Our second weather station has stopped working. It was installed in November 2014 and had worked reasonably well, but has now ceased working. Our first weather station (which was installed in January 2013) lasted a similar amount of time. I have put new batteries and cleaned all the contacts, but the base station only seems to connect to the display unit for a few hours at a time. I am getting fed up with rebooting it and a weather station is of limited use if it only works for a few hours at a time. I think it is the weather (and the spiders) that get to the outdoor instruments. Also the plastic has started to suffer with the affects of excessive UV (yes, even up here in Yorkshire).
Given that this was the second one of these that we have had, I think it is about time that we either give up with the weather station or trade up to a more professional unit. This looks like it is more up to the job, but it does come at a price (particularly when you consider that a USB connector is extra).
