I use a Netatmo weather station and although the outdoor sensor is supposed to be weatherproof I like to keep it protected from the worst of the elements and a case like this one allows it to measure the temperature, humidity and air quality but keeps the rain and snow off and does not attenuate the wireless signal.
Priced today at £18.09 (slightly less when I bought it) on Amazon it is not too dear and although the same company have now produced a rather posher £30 version with a built-in solar-powered fan, I am happy enough with this one.
In the box you receive the case itself, a user guide and a mounting kit consisting of a screw and wallplug set and velcro tape to secure the sensor to the mounting post inside the case. All you are going to need is included in the kit.
The main unit consists of a lightweight flexible plastic tubular case with a detachable base and a wall bracket into which it slots. The case can be easily removed from the wall bracket as and when required.
Build quality seems fine, although rather lightweight but it could be argued that is a feature designed to reduce the effect of the case on the radio signal to the sensor. The base of the unit can be removed and features an upright mounting post to which the sensor can be secured. On the base is a drain hole as the slats in the case wall allow the wind to pass through but also a certain amount of rain.
I secured my Netatmo sensor to the mounting post using the velcro strips leaving a small gap between the bottom of the sensor and the case floor to protect it from any water pooling which might occur.
After a couple of months of use checking inside the case, I could find no sign of weather damage or water pooling although the velcro had sagged and the sensor was now resting on the base.
So there it is. If you have a weather sensor or any similar external device that you need to protect from the worst of the elements, then this would be a pretty decent buy.
