TAG weather station

Tim Barrett · 01-26-2020, 02:16 PM

I have an old TAG weather station that thankfully it's still very accurate for me. The only issue with it is the battery that keeps that date going has died. Every time I start it it opens with January 1st. Not a big issue cause the ET it predicts is great even on those days that alot of guys get fooled with the air,,,anyway I'm bored waiting for racing season to start and thought someone might have changed the internal battey.

This has happened to me on older computers. There is a separate dime sized battery that is responsible for charging the memory that keeps the date. If you have the nerve and a set of small screwdrivers, take the back off and look for a small removable battery. The one in my computer was a watch style one. Check the number on it first (if it's there) and check availability of a replacement before trying to remove/replace it. Some are soldered in.

Good luck.
