Hi John, thanks for your message.

I do confess, I do have a reasonable understanding of electronic components. I have had an interest in it since a kid and would often build my own little projects.

A basic knowledge of electronics will be good to see this project through. It will help if you have a little bit of past experience soldering and being able to identify components. You might be able to find some entry level kits in an electronics store like Radio Shack, Jaycar or Altronics which you can get started with to get an understanding of what is going on if you have not done anything with electronics before.

The WeatherDuino circuit boards are well layed out with good tracks and markings as to what component goes where; there really is not much to go wrong as the documentation which is also on this forum will give reference as to what goes where.

Sometimes Werk_AG does offer pre-assembled and tested boards for sale. I think you may be a perfect candidate for one of these boards. Check out this post here: http://www.meteocercal.info/forum/Thread...led-boards

This would get you well and truly started. All you would then by required to do would be build the enclosures for the inside and outside units and order some parts like the temperature sensors etc. There is still a lot of work to be done once the boards are assembled, so do not feel like you are missing out on too much by getting assembled boards; it just means the fiddly work is done for you.

I hope this is helpful John.
