I've recently replaced my Vantage Pro II because it was disintegrating and they said the old console should work just fine, and it did. However if I wanted to get another Vantage Pro II, and had to get a new console with it, what's the solution if I only want to publish to my own server? (I have no use for Davis' website, or WU; I publish to CWOP & a couple others that are configured in weewx).
What are you  doing in this scenario?
Thanks
Phil

You’ll have to buy the Davis Weather Envoy–which has not been discontinued–or you could buy a used [old] console.  Either one will take a USB data logger.

I was never a fan of the consoles (they are bulky and I don’t need the display).  As such, I switched to Envoys (but it is +$200 for the Envoy if you are buying a new station).

If you're just looking for the Integrated Sensor Suite, Scale
Instruments does sell them. About a year ago I was having transmitter
issues and after trying several things I bought a new ISS with the solar
sensors.
