Ambient Weather WH31L - Lightning Detector for WS-2000 WS-5000 WS-1965

OVERVIEW: The WH 31L Lightning detector is an add-on sensor that connects to either an Ambient Weather WS-2000 or WS-5000 weather station. The sensor detects lightning strikes and transmits this information once every 79 seconds to the display console and our cloud service, AmbientWeather.net. The sensor has three settings to adjust the sensitivity for possible interference. Personal lightning detectors operate by detecting the electromagnetic pulse (EMP) emitted by a lightning strike. By measuring the strength of the detected EMP, the device can then estimate the distance from the detected strike. Through the application of electronics and software, personal lightning detectors such as the WH31L identify storm activity within a 25 mile range(40 km) of your location. The WH31L has a water resistance rating of IPX4 (resistant to water splashes from any direction).
