advice for an outside (accurate) temp sensor, 433Mhz
Posted: Saturday 07 November 2015 11:20
Hi,
Currently I am using an Oregon THGR800 sensor with my RFLink. This has been working well, until 2 weeks ago, now sometimes I am having problems getting any readings, after a few hours it would pick up a new reading and loose the signal again. I already changed the battery, the channel en its location, but unfortunately no improvement. Perhaps its because its getting colder outside or more humid...
I am willing to invest in a new temperature sensor, but which one...
My requirements
- use for outside. Dont know if there are sensors that can be left in the rain, but that would be ideal
- accurate
- humidity reading is optional
Are there any types/brands that can be recommended? And do you leave your sensor out in the rain?
Ido
