"The [Vantage Pro2] sensor suite can send data easily through windows and walls; the transmission range is at least 1,000 feet when there is an open line of sight to the display console. I tested the device in the headquarters of Scientific American by hauling the sensor suite into an office on the other side of the floor. The signal successfully traversed doors, corridors and all kinds of partitions to arrive at the console sitting on my desk. Then I took the weather station downstairs in the elevator and set it up on the opposite side of Madison Avenue, where it continued to send data to the 12th floor."

"Why bother watching the crazy local weatherman? Now you can install a personal weather station right in your yard, on your house, or in a nearby field....The Vantage Pro2 ... displays tons of weather information at a glance, as well as the sensor station, which tracks rainfall, temperature, humidity, wind speed and more. ...using the [WeatherLink} software is pretty easy. You can display data on line or bar graphs and pie charts for quick visual reference. The ...display looks much like the console screen, only there's much more information and every detail is in full color. ...for anyone who's really affected by weather changes, this information is priceless."

"Knowing the latest weather conditions is crucial for every boater's plans. The new Vantage Pro2... accurately displays critical weather readings for boaters."
Great Lakes Boating Magazine, June 2005

"The unit that surprised us most was the most complex - a megasystem by Davis Instruments, which makes sophisticated weather products. Their flagship Vantage Pro2...was a breeze to set up and use. ...We also loved the ticker tape of forecast info. While this a station for the real weather buff, its accessibility made us feel we could finally leave Al Roker in the dust."
