"The
Davis Vantage Pro I bought from you guys is simply awesome!
All of the information you gave me prior to making the purchase
was right on the money. The unit was competitively priced
and most important you had the friendliest staff anyone
could possibly ask for. Any other weather station related
purchases that I may need you will be the FIRST company that
I will call upon! Thanks for everything."

This weather station is made in the USA by Davis Instruments. They have been around since 1963 and provide exceptional customer service and support. You will not find their products in "volume" stores, only at specialty retailers like WeatherShack.com!
Two key factors that set the Vantage Pro2 apart from most other complete weather stations are the refresh rate and the transmission distance:
Refresh Rate - A packet of data is sent from the outdoor transmitter to the receiver every 2 1/2 seconds! This means when you look out the window and see the wind blowing, the weather station will reflect it almost immediately.
Transmission Distance (This applies to the wireless version) - Line of sight range is 1000'. Typical range under most conditions is 300' to 500'. This is a much greater distance than most other professional units.

"I ordered the Davis Vantage Pro weather station
from you on Monday, received it on Tuesday, and had
every thing up and running by Tuesday night. The unit
was easy to set up... If I can set it up anybody can.
It is working perfect. I appreciate the fast delivery.
Thanks again for taking time to answer my questions
before I placed the order. If I need any more weather
equipment I will be sure to contact you folks."

format. Thanks again."
