La Crosse Technology 724-1415BL Wireless Rain Station with Temperature and Humidity

Very nice rain gauge. Great information displayed and easy set up. My only complaint is I can’t get the auto backlight feature to work properly. It will turn on correctly but never turns off. Still I’m very happy with the purchase.

I'd give it a 6 if I could. There was an issue with the unit. I contacted customer support and they responded super quick. In ENGLISH, very knowledgable! Couldn't resolve the issue so they agreed to send me a replacement. I then found the issue and resolved it. Luckily I got back to them before the replacement unit shipped. Product was easy to set up. It is easy to read. Linking the temperature sensor and rain gauge was very easy. Don't go cheap. Much better than the lesser alternatives.

In my previous review I stated I liked it a lot.. But now only about a year old and it will not gauge rain at all, so I will buy a cheaper one next time. .I like that this is accurate and the rain gauge is sturdy. It is a little bit harder to glance at and get the gist, on the indoor screen. Perhaps because of others I have had in the past. Also it does not have indoor temp which is not a deal breaker but I do like to have that.

Purchased this product in January of 2022. Have encountered nothing but problems with the rain gauge part since installation. Has been on down time more than working time. Have checked to see if it needs cleaning, replaced all batteries, and moved to different locations. Finally it has gotten to the point it never works, no matter what we do to attempt to fix it. Temperature, humidity, time and "flower pot" working fine. However, the rain gauge part is a big "no". Since still under warranty (1 year) with manufacturer have been trying to call the warranty department, but you can never get anyone to answer...leave a message is it. Claims they will return your call in the order received. Well...they must be backed up with hundreds of calls because you will not get a call back. Have tried other phone numbers for the company but receive "leave a message" or if a human answers they claim they cannot help you because it is not their department. At this point, have decided to just junk this item and purchase another brand. Cannot and will not recommend La Crosse to anyone. Worthless product and horrible customer service! +++

I don’t post a lot of reviews, but I am getting ready to replace this with the same one. We have had this one since 2019. I feel like we really got our monies worth with this. It is easy to set up and reset if you need to.

Seems to be functioning properly with very easy set-up.

Rain gauge stopped working after 6 months. I liked it otherwise Update I emailed company and they sent new sending unit.

I'm having a real problem with insects and spiders causing interference with the rain gauge mechanism's ability to cycle and provide a reading. Where I lived 6 months ago I had a rain gauge made by another company that used a wheel mechanism to measure the rainfall. I sure didn't lack for spiders and bugs at that location but never had an issue with the wheel being disabled by them. The see-saw mechanism with this La Crosse unit seems to be very sensitive to their activities. I check the gauge every day to keep it functioning properly. The see-saw seems susceptible to wind as well causing a reading when there has been no rain for days. I have no real evidence of the wind effect but it is the only reason I can figure to account for the errant readings. Otherwise, the temperature/humidity function works very well and the signal strength of both sensors at the base station is very good.

I've had three of these over several years over which time they've made slight improvements that have corrected structural issues I've encountered in this time. Generally, an excellent and reliable rain gauge which is reasonably accurate, given the price. I'm in Queensland, Australia where the rain can vary from prolonged drought to a maximum of 400 mm in 30 hours - all of which the gauge coped with accurately. I estimate the accuracy using the accumulation in a wheelbarrow! I have never had any problems with the wifi connection other than battery failure.

Had it for about a month now. Runs very well. Data is transmitted to receiver (in my case) about 22 feet through glass and walls with out any interruption. I like the background light powered by the usb cord. I hope I can get it through a pacific northwest winter in tons of rain and some snow. Must remember to bring it in when it is freezing. So far its great.

Wi Fi drops out continually. Have great WiFi mesh system with multiple devices all working other than this weather station. In process of requesting replacement.

I've like how accurate it is vs other electronic rain gauges.

Had problems with the sensor a day after getting this. Emailed the company and they said they would send a new sensor out. Haven't received it yet but in the meantime, I took all batteries out and let it sit overnight. It's working now. It's a pretty good indicator of temp and rain.
