Oregon Scientific is out of business - this is sad

Oregon Scientific is out of business. I'm desperate, because they were making the best mini weather stations. I've been using their products forever. Now I've checked their competitors and all their products suck.

Their site is still up, but all products are unavailable:

We are facing an economic collapse. Expect more of this.

How long were you aware of their struggle?

I wasn't. My sensor died, so I tried to buy a new one. Then I discovered that their stuff is all out of stock.

Do they have repair and service manuals available on the site? Now might be the time to download them and upload them to repair site's like ifixit. You might not be the only person with product loyalty.

Didn't find repair manuals.

Unless you lived in Fort Collins, CO their atomic clock reception was shit. The antennas were useless. Nice monitoring stations though.

Yeah, I disabled the atomic clock. But the rest was great.
