On my first rain gauge of the same model has from the very beginning not to work on the recording month, then went to 4 Jaren the rain-sending function lost (temperature sends yet). Despite these shortcomings, I opted for the low price again for this device. Unfortunately, this did not work 2. Exemlar the month recording also. According to the manufacturer is an unrecoverable software error. If you can live with this limitation is the recommended device. Moreover one should take into account the missing function in the description of the rain gauge.
