Hi,
I recently ordered the OurWeather kit when you offered the discount through your newsletter.
It's working great and I can't wait to add a dozen more sensors, learn Arduino programming and blog the results.
I'm writing in to let you know of the wind and rain external element's extreme sensitivity to Loctite, Loctite 222 in this case.
The photos linked below show how a few drops of Loctite on each screw ate into the plastic within a minute.
I thought I'd fastened it too tight, in spite of being careful about the amount of torque when setting it up.
A warning in the quick start dock about this may help others.
