Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes
Can anybody point me in the right direction for a Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes. I have monitoring apparatus in place now but im looking for something more accurate. Tnx in advance.
Re: Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes
Accu-rite seems to be the popular one. I am not sure if I spelled the name right, but you can find it at Walmart.
Re: Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes
Yeah alot of people use the acu-rite brand, you can find them at walmart or lowes for like 12 bucks or so. I found another one at Target for about the same price, different brand but same features. Hope that helps.
Re: Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes
Thanks for the info. Are any of these available on the net? Unfortunately we don't have any walmarts or lowes here in Ireland.
Re: Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes
Yeah they should be available online.
Re: Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes
I've been searching for a bit now and cant find what im looking for, can anyone refer me to where they have got one online?
Re: Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes
I got both of my acu-rites here.
Edit: woops, I just realized they don't ship internationally
Re: Digital Thermometer/Hydrometer with probes
Found one on ebay. I should have know to check there:rolleye2:

AaronT - which part of Ireland are you from - I am just outside Belfast, regularly visit the US and pick up stuff like Acu-Rite all the time - if you were close I could bring one (or more) for you.

Here is another version that has the temp and humidity gauge on the probes (Accurite's measure humidity at the unit)...that should can be found on the web.

Because it uses both probes to give an ambient reading, you can't check out the heat/humidity of just one side of the enclosure, which is what I wanted.
That said, I am in the market for a single hydro-meter without the temp at all. Anybody have any suggestions? Maybe something that can just stick on the class to give me a nice ambient humidity reading?
