What This Model Is For
The FT0804 RF Weather Station is a complete indoor console and outdoor sensor system that measures temperature and humidity both indoors and outdoors, displays barometric pressure and weather forecast, and sends updates every 60 seconds over a 433MHz link. It supports up to eight additional thermo-hygrometer sensors, making it suitable for monitoring multiple zones within a building or garden. The console features a large 7-inch LCD with blue backlight and includes alarm functions, dew point display, and min/max recording for daily analysis. It operates on four AAA batteries for the console and two AAA batteries for the outdoor sensor, with a 5.9V power adapter included for continuous operation.
- One console manages up to eight outdoor sensors, reducing the need for multiple displays
- 60-second transmission interval provides timely updates without overwhelming the RF channel
- 433MHz link reaches 100 meters in open air, suitable for most residential and light commercial sites
- Blue backlight improves readability in low-light conditions
- Supports both Celsius and Fahrenheit, with automatic unit switching on the console

Materials and Construction
- Moulded plastic housing for the console and outdoor sensor
- Weather sealed outdoor enclosure for the sensor body
- Battery compartment sized for 2 x AAA cells in the outdoor sensor
How It Is Made
Console and sensor sub-assemblies are assembled on our own production lines
Outdoor sensor housings are sealed and tested on rainfall and waterproof test equipment
Each unit undergoes final ageing test before packing
Assembly includes soldering and component insertion on dedicated lines
Quality Control
- Rainfall and waterproof testing on the assembled outdoor sensor
- Constant temperature and humidity chamber runs to verify -40 to +60 degrees C performance
- Vibration testing to simulate transport and site loading
- Smog ageing to assess long-term housing and seal integrity
- Final ageing test on every unit before packaging
Customisation Options
- Own-label printing on console and sensor housing
- Retail packaging with customer branding
- Manual and quick start guide in the destination language
- Alternative battery configurations on request
Compared With the Alternatives
vs Separate indoor and outdoor units with no console integration
One console reduces the number of displays and simplifies setup, but limits the number of sensors to eight
vs Wi-Fi weather stations requiring a router and app
433MHz is simpler and more reliable in areas with weak Wi-Fi; no app dependency
vs LoRa-based sensors for long-range sites
433MHz is sufficient for a single property; LoRa is better for fields or large campuses
Use Guide
- Place the console in a central indoor location, away from direct sunlight and heat sources
- Mount the outdoor sensor at least 1.5 meters above ground, clear of obstructions
- Align the sensor away from walls and metal surfaces to avoid interference
- Insert batteries into the console and sensor before first use, and connect the power adapter if needed
- Calibrate temperature, humidity, and barometer on the console using known reference values
- Check battery levels monthly and replace when low, especially in cold weather
FT0804 RF Weather Station Questions
What is the real range between the console and outdoor sensor
100 meters in open air. Through walls, foliage, or a roof, expect around 30 meters, which covers most homes and gardens.
How often does it update the readings
Every 60 seconds, which balances timely updates with battery life and RF stability.
Can I use the power adapter with the outdoor sensor
No. The power adapter is only for the console. The outdoor sensor runs on two AAA batteries.
How many sensors can the console support
The console supports up to eight thermo-hygrometer sensors, including the included FT007TH.
What certifications does it carry
TBC. Ask us for the current certificate set for your destination market before you place the order.
What is the lead time and minimum order
Tell us the quantity and target ship date and we will confirm both by email. Lead time depends on whether own-label printing and packaging are involved.
