Yes, they are really different. In v1.5 a reading that could be considered as a possible spike is completely discarded, in v2.0 a possible spike (if greater than 50 km/h) is limited to last gust value, times three. The spike is not completely eliminated, but strongly reduced.
Both methods have pros an cons. As spikes generally have a high value, I believe the method used in v2.00 is also effective, but I can be wrong or had missed any detail. If you have any reason to believe the method used in v2.0 can cause troubles, please tell me.
Have you already tried to activated it?
My question about the thunderstorms, is because the only occasion where I get spikes from my anemometer readings is during very close thunderstorms. Every time there is a strike I get a high spike on the gust readings, otherwise I never get any spike.
