Misol rain gauge tipping bucket rain amount

[รอเรือ]

Has someone measured what amount of rain one "tip" of the tipping bucket of the MISOL rain gauge corresponds to? It would be great to know so I can calibrate my scripts.

EDIT: I found this article that suggests it should be 0.0161 inches which is 0.40894 mm.

EDIT2: Another source is suggesting 0.2794 mm.

EDIT3: packetrat is suggesting 83.82 pulses per inch which should be 0,303030303 mm

have calculated it to 0.2794 mm per tip.

@hek Thanks! I just saw that while editing my first post. It sounds a little bit low.

Maybe you should do some tests to see if it is looks resonable.

I let 1126-202 grams water slowly flow into the 55 cm2 gauge and it generated 475 tips.

That gives me 0.3537 mm/tip. I'll go with that.
