Better resolution at rain gauge + heater

Better resolution at rain gauge

I have made a patent for to have better resolution at rain gauge.Now at resolution at rainfall it is 0,25 mm from 0,5 mm at La-crosse rain gauge,and i do a correction - 50 % decrease from the weather software,for to have the really rainfall. The top of plastc box is twice of surface area of the La crosse rain gauge.I take 2 plastic boxes one big and the other one smaller,i cut the bottom two of them ,i stick betwen them bottom with bottom with warm silicone.And after i put to the top plastic box ,four pieces plastic from tent,and i stick them with warm silicone,for the rain to go inside at La crosse rain gauge.And i put all of them over to La crosse rain gauge like hat.

Here it is the 2 plastic boxes ,little plastic for tent ,and the warm silicone.The dimension it is for small plastic box 9 cm x 18 cm x 6,5 cm high. And the big plastic box 9 cm x 18 cm x 13 cm high	Here i have open one square hole at center of the bottom to one plastic box 4,5 cm x 11,5 cm	Here i have open and two of them,square hole at center of the bottom of them 4,5 cm x 11,5 cm


Here i have stick 2 plastic box together bottom by bottom,with warm silicone	Here i have stick 2 plastic pieces for tent ,with warm silicone	Here i have stick and another two plastic pieces for tent,with warm silicone and it is already


Here it is from the down side	Here it is from front side	And here it is over to rain gauge like hat,on the roof


After about two years i make another two of them,and for better protect plastic from the sun,i paint it with special white color for anti-UV sun radiation	Click here for you see video

Rain gauge heater

I make another one modification ,heater rain gauge for to melt the ice,if there are very cold days with snow, the snow sit over to rain gauge no melt,and do not have mm rainfall,and after 2--4 days it melt slowly slowly from sun light and up temperature ,but so i loss the really mm rainfall from snow ,and so i make a modification heater rain gauge with 2 halogen lights G4 12 volt 5 watts.I use electronic thermostat.

Here it is the AC/DC adaptor 12 vVolt 3 Amber waterproof box ,2 halogen lights G4 12 v 5 w ,cable,fuse	Here it is the rain gauge ,lights base ,and conection for cables	Here i mark the right position where must to put the lights base ,i will put the light near to the roof for to have this positon more heater


	Here i open 3 holes from every side one big hole 5 mm diameter at centre for to pass the lights cable outside to rain gauger and 2 smaller 3 mm diameters for the screws to keep the light base	Here it is the 2 halogen light inside to rain gauge


Here i make a test all is fine	The consumption current Amber it is and at 2 lights 0,8 Amber at 12 Volt DC	Here it is the AC/DC adaptor in the waterproof case


	Here it is ready ,i put warm silicone over to screws ,and at hole of cable	Here i put a car thermometer with thin sensor over to plastic surface for to see the different temperature over to top of rain gauge,inside temperature it was 19,1 c and over to plastic surface rain gauge it was 36,8 c


Here it is ready over to my roof ,the plastic box from outside rain gauge like hat ,it is for better resolution,and it keep more hot around rain gauge	Here it is the electronic thermostat range temp + 5 c until +30 c,and the waterproof case	Here i connect the cable at electronic thermostat


Cable connect it is ok	Here i make a test to electronic thermostat if it work well ,and all it is fine	And here the same


And here it is ready in my Stevenson screen box
