WH57 Wireless Lightning Detection Sensor

Sensor detects lightning bolts and storms within 25 miles (40 kilometers), the data can be viewed every 79 seconds on the WS View App after the WiFi configuration. You can monitor number of strikes daily, the time and distance of the last strike detected.

Thanks you and even more for making the effort to do the video in English.

I got my two temp sensors and the range is nice long and it's so accurate

[@slargonflargon8746]

Very helpful! Thank you.

Can I place that sensor in a garden shed

[@Markkonto]

Yes, you can but bear in mind that the sensor itself is not waterproof. If rain reaches the shed, it is better to place it in some kind of shield.

[@nicholadstoap6944]

The shed is weatherproof I am in Ireland I want to monitor how lighting happens around the areas that the weather app misses

[@philliptaylor502]

I just cannot get mine to function satisfactorily, whichever setting i use, on one setting i was getting several ‘rogue readings’, so i reduced the sensitivity then got no reading whatsoever even though there actually WAS lightning-exasperated.

I have a detector inside in a first floor room all the time and it detects lightning strikes (look at data from May 22 - www.ecowitt.net/home/share?authorize=FMD3SJ).
However, this is a detached house. My friend also has a problem with the detector, which does not see lightnings despite the fact that it hangs on a pole placed on the roof, but he lives in a single-family block of flats in the city. Perhaps the surroundings are important and some barriers interfere with the reception.
Perhaps it is worth asking for a replacement copy under the warranty.

To many false positives. Same with the Ambient Weather model which is almost identical.

I put the detector on the roof. Unfortunately, sometimes it actually catches false positive discharges. I have noticed that when it was indoors, it worked better in this respect.

[@pygeekrfoo820]

I just put mine outside today under my weather station. About 2 hours later I got 2 false positives. Did you solve your issue?

Doesn't answer questions. Must have passed away due to COVID virus. R. I. P.
