    Interesting product but with too many flaws

    Nice design easy to install, the dongle is at first disturbing but it is understandable as a WIFI module would require a bigger battery and solar panel so the product would be more expensive.
    The product is working OK but     you realize soon enough that the 400mah battery and the small solar panel should not be enough to power the Storm during our winter time (Sorry I do not live in California...). Another disappointment is the app, either the web interface or the Android app should be improved.
    Not only the app but the hardware could be improved, for example, the reading of your battery capacity in the app seem to be just a guess... no voltage sensor?

    Furthermore, my unit came with a dead battery, that should have been easily avoided during quality control.

    I m sure I will love my Storm, once back from RMA (since 3 weeks...), but for the price, I was waiting for more, but that is perhaps a bit too much to ask as plenty of other products are more expensive and delivers a far more bitter experience.

    edit 07.05.19 I just change my rating to 1 star, I have been waiting for my Storm to come back from RMA, but after dozen of phone calls, 6 months after I still have nothing. Galaxus offer me a refund but there is no use to refund me the Storm when I have already a Sky2     

    Pro

    • Nice design
    • Easy to install (for a weather station)
    • Could be link to Weather Underground
    • a good forum, where you find help and answer

    Contra

    • Web or mobile application is poor in design and functionality and workflow
    • solar panel big enough for our "Swiss" weather?
    • Poor quality control
  • LeLutronic

    Not Bad

    It's a pity that the Storm needs an extra dongle, and does not connect to the WLan like the Sky 2.
    The Storm is supplied without CHE plug adapter (only US) - Was at least with me here so the case ... Fortunately, the SKY     2 which I ordered at Brack had a CHE adapter with it. 

    Pro

    • Easy to use

    Contra

    • Extra dongle for network
    • No CHE adapter supplied
