Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We have an older home that had some mold issue we had to correct when we moved in. I have a weather stations and various temp/humidity sensors in the house but wanted a centralized unit that could display temp and humidty. The temp and humidty are very accurate (I used my high end Davis unit to compare data) from the base unit and remote sensors. I have been able to determine that having the bathroom exhaust fan for 10 min after a shower is inadequate. With this sensor, I know it needs to run for 20-30 minutes to bring the humidty below 60% again. Having this data was vital to prove to my wife that she needs to keep that fan on, which she hates doing otherwise.
I have had no issues with the display clarity and think there is adequate backlight when the button is depressed.
There are a few cons:
1) Unit lacks a max/min for temperature or humidity. I found this very surprising since Oregon Sc. has this on their other units that sell for much less. There's merit for keeping things simple but this was just being cheap on their part.
2) There is no trend indicator showing if temp & humidity are rising or falling. Again, this would have been very easy to program into the main display, but I'm getting picky.
3) Additional remote sensor prices are unreasonably inflated. This is just robbery. For the price of 2 additional sensors, you could buy a new unit with 2 remote sensors (unfortunetly, the outside doesn'ty let you change the transmission channel).
