My friend Jean-Michel in Kewarra beach/Cairns/Australia was the first one to have received this unit from Ecowitt in the entire world.
Thats a nice kit! That would be nice for storms like the one last weekend that rolled thru the Keys. My “weather station” on our live aboard sailboat consisted of monitoring the water level in the toilet bowl that was pouring in through the light fixture. Thought I had all the leaks fixed 🤣
Great review...been wondering about this unit.
😮 so beautiful
I'm told you may need to put something on top of this type of sensor to deter birds landing on it. Otherwise you could get false rain totals from their movement.
If this is like their other gateway you could get the data in other systems like GPRS via an http api.
Just got a Tempest. It’s awesome ❤
Hello and thanks a lot for your review. I am searching for devices with Beaufort scale option in the wind speed. Is Wittboy among these devices ? Thanks.
I ordered the Wittboy Pro based on this review. I liked the WeatherFlow Tempest, but not having a display console was a deal breaker.
I have tested sever Ecowitt and tempest and would not advise anyone or my worst enemy to buy that garbage Tempest crap.Save you money and buy the Ecowitt HP2553
Hi, thanks for your review!!
I'm looking for one answer that anyone give to me, in my farm internet is not so stable, but I need to work with real time data.
Is possible to store data locally and save them in any way like a txt file ??? For me is less important to have a 24h running pc then lost 2/3 days of data.
Thanks
Hello, thank you so much for this really complete review.
May I ask you if you considere the sensors accurate (or more accurate than the other arrays?), in particular the rainfall sensor?
Please, apologize me if you already spoken about this topi, but I could have lost something while viewing the video.
Thank you.
I am shortly going to make an update video about this unit comparing to my Tempest.. seem very close
My friend has tried both the TEMPEST and the WITTBOY and he wouldn't recommend the Wittboy at all.The wittboy report less that 50% of the rainfall compared to another Ecowitt WS69 outdoor sensor within 40 cms of each other.
Hello, thanks for your reply. Indeed, based on what I have read so far, the Wittboy looks like pretty inaccurate for rain readings yet.
I didn’t read about the Tempest because here in Europe it is not sold.
I will probably choose another Ecowitt model.
@@riccardor1060 The Wittboy would NOT recharge the batteries as this maggot is saying.The solar panel only recharge the supercapacitor inside the unit and NOT the batteries.
@@johnelliveps8002 with the ecowitt you can calibrate it yourself easily. Tempest you must do it through technical support....
Can this work with APRS and google assistant? Does Hub have the pressure sensor?
yes it does have barometric sensor.
They really need to make this with a lightning sensor like the Tempest.
Ecowitt have a lightning sensor
@@KieranShort Ecowitt have a lightning sensor separately.
1yr old video, do you still have the Tempest? How would you rate this one vs Tempest? I heard this rain sensors can be very Innacurate on rain ammount. Thanks
I still have the tempest and I need to contact them, I have a couple failures on the tempest.
How do you reset the wifi??
Does this have a barometer in it?
How does this compare to the Tempest you got?
I love my Tempest and the lightning detector, this thing tho is very close to accuracy of the tempest I see no real major differences other than the lightning detector of the tempest
@@HamRadioConcepts My friend has tested both the Tempest and the Wittboy and found the Wittboy rain accuracy is crap reporting about 50% less rain.
Skip to 0:49 for the start of the video
That’s not hot! It’s been 110 out here in Texas this week
APRS?
Not sure, I don't think so.. unless it comes through the internet to the digi
@@HamRadioConcepts In the app does it have the option to send data to api's? The other Ecowhitt gateway has that option. I send my data to a local devices via http.
Ecowitt is a chinese based company. They were, until recently, unable to sell their products in the united states due to contracts signed with AMBIENT WEATHER. Id rather buy from ambient weather an arizona based company that ive had zero issues with. Same manufactured products but american owned and may have been bought out since i last checked. Checkout ambient weather before ecowitt.
You better go back and get all the facts right about this unit and NOT talking bull.The WITTBOY or any other Ecowitt weather station does NOT,I repeat NOT recharge the AA batteries..
Very well said Professor.You better let Ecowitt know about this grub telling fibs and giving a bad name to the Ecowitt brands.
You are wrong... Sorry.... That's the end of the conversation.. that's why I had rechargable batteries in it.... NEXT?
Thanks for the feedback about my above response

Hi, can you integrate with Home Assistant with an https connection?
