Scientific principles illustrated

This WiFi-enabled Weather Station STEM Electronics Kit provides a hands-on learning experience in several scientific and technical areas. Here are some of the skills and knowledge that can be gained from assembling and working with this kit...

Electronics Assembly

The kit involves the assembly of various electronic components, including printed circuit boards (PCBs), a display module, a voltage regulator chip, capacitors, a flick switch, and an ESP8266 WiFi module. Some of these components are a step above the more basic electronic components, such as resistors and transistors. These help to broaden perspectives on the range of components that are available to the electronic engineer. The inclusion of pre-built modules, such as the WiFi module, increases awareness that many electronics functions can be built into a device quickly with readily-available mini-circuits. This knowledge can assist aspiring electronic device inventors in expanding their ideas, encouraging them to think about how this myriad of components can be pieced together to achieve a desired effect.

Soldering Skills

Develop intricate soldering skills, which are crucial for electronics repair and prototyping your own electronics inventions or creations. This kit includes through-hole components and integrated circuits (IC's) which lay the foundation for moving onto more advanced electronics projects. It also requires some surface mount device (SMD) soldering, which adds to the challenge.

Circuit Design and Understanding

Working with multiple PCBs and integrated circuits provides an opportunity to understand circuit design and how different components interact to create a functional device. Users will get to see how a vast amount of electronics technology can be condensed into miniature components that are smaller than a fingernail.

IoT (Internet of Things)

The ESP-015 WiFi module and the ability to connect to the internet make this kit a practical introduction to basic Internet of Things (IoT) concepts. Users will learn how to configure the device to fetch and display real-time weather data from the internet.

Troubleshooting and Problem-Solving

Assembling and programming the weather station may involve overcoming challenges, fostering troubleshooting and problem-solving skills. Diagnosing circuit problems is one of the core skills of an electronics enthusiast. It can be extremely satisfying for an aspiring electronic engineer when they identify and resolve an issue that is preventing a device from functioning properly.

Data Display and User Interface Design

Designing and switching between different interfaces on the OLED display involves understanding user interface design principles and programming the display to showcase relevant information.

WiFi Networking Concepts

The inclusion of the WiFi module introduces users to basic concepts of WiFi networking, including connectivity setup and real-time data updates.

Aesthetics and Design

The clear acrylic case and the design considerations in making the device visually appealing introduce concepts related to aesthetics and design in electronics.


Overall, this STEM electronics kit provides a comprehensive learning and skills-development experience, touching on various STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) disciplines and facilitating the development of a deeper understanding of electronics concepts.

Can’t get the weather

I assembled this kit but the website to get the weather code for your location, and I’m assuming where it actually pulls the weather from is no longer in service, making this essentially useless. How do I get my money back?

Hi J.Taubler, thank you for leaving your review. I have just checked the website before responding to your review and see that it is still very much ins service and fully functional. Furthermore none of the other thousands of customers for this product have claimed the same issue. Nonetheless, I have passed the info onto our technical team to see if there may be some local or regional issues impacting your area and we'll email you if there are. I can see from our records that your order was placed in April this year and it's now December suggesting you've had a fully-functioning device for the last 8 months or so - if you configured your device this far back, it's possible that your token has expired on the website. You simply need to go back to the site and refresh your token or create a new one as per our instruction manual. Please remember we have technical support to help customers resolve issues with anything that you buy from us, so that should always be your first port of call if you experience an issue.

Not Working so far

Bought this Kit and soldered it together , it powered up ok but having huge difficulties trying to connected up and configure it ... instructions dont seem to work for me

Hi Patrick, Thank you for your purchase and for taking the time to leave a review. Congratulations on successfully completing the assembly of your kit! As with many Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, there are a few steps that need to be followed in sequence to configure it properly. We’ve emailed you detailed instructions, including photographs and screenshots, to guide you through the connection process. If you continue to experience difficulties after going through the instructions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at info@thesciencehut.com. Our technical team will be happy to walk you through the steps to get your device connected and configured.

Neat electronics kit

Great little kit! Very happy with the purchase. I thought the settings would be wiped after disconnecting the power, but it stores the configuration even after it has been powered off for a while... pretty neat!

Hi Ernest, thank you for taking the time to review your kit, we really appreciate it. It is great that it stores your settings, even without a built-in power source. It does this by storing your settings in solid-state memory within the device, so it can store information without a power source in much the same way as a USB storage drive can. Delighted you're happy with the product!

Awesome kit

Very pleased with this. Nice challenge to build it, instructions from the website provide excellent details step-by-step on how to set it up to display local weather. Nice neat display. Only thing that would make it better for me is if it had its own power supply. Easy enough to add one yourself, just solder wires to the power terminals on the PCB and connect a battery, there's plenty of room inside the case for watch batteries. Great electronics kit for the price! Highly recommended.

Hi Ronnie, thank you for leaving this great review, we really appreciate you taking the time to do so. What a great idea about customising the device to install a battery - there certainly is room in the casing! We'd love to see the result if you'd like to follow up with a photo!

Cool kit using pre-built modules

I love it... it's based on a few pre-built modules and it works like a charm... I have purchased some IoT kits in the past (from other stores) and couldn't ever seem to get them to work, but this works exactly as described in the instructions that I downloaded using the link on the product page. I've the Arduino kit ordered now, can't wait for that to arrive.

Thank you so much for your review Henry, we're delighted you have had a good experience with this kit. I've checked our system and see your Arduino kit is due to arrive in the next couple of days... be sure to let us know how you get on with it!
