I bought this about 6 months ago and it has become and indispensable display, rather more useful that the normal weather forecast! I mainly have it displaying rain. The display (optionally) cycles showing rain movements every 15 minutes so with this feature turned on you can watch areas moving across the country which helps understand the sort of weather approaching and also when it is likely to arrive.
The other displays are good (temperature, cloud cover, wind speed) but they only update every 3 hours which is less informative as things may have changed quite a bit since when the data was last refreshed.
I am very pleased indeed with this item and would offer the following suggestions to improve if further; 1) an option to auto cycle between two or more types of display (eg rain/temperature), 2) option for more frequent updates than 3 hourly for some display types 3) more than (I think) 6 recent snapshots, 4) a touch control on the panel to enable an immediate refresh without having to unplug and restore power to update quickly after changing the displayed item.
These are only suggestions and do not imply I am in anyway dis-satisfied with the product. Overall it is absolutely great and the best product I have purchased from TrainTrackr. The support when I had a couple of questions is also first rate. Thoroughly recommended.

I've got a background in Meteorology so this was a really fun 50th present having the rainfall radar there on the mantlepiece. And also practical...!

Had a few issues my end trying to set up my large weather tracker...found out it was a restart router scenario! With expert assistance and help from Richard at Traintrackr my new device is now fully up and running. Very happy customer and will definitely recommend to all my friends and family.
