Davis Vantage Pro2


Weather Station

Davis Instruments 6152, 6153, 6162, 6163

If you're looking for a superior weather station, the Davis Vantage Pro2 Weather Station is as good as they come! The quality of this unit is apparent from the moment you first open the box. In addition to home users, this popular weather station can be found in schools, airports, and fire departments across the country.


"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 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 other professional units.

Satisfaction Guaranteed!
Try this product for 30 days, and if not satisfied, return it in original condition for a complete refund (less shipping and handling). All products also come with a one or two year manufacturer warranty.

Delivery Options:
UPS Ground shipping is included free with your order. During checkout you may select Next Day, Second Day, or Three Day Select service for an additional fee.

"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."
