SISCO fun rain gauge made of durable metal with waterproof coated. This pretty rain gauge can not only be used to measure rainfall, but also serves as a decorative garden stake. It measures rainfall and lights up at night to add extra visibility and style to your garden or yard.
Three-section Detachable Connection Design
- Flexible height adjustment to meet different scenarios: The three-section structure supports users to freely combine the height according to the installation environment, such as setting the full height to about 92cm (36 inches) or removing the middle section to adjust to a height more suitable for low-level scenes such as balconies and flower beds to meet various needs.
- The threaded joint is stable and durable: Each section of the rod is equipped with a metal thread, which is firmly plugged in and not easy to loosen, ensuring that the rain gauge can remain stable and upright in the wind and rain outdoors.
- Easy to transport and store, save space: After disassembly, the three sections of the rod can be stored in a smaller package, which is easy to store and carry, and is not easily damaged during transportation.
- Upgraded structural design, more convenient replacement of parts: The segmented design is not only convenient for daily cleaning and maintenance, but also can be replaced separately if a section of the rod is damaged, reducing maintenance costs.
The Ornamental Rain Gauge has a Function of Solar Panel Power Supply
- Solar panel power supply: The top or side is equipped with a built-in solar panel, which absorbs sunlight and automatically charges during the day. It is environmentally friendly and energy-saving, does not require an external power supply, and is suitable for long-term outdoor use.
- Warm white LED light: The decorative rain gauge has a built-in warm white LED light, which automatically lights up at night and emits a soft light. It is both beautiful and practical, creating a romantic courtyard atmosphere.
- Independent switch design: The bottom is equipped with a physical switch, which can manually control the light switch. The operation is simple and easy to adjust the use status.
- Ground installation: It is equipped with a sturdy ground support rod, which can be easily inserted into the lawn and soil. It has strong stability and is suitable for a variety of scenes such as gardens, balconies, and grasslands.

Q1: What is a rain gauge?
A1: A rain gauge is a meteorological instrument designed to accurately measure the amount of rainfall over a set period, usually recorded in millimeters or inches. It collects rainwater in a funnel or container, allowing for precise quantification of precipitation, which is vital for weather forecasting, agricultural planning, water resource management, and environmental research. There are several types of rain gauges, including manual gauges that require periodic reading, tipping bucket gauges that automatically record rainfall by counting bucket tips, weighing gauges that measure the weight of collected water, and advanced optical or radar-based gauges that estimate rainfall remotely.
Q2: Why a rain gauge is important?
A2: A rain gauge is important because it provides accurate and reliable measurements of rainfall, which are essential for weather forecasting, managing water resources, agriculture, and flood prevention. By tracking precipitation levels, rain gauges help farmers optimize irrigation, enable meteorologists to predict storms and droughts, support water authorities in managing reservoirs and flood control, and contribute to climate research and environmental monitoring. Without precise rainfall data, it would be much harder to make informed decisions that protect communities and sustain ecosystems.
Q3: Can a rain gauge be any size?
A3: A rain gauge can come in various sizes, but its dimensions must be carefully designed to ensure accurate and reliable measurements. Larger gauges can collect more rainwater and are often used in professional or research settings, while smaller, more portable gauges are convenient for personal or educational use. However, the size of the collection area affects the sensitivity and precision of the readings, so rain gauges are typically designed following standard dimensions to balance ease of use with measurement accuracy.
Tips: Does a decorative rain gauge still measure rainfall accurately?
Yes, a decorative rain gauge can still measure rainfall accurately — as long as it is properly designed and installed. While its appearance is more artistic, the measuring tube typically includes precise, clearly marked graduations (in millimeters or inches) just like standard rain gauges. To ensure accuracy, the gauge should be placed on level ground, away from obstructions like trees or buildings that could block or deflect rainfall. As long as it's upright and unobstructed, a decorative rain gauge offers both reliable measurements and aesthetic appeal.
