Yours I'm sure.
Do you run it all the time or just when a likely interesting event is due?
There was something similar in the Physics Lab at school but not in regular use, I think it was demonstrated one day though.
The school had an impressive weather station including a solar globe thing that burnt onto cards- and supplied records to the paper weekly in the 1970s.
In those days it was all manual recording and resetting at 9am stuff

I run my barograph all the time, it`s a Norfolk barograph from Russell Scientific Instruments. I`ve had it for around 13 years so I`ve got charts going back that far. I was feeling a bit flush when I bought it for around £800 but todays price is around £1500.


If I had been aware of digital barographs back then I would probably have bought one instead. Mine only records air pressure while your digital one seems to do much more.


It`s a fine looking instrument though, all mahogany, brass, and bevelled glass (it should be for the price) and takes pride of place on top of the piano.
