Features
The AcuRite 01022M Pro Station brings a stunning new feature to the table: lengthening detector.
Yes, in addition to ACURITE’s five in one outdoor sensors, the 01022M Pro Station can detect lightning activity and not just count the number of strikes within a 25-mile radius but also estimate how far away from you they’re so you will know when it is time to turn off the PC and prepare for blackout when an extreme voltage attack from the heavens takes out the resident power station.
Aside from the great excitement of watching lightening move around your area (and the associated natural sound effects many second later), the AcuRite 01022M Pro Station provides the usual range of data form the standard five in one sensor: humidity, temperature, wind direction, rainfall and wind speed.
The colorful indoor screen, one of many from ACURITE that provide variations on the similar theme, shows you this info along with the date and time, the projected forecast backed on the info from the sensor, a streaming weather ticker that gives a measure of actual time weather excitement to your usual ritual of hypnotized, stating at the display and indoor thermometer/barometer, so you will know what the weather is both outdoor and indoor.
And it keeps data of weather, including the lightning strikes.
Pros
- Lightning detector
- Color weather station extents lightning within twenty-five miles
- Lightning strike counter shows running total
- Sensors feature very durably
- Weather ticker streams real-time data
Cons
- It works fine, but the price matches the quality — it’s very expensive.
Final words AcuRite 01022M Pro Station
This sensor for weather and included lightning strike sensor is an enormous idea if you live somewhere prone.
