Davis VantagePro2 AC Power Requirements
What are the AC Power Requirements for the Davis VantagePro2?

Answer
The VantagePro2 wireless and cabled weather stations do not require AC power at the weather station. The wireless unit is powered by a combination of solar and back-up batteries. The cabled unit receives power from the console.

The wireless console will run on batteries for about one year without AC power. The cabled console will require AC as the batteries will not run the weather station continuously.

Discussion
If you need to run the console without power (stand alone applications), consider the [|Davis Instruments 6610 Solar Power Kit for Vantage Pro & Vantage Pro2].

The [|rain collector heater] will require an AC power source and includes a transformer and long power cable.
