The package is equiped with console and integrated sensor suite with outside & inside temperature & humidity, barometer, wind, and rain sensors as standard. The radiation shield is passive. The 'plus' also integrates UV and solar radiation sensors. The console power is sourced via three C batteries or AC adapter. Data is transfered using a wireless solar-powered transmitter.
