I am thinking of adding a few 1-wire sensors to my existing station. I am will be adding a lighning sensor, UV sensor and Solar sensor. Will all of these work with WD?

Hi,
Simple answer…Yes they will. My whole weather station is 1-wire.
If you get into 1-wire, I reckon you’ll end up going the same way.

Can you recommend a good tutorial for cable connections and such?
This will be my first time using 1-Wire and I want to be sure I have all parts here ready to go when I get the sensors

Also a very good place to buy 1-wire stuff with good support.

I agree with w0mbat, I have converted my whole system over to 1-wire from Hobby Boards.

Well, I started my conversion to 1-wire by adding a lightning and solar sensor to my existing system. However, the only thing wrong so far is that WD is not counting sunshine hours from the solar sensor.

I have replied to your question about that in your other thread…

Thanks, I see how it goes tomorrow. It should be sunny enough to test it.
