It works. - I must say, I’m surprised at just how well this lightning sensor works. I was lucky enough to have a major thunderstorm forecast in my area within 24 hours of setting it up, so I was able to see it working! See the photos of the display console and the graph from the app. I installed the lightning sensor with Energiser lithium batteries and the switches in default setting. Installation was easy. I already had an Ecowitt HP2564 weather station and display console (which discovered the new sensor immediately), so I attached the lightning sensor to the plastic mounting pole (see attached photo). During a thunderstorm the following day, I saw a lightning flash, followed some seconds later by thunder. About a minute later, the weather station recorded the strike at about 5 miles distant, which seemed right by my calculations. The most distant strike recorded was at 27 miles. I am very pleased with my purchase. It performs as well as I had hoped. Review: Easy to install - Item fitted today and the set up instructions weee very easy. Connection to the Ecowitt mobile app was done automatically and so was the connection to my Ecowitt WittBoy Pro weather station. I will update this post once I’ve had the opportunity to monitor its performance. So far so good and if it matches the weather station then it’s worth buying. ## Features - 【Lightning Detection Sensor】: Detects lightning bolts and storms within 25 miles (40 kilometers) the data can be viewed on our free WS View Plus or Ecowitt App after the WiFi configuration(requires a GW1100 gateway(sold separately) (Accessory Only, Can Not Be Used Alone) - 【Live Data on APP】: Requires a GW1100 WIFI gateway(sold separately) to connect to WiFi, after the WIFI configuration, you can monitor number of strikes daily, and the time & distance of the last strike detected within a 25-mile radius of your location on the Live Data page of the WS View Plus or Ecowitt app (requires the gateway and your phone is using the same Wi-Fi network). - 【Graph & History Records on Ecowitt Weather Server】: Supported to upload to our free Ecowitt Weather server(ecowitt.net) to view the lightning strikes graph and download the history records on the website; it's recommended to add a shortcut of the website on the home screen of your phone for quick access - Receive Email Alerts from the Ecowitt Weather Server; Remote monitoring with smart phone, laptop, or computer by visiting the websit. - Battery power level display on the WS View Plus App & battery alert function on the Ecowitt Weather Server. - Includes 1X Solar Radiation shield + 1X Mounting arm - Installed outdoor in free open area for better detection.

It works. *by J***M on 13 May 2025* I must say, I’m surprised at just how well this lightning sensor works. I was lucky enough to have a major thunderstorm forecast in my area within 24 hours of setting it up, so I was able to see it working! See the photos of the display console and the graph from the app. I installed the lightning sensor with Energiser lithium batteries and the switches in default setting. Installation was easy. I already had an Ecowitt HP2564 weather station and display console (which discovered the new sensor immediately), so I attached the lightning sensor to the plastic mounting pole (see attached photo).

About a minute later, the weather station recorded the strike at about 5 miles distant, which seemed right by my calculations. The most distant strike recorded was at 27 miles. I am very pleased with my purchase. It performs as well as I had hoped. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to install *by A***D on 13 December 2025* Item fitted today and the set up instructions weee very easy. Connection to the Ecowitt mobile app was done automatically and so was the connection to my Ecowitt WittBoy Pro weather station. I will update this post once I’ve had the opportunity to monitor its performance. So far so good and if it matches the weather station then it’s worth buying. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Compact unit compatable with Ecowitt weather station *by F***Y on 25 July 2023* Compact unit with outdoor weather protection kit. Bracket can be fitted to a pole or wooden fence post. Once assembled easy to remove the sensor itself for adjusting or battery replacement. It connected easily to Ecowitt 2000 hub. The sensor itself is small and about size of a small TV remote control. Dip switches to adjust for it's location. It came factory set for outdoor location. However instructions imply it can be used indoors (without the weather protection shield) but it seems outdoors away from home electrical interference is preferable. I cannot as yet verify it's accuracy as no storms in this area to prove it works! It seems well made and does connect to the Ecowitt Web pages on PC and app on Android phone. Time will tell if it does detect lightning within 25 miles of my location. It seems costly but if you want more detailed information linked to Ecowitt weather stations, mobile phone app, maps and Wunderground etc then worth considering. ## Frequently Bought Together - WH57 Wireless Lightning Detector Sensor with Email Strike Alert, Lightning Detector Portable - ECOWITT Wittboy Pro Weather Station HP2564, with 7 Inch HP2560 TFT Display Console and WS90 Outdoor Weather Sensor, Supports WU/WeatherCloud/Wow/Ecowitt Servers,915 MHz - ECOWITT WN31 Wireless Multi-Channels Thermometer and Hygrometer Sensor, Temperature & Humidity Gauge with LCD Display, Dip Switches to Switch ℃/℉(Not use as Outdoor temperautre and Humidity Sensor) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/347583411-wireless-lightning-detector-sensor-accessory-sensor-for-ecowitt-weather-station](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/347583411-wireless-lightning-detector-sensor-accessory-sensor-for-ecowitt-weather-station) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
