It's an 8" bucket and it comes in 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.25mm, or 0.1". Can't find the price though.
I've read too many complaints about the Davis rain buckets needing to be calibrated when brand new. And I don't necessarily need a heated bucket since I measure snow with a ruler.
Hello,
Do you speak about this one?

Davis is precise. It should simply well be gauged. The method is long and irritating.
If that interests, I can poster the method.
But much of people forget a precise calibration does not have any value if that is not to compare with a manual pluviometer.

One needs a comparison over several weeks to refine the volume of calibration of Davis (4.2ml - > 3.6ml according to wear).
If you want more precision/less calibration it is necessary to go to see the models calibrated with certification of calibration (Mécanique&Precis, Delta,…) but it is not the same price… 800/1000€.
