The Z-Weather is an energy-autonomous wind and weather sensor that is powered by a small solar module. Thanks to the intelligent energy management and the internal capacitor, the wind sensor can also send measurement results to the Z-Wave central unit at night.
The energy management varies the "wake-up intervals" of the sensor between 5 minutes (on sunny days) and 1 to 2 hours on cloudy days or at the beginning of the day. In addition, the energy management ensures that the capacitor of the multisensor is never deeply discharged, so that in case of emergency it has enough energy to report strong winds and storms as well as twilight and to trigger appropriate actions.
