AcuRite 06052M Remote Battery Pack for 5-in-1 Weather Sensors

***Update #2 (December 8, 2020): Both remote battery pack and AcuRite weather station are going strong without any issues. Still ORIGINAL batteries since Christmas 2018 ~ Using Lithium batteries as better in Cold climate weather.** **Update (March 18, 2020): The remote battery pack is still is use without issue....AND still the original batteries since Christmas 2018....We have experienced all weather conditions since then and the unit has literally weathered them all from nearly -50 C to + 30 C...snow, rain and a LOT of sunshine!! Very pleased!!** Gifted for Christmas 2018 with the AcuRite weather station and it is completely compatible. It was received quickly and works well so far. The cord is long enough to allow for easy access to the batteries for changing them all while keeping the main battery compartment undercover and out of the elements. A great feature is the fact that the batteries are separated into two sets so that you can ensure you do not lose your historical data when changing the batteries. I hope this review was helpful!

Works great , hopefully saves going on roof to change batteries

The 'Remote Battery Pack' is a must have for anyone with an AcuRite Weather Station. The higher you can mount your station the better the better the accuracy of the wind speed is. Mine is on mounted on an 8' pole that is attached to the roof of my house. Without the battery pack I would not have been able to mount it that high, nor would I have mounted it on the roof at all. Have the battery pack mounted under the roof of my porch, means all I have to do is walk out to my porch to change the batteries. No issues with weather and no ladder needed. It has its own mounting bracket built into the unit, and it is easy to open the cover to get to and change the batteries. A very well designed product with ample cable provided, so that you can mount your weather station in an effective location, and still safely change the batteries.

Great for those weather stations that are high and out of reach... Also the idea that data is not lost when battery changes are made is the most important. Great product so far !!

Always dreaded having to crawl up onto the roof to change out batteries on the sending unit. Usually there was only one battery that was low. This attachment took only minutes to install and is a great time saver, not to mention probably an eventual life saver in the long run. I'm sure it was only a matter of time before I fell off the roof while changing batteries, but now it is a simple matter of walking over into the closet and opening the battery case and installing a new battery. Great! Really great! always hated crawling up onto the roof to change out batteries
