How are the Davis Instruments weather stations powered?

Sensor suites:

  • The wireless sensor suites and transmitters have solar panels and super capacitors with a backup lithium battery
  • The cabled sensor suites are either plugged into a Weather Envoy or EnviroMonitor IP Gateway and use mains power or, if plugged into a 6803 EnviroMonitor Gateway, are powered by the Gateway’s solar panel

Consoles and receivers:

  • The legacy consoles, WeatherLink Live, Weather Envoys, and EnviroMonitor IP Gateway run off mains power and have the option of adding backup batteries
  • The 6313 WeatherLink Console uses mains power and has a built in battery, like a tablet
