    the only problem i see is that it doesnt have a probe. the probe is so you can measure the warm side, and leave the thermometer on the cool side so you can get measurements of both. atleast that is what i think.

    "Transmission range up to 328 feet (unobstructed)."

    It implies that there is (or IT IS) some sort of wireless probe. Perhaps that's the thing at the bottom of the page you can buy for an extra $30. Or, perhaps what you bought is the "probe" and you need a base unit. It's kind of confusing, and I didn't read closely. I'd return it and go with the cheaper one (although that'll work fine, I think). You're BP doesn't care what time it is though :P I would just try another store...

    Well I am sure it work but I also think it give you only one temp when this one can give you the temp on both cool and warm side and humidity and for less money too http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?actio...7GT&lpage=none
