TheZonAddict: I should have bought this years ago. Much better than the ancient loggers.

Lucky D: Due to chip shortage this device took a while to get but it was worth the wait. The Weatherlink Live is easy to set up and only takes a few minutes. It enables one to broadcast weather data from a Davis Vantage Vue II weather station to the internet without the need for a dedicated computer. A little pricy but so is a computer.

H. Schwarz: I had purchased an incompatible sensor controller from Davis as I acquired separate upgrades for my legacy Vantage Pro. Called Davis Tech support (they are not very responsive to email), they exchanged the sensor controller immediately. YAY! This unit connected right away to the senor controller. What wasn't initially clear to me was, where was the inside temp/hum sensor? Well it is in the Weather Link live unit (it is no just a 'hub')... so make sure you place the Weather link in the right location, i.e. not a closet. The only issue I have is the 'basic' or free output from the unit offers only basic information, i.e. minimal little history logging. You have to sign up for a service for history and other features.

F. ConradF. Conrad: I purchased to have remote access to my Vantage Pro 2 (older 2008 version) weather station without having computer running 24/7 if using the older USB version. Setup was easy and received data from my older VP2 with no problems. The phone app and uses very little data and shows readings from all sensors. The free version works fine for me because the VP2 console already keeps a history. I keep the weatherLink hub in the basement to keep an eye on the temperature and humidity reading downstairs during heavy rains when not home to be sure the sump pump is working.

John: I have had a Davis Vantage Pro + for 15 years with a minor rebuild required about 10 years ago.
Because the device was old I decided to replace it and upgrade the data availability by adding the WeatherLink Live.
The instructions were clear and the set-up was easy. The outer case is not of a high quality plastic but the function of the device is superb.
I now have Bluetooth access to real time weather data on my phone and WiFi access to weather data updated every 15 minutes. This is on the web for anybody who is interested.
I decided to add the optional data package. This gives me 1 minute measurement intervals and superb charting function. I am experimenting with the charting but so far so good!

wtxnitz: I am very pleased with how easy this was to setup and connect to my equipment, a combination of old and new hardware. Since I already had a Weatherlink account, all I had to do was launch the iOS app, sign in and power on!
It's a breeze to add all my equipment. Much easier than the old data logger and weatherlink 2.
It only needs a WiFi connection to the internet. Yes, you have to buy a subscription to see your history. But the benefits are well worth it.
You can use a web browser or smartphone app. If you make your station public, others can see you realtime and you can generate links they can bookmark for access without an account.
Since I can access all my equipment with weatherlink live, I may shut down the datalogger that's still running on Mavericks. But I do like most of the old software look.
And tech support is fantastic if you call them. They showed my how to swap stations between basic and pro tiers without having to upgrade.
An excellent update. As others have said, this brings Davis fully into the present.

Robert C Warren: It’s about time the Davis Instruments people started bringing their equipment and software into the 21st century. They’ve always had top notch sensor suites but their consoles, hardware and software lagged many years behind. Still the same old gray and black console but I can finally get away from the overpriced data logger and always keeping it connected to a constantly on PC. But good Lord there’s no way the WeatherLink should ever cost as much as it does. I did snag one off Amazon at a reduced price and with some Amazon points I finally got it for about $135.00. It was simple to install and once online it’s runs flawlessly so far. For the electronics I’d give it a 5 stars for doing what it’s supposed to do but only a 2 stars for the price of the thing. I guess Davis is trying to recover it’s R&D costs.

Robin Stewart: I have an interest in the weather and if I am from home this enables me to check my weather wherever I am ont the net. Works exactly as described
The only thing I disliked this transaction was that the postage was very slow but it finally arrived in new condition
