ECOWITT Wittboy GW2001 Weather Station Bundle — GW2000 Wi‑Fi Hub & WS90 Solar 7‑in‑1 Outdoor Sensor, Cloud‑Enabled

The ECOWITT Wittboy GW2001 is a compact, solar-powered 7-in-1 outdoor weather station bundle with the GW2000 Wi‑Fi hub that streams temperature, humidity, wind, light/UV and rainfall data to apps and online services.

The Wittboy GW2001 pairs a rugged WS90 7-in-1 outdoor sensor with the GW2000 IoT Wi‑Fi hub so you can monitor conditions at your property in real time. The sensor uses a haptic rain detector and solar-assisted power to maintain continuous readings, while the hub uploads those readings to ECOWITT servers, Weather Underground, WeatherCloud, and other compatible platforms. Designed for garden, rooftop, and small-farm use, the unit balances durability and cloud‑sharing flexibility.

How does the WS90 sensor collect weather data reliably?

The WS90 integrates seven measurements—temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, light, UV and rainfall—into one sealed unit built for outdoor exposure. It combines a haptic-style rain detector with standard anemometer and environmental sensors to reduce mechanical wear and false readings from vibration.

• Haptic rain sensor for detailed rainfall detection and stop interpretation.
• Wind sensors for direction and speed reporting with long-range transmission.
• Solar panel plus backup batteries for continuous operation without frequent maintenance.

How do I connect the GW2000 hub and view my data online?

Connecting is straightforward: mount the hub, power it, and follow the three available Wi‑Fi configuration methods in the quick‑start guide. Once online, the hub relays sensor readings to the ECOWITT app, WS View Plus, or selected third‑party servers for graphs, history and alerts.

• Three Wi‑Fi setup options to fit different network environments.
• Compatible with Ecowitt Weather, Weather Underground, WeatherCloud, WOW and custom endpoints.
• Data graphs and historical downloads available from ECOWITT web services.

Can I expand the Wittboy system with other sensors?

Yes — the GW2000 hub supports a range of current and future ECOWITT sensors, so you can add soil moisture probes, pool thermometers, air quality monitors and leak detectors to build a comprehensive local network.

• Supports up to 8 WH51 soil moisture sensors and multiple thermo‑hygrometers.
• Compatible with WH41/WH43 air quality sensors and WH55 water leak detector.
• Mix and match sensors for gardens, greenhouses, pools and basements.

What should I know about rainfall accuracy and maintenance?

The WS90’s haptic rain detection gives reliable long‑term rainfall totals, but short‑term readings can vary with drop size and wind. For users requiring the highest precision for each rainfall event, ECOWITT recommends pairing the WS90 with the WH40 rain gauge for sampling-critical applications.

• WS90 minimizes vibration artifacts and resists harsh weather with IPX5 protection.
• Included bird spikes reduce avian interference at mounting points.
• Use WH40 alongside WS90 when precise per-event rain measurement is essential.

Who this is for: the ECOWITT Wittboy GW2001 is ideal for homeowners, hobby meteorologists, small‑scale growers and property managers who want near‑real‑time outdoor data uploaded to cloud services. It suits users who need a durable, expandable remote sensing setup with easy Wi‑Fi integration and options to add specialized probes as monitoring needs grow.
