Weather Station Radio Control YC9380

Great little weather station with plenty of features and a nice clear display. Easy enough to set up. Had this weather station for 8 months in which time it worked perfectly. Then suddenly it stopped transmitting the wind speed. Tried changing the batteries but no difference. Contacted Youshiko who advised to try resetting both units and sensor but still no luck. Sent it in to them and they sent me back a brand new unit with no hassle. New unit working perfectly for the last month.

I am very experienced with bad weather stations, ones that do not last very long.I have had this one for just an hour!It is up and runningEverything about it so far is GOODEasy to assembleEasy to erectEasy to set upEasy to calibrateEasy to readEasy to maintainWell sealedCompletely weather proofSturdyEasy on the eyeWhat could possibly go wrong?I will tell you in two months!

Worked really well for about 12 months and then the wind speed read-out failed. After several e-mails to Youshiko, I am still waiting for a response from them to get the unit fixed. This has been going on for over a month. Disappointed is my opinion.

Bought this equipment Oct'20, then shipped to me here in the Falkland Islands.Fitted in January 2021, all good.. Easy to use..3 or 4 weeks ago, temperature read 30 degrees C, when we had 5cms of snow (winter here).Reset, OK, then it happened on a number of occasions since.Yesterday, the wind speed gauge seized up..We have at the moment a good 30 knots of wind and the blessed thing will not revolve.I won't be purchasing another one of these in a hurry, very probably never again.

I am responsible for a 6m (20 foot) long gazebo that covers the patio of our block. The patio is surrounded by three walls of the building facing south. It is sheltered from the wind from most directions except due south. Gusts from that direction can seriously damage the gazebo. I bought this weather station to warn me when wind speeds are picking up. At some point we have to take the canopy off the gazebo quickly as strong gusts roar within the confines of the three walls and can shake it to pieces. This device has shown me that a 20mph (32kph) wind from the south is the one that produces the worst gusts. On windy days, this will show me when the wind is racking up to danger level. Invaluable device.

Bought in October 2020, now it’s September 2023, it is still working as stated. I ride a motorbike and it’s great for early morning outfit decision making with the temp and ‘feels like’ selection.It looks dirty, but a quick wipe over when the batteries are changed makes me feel useful. I can’t remember when I change the batteries as it is that long between changes.The weather prediction is the function that confuses people the most, it’s guessing the weather forecast for tomorrow(ish).One day I’ll get a better/bigger one with more functionality but I’m happy at the moment.

Everything still works after 3 years except the wind speed which is a great shame because this is the main reason I bought it! It still spins but transmit no speed measurement as others have reported.

I purchased this unit Sep 2022. After 14 months, outside temp suddenly read 30c (mid-winter, UK!!!), 99% humidity, zero wind speed.....I have taken the sensor apart, & the reed switch appears to have corroded as others have reported.I would expect several years use from this, so not impressed.
