## Overview

The Ambient Weather WH31L Lightning Detector enhances your WS-2000 or WS-5000 weather station by detecting lightning within a 25-mile radius using a 915 MHz RF sensor. Compact and battery-powered, it transmits updates every 79 seconds to multiple platforms including cloud services and smart home devices, enabling timely alerts and smarter storm preparedness.

## Description

The WH31L lightning detector identifies storm activity within a 25 mile range(40 km) of your location, with a RF 915 MHz wireless range of 330 feet line of sight (100 feet under most conditions). This personal lightning detector operates by detecting the electromagnetic pulse (EMP) emitted by a lightning strike. By measuring the strength of the detected EMP, the device can then estimate the distance from the detected strike. The sensor has three settings to adjust the sensitivity for possible interference. Add to your Ambient Weather WS-2000 and WS-5000 weather stations. The sensor transmits this information once per 79 seconds to the display console of your choice, or our cloud service AmbientWeather.net. The information can then be accessed through the console, online dashboard, desertcart Alexa, Google Home, IFTTT, and much more. You can also send email, text or IFTTT alerts. CAUTION! Ambient Weather DOES NOT RECOMMEND THIS DEVICE FOR SAFETY, BOTH PERSONAL AND PUBLIC. DO NOT MAKE IMPORTANT LIFE-THREATENING DECISIONS BASED ON THIS DEVICE. Personal lightning detectors cannot measure the exact location of a lightning strike and are sensitive to false alarms. Although they function well with respect to their ability to detect nearby lightning, they are quite basic in functionality when compared to professional lightning detectors. For example, they cannot tell where a lightning strike was located, or from which direction the lightning is approaching, only that lightning is in the area. Also, since a personal lightning detector is triggered by EMPs, interference from other EMP-emitting devices (such as electronic equipment, appliances, fluorescent lights and even car engines) can sometimes result in either false alarms or missed strikes. This interference often has the additional effect of preventing personal lightning detectors from functioning properly while indoors or near outdoor electronic equipment.
