The Vantage Pro2™ Plus includes all of the sensors of the Vantage Pro2™, plus a UV radiation sensor and a solar radiation sensor. These sensors allow you to monitor UV index and dose, solar radiation, and evapotranspiration. The first and only weather station in its class to use frequency-hopping, spread-spectrum radio technology to transmit weather data wirelessly up to 1,000 ft.

Each weather station includes a Vantage Pro2™ console/receiver, integrated sensor suite, and mounting hardware. The innovative, solar-powered sensor suite includes a rain collector, temperature and humidity sensors, anemometer with 40-ft cable, and a solar panel. All electronic components are housed in a weather-resistant shelter. The Vantage Pro2™ console/receiver can operate on an AC power adapter (included) or 3 C batteries (not included). It can receive data from up to 7 additional transmitting stations (not included). The longer antenna uses frequency-hopping, spread-spectrum radio for better reception and an outdoor wireless range of up to 1,000 ft in line of sight. Typical range through walls under most conditions is 200 to 400 ft. Add wireless repeaters to increase the range to almost 1 3/4 mi.
