Well got home from a week away and my sensors have been blown all over the place.
Recommend me one, external temperature min/max the essential one item. Anything else a bonus

I've ordered one of [url= http://www.netatmo.com/ ]these[/url] - might be overkill for what you are looking for though.

It'll replace one of [url= http://uk.oregonscientific.com/cat-Weather-sub-Classic-prod-Solar-Weather-Station-Advanced.html ]these[/url] for home use, which I have found to be very good ( it'll be getting put in my office ).

Is there anything like these, especially Cranberries first 'Neatmo' one, that instead of linking to iphones and the cloud, simply record data and send to a home computer? I'd like to record and track very local weater patterns like this automatically, but am not convinced in terms of data accessibility and long term security (i.e. if the company goes bust, they change to a new spec of machine or format or update the software etc) that using apps and the cloud is the best way to go...

This one has a USB connection to transfer recorded data from the indoor wireless unit to a PC.

So outdoor sensors send data wirelessly to the indoor unit which I believe stores that data until you connect it to a PC via USB and it then uploads the recorded data to the PC.

Allthepies, awesome, that looks like just what I'm after and not a bad price too. Have you got/used that model?
