system work without wifi connection? Does it store its data for upload later?**
A: Sorry, no.
It requires a GW1000 wifi gateway to work.
It will not store data.
Any other question, please contact us at support@ecowitt.com

**Q: Does the wind meter connect wirelessly to the gw1100 Gateway?**
A: Yes. We have the wind sensor set up outside about 50 yards away. No wall in the way only screen. Works well.

**Q: Does the app work with i-phones?**
A: Yes, through the Ecowitt app known as "WS View"

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy install, works well
*by N***F on August 23, 2019*

Good product provides readings of wind speed, gust, Solar (visible) and UV light measurement. Easy to install with good instructions. The installation kit could use some improvements. For instance 10 mm lock washers. FYI, there was no pole included. I used a 1-1/2 inch 10 foot EMT Conduit that I bought from Lowes for $21. Installation advises mounting at 32 feet which was meant mounting on roof. This was something I did not want to mess with in a DIY install. I am also transmitting about 200 feet, my home has aluminum siding. So far no issues and hoping this continues to work. I mounted a brace on the pole as I will add the rain gauge within a couple of weeks. I have several types of Ecowitt devices and like their products. The website is a good feature, App is so-so. Requires a few extra steps to navigate to the dashboard. I do hope this company continues to do well and develop its software and measurement devices.
