With the AcuRite Digital Wireless Rain Gauge, rainfall measurements collected by an outdoor sensor are transmitted to an indoor tabletop or wall-mounted LCD display unit (via wireless technology through walls and from a considerable distance). The outside rain collector is of weather-resistant construction, produces a strong (433 MHz) signal, and automatically self-empties after the rain event has been recorded. Features of the inside digital readout unit include: measurements shown in inches and millimeters, programmable cumulative rainfall history capability, rainfall and flood-watch alarms, clock, calendar, and low-battery indicator.
