Regardless of whether you call it a rain gauge, pluviometer or udometer, there are excellent options available. There are wired or wireless devices available to meet yourspecific needs. Rain gauges today are designed to both detect and measure rainfall amounts, along with other details that make them helpful in many scenarios.
Key Rain Gauge Facts
The wireless rain gauge has become a popular choice. With this, you will experience less fuss because, with this updated version of the traditional rain gauge, there are no wires to run . With a wireless rain gauge, important information is gathered and displayed. This means that you always receive accurate rainfall readings without having to go out into the weather.
If you are interested in buying a wireless rain gauge, there are two things in particular that need attention. First the device needs to be mounted within range of the wireless receiver. Second the device will run on batteries, and if there is not a solar charger included, you will need to replace the batteries periodically. One advantage of modern gauges is that along with the amount of rainfall, additional information is provided, including outdoor temperature, humidity, and more.
Currently, two gauges stand out as being among the best. The Comptus 2304 Rain Gauge is a cost-effective, tipping-bucket style.
