I'm in Watford, just north of North London. We often have our own micro-climate here due to the geographical setting. Can send you my data if that's any good to you. You can reply to me as PM if you wish, or my email address should display. I use a La Crosse WS 3600 with the HeavyWeather software Regds Jonathan

Hi, I have had a WS3-600 for 2 years, its the same as the 3650 except you have the cup type anemometer and slightly larger rain gauge. I have had no problems except last year i fitted the cup type anemometer, so, I guess mine is a 3650. The HeavyWeather software is fine for routine use. As I want to add sensors, I will chnage to Ambient Weather or similar and use 1-Wire format for added sensors. As for LaCrosse, they are good, appalling support, 'years' to answer a query. Regards Jonathan

Can anyone help. Had my La Crosse WS 3600 since last Dec, generally happy with it, but 2 months ago readings from the wind anemometer failed suddenly after working ok. It is the turbine type. I can see the rotor turning ok, but, as it's up on top of the chimney (chimney is on side of house so I am not affected by false high wind speed over the roof ridge), and when I put it there was before I had a spinal operation, its not easy to get up there to check it. I was wondering if anyone knew what voltages I should expect from the wire feeding back from the turbine, if its working ok, to the Thermo-Hygro Sensor which is mounted at ground level out of the sun. This way I could tell if the problem was up on the roof, or if it was in the Thermo-Hygro Sensor I do not use battery power, the mains transformer feeds power up to the anemometer and to the Thermo-Hygro Sensor. All of the other parts function correctly and feed data ack to the HeavyWeather software I use. I have asked La Crosse tech support for help, but, although they responded ok on another earlier issue, they have ignored this enquiry. Hoping for help, Jonathan
