Frost-Proof Electronic Rain Gauge FARM HOME Miscellaneous 20-3-29 New electronic rain gauge lets you see how much it has rained without leaving your home.
The Rain-O-Matic is accurate to within 1 percent, empties automatically, and is frost-proof so you can leave it outside all year long, says Husson Inc., Racine, Wis. It consists of an outdoor rain collector connected by cable to an indoor, battery-operated monitor. The collector can be placed anywhere from 25 to 300 ft. from a building. The inside monitor shows how much rain has fallen at any given time in .10 increments.
The collector is self-emptying to protect it from frost damage. A spoon automatically tips and empties as soon as it receives 1/10 of an inch of rain and transmits a signal to the counter.
Sells for $69 including batery and 33 ft. of cable. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Husson Inc., 230 Old Pine Circle, Racine, Wis. 53402 (ph 414 681-1960).
