In the past, while running Wview or Weewx, I have had times where the station has run for a few months before something would happen, like a power blip or outage. I've had the Davis console fail, batteries and capacitors in the integrated sensor unit fail, USB hubs, fail, serial port glitches, memory problems on the Raspberry-Pi, etc. But after a new Raspberry-Pi in Dec 2020, and a UPS last February 2021, the Raspberry-Pi and Weewx have been running over a year without a restart. I have had connection to the internet fail a few times, but the system keeps on recording data and updates when it is restored.
The UPS has been the biggest improvement. I'd guess we have had 3 or 4 power outages in the last year. Most were short, one was a couple of hours. But it is nice to not have to connect up to the Pi and start everything up again for every power glitch.
I have a couple of things I'd like to do on the Pi, but almost don't want to shut it down and break this streak.
