Awesome item
Keep track of lightning strikes as they get closer. This item works in conjunction with the weather station we purchased and we found it to be an excellent addition. The weather station also keeps track of the number of strikes with this device. Make sure you place it in a secure location where it won’t be dropped as you can break it if it falls.

Confusing initially, but you come to love it
When it alarms, you'll be looking around for what is making that noise. Then you realize it is giving you a heads up for rainy weather. You start to get a little to complacent if you aren't careful! It's a wonderful warning to have!

Not quite what I expected.
I expected this device to integrate with the base unit seamlessly and work without an issue, but that is not what I experienced. It has a ton of false positives and apparently needs to be positioned well away from the base unit. Or possibly my base unit is not compatible with the device. I have not seen any kind of decent results from this product.

Works well and is what I was looking for.
This connected to my AcuRite weather station easily, and now tells me how many recent lightening strikes I've had and how far away the last was.NOTE: do not use this anywhere near a microwave oven, it can sense the start and stop of the oven as lightening strikes.And, I had one of these sensors before that I hung from a tree limb and it stopped working after a couple of months. So this one, I bought one of the AcuRite solar shields, so we will see if this one lasts longer.Note about the solar shield: it is priced WAY too high, more than the cost of this sensor, BUT it occasionally goes on sale for $10 to $15 less.

Does the job
Bought this to replace one that was failing after 6 years in the weather. Easily paired to my AcuRite monitor and it sees the lightning we get here. I'm near Tampa Bay so 400 to 600 strikes can happen in a day. I put lithium batteries in it as they will last much longer.

Literally days of my life trying to get it to work!
Trying to get this with good reception and no false lightning strikes is taking over my life. And I keep deleting the real other weather records to get rid of these false records. I am going to have to take a hammer to it or I will never stop wasting my time with it. Once dead I rest.
