The last few nights the outdoor sensors stopped responding in the middle of the night. They would begin sending data again a while after sunrise. I had this problem before, maybe 2012-2014, not sure of date, where I replaced the "super capacitor", which helps maintain power during the night.
The battery reads over 3 V, so battery is not likely the problem. Fortunately I had a spare capacitor from the last time I ordered one, and installed it today. Hopefully that is the fix, otherwise maybe the solar cell is bad.
I don't think I want to put too much money into another Davis unit. Price has soared and I haven't exactly had good reliability with it. The anemometer may need new bearings as well.
I might opt for one of the Ambient systems at this point. Maybe I could sell the Davis console and datalogger.
