Wireless Acurites?

[Zincubus]

Yes, I’m talking about using this to measure ambient temps and humidity. I check surface temps with a temp gun regularly and have all heat sources on thermostats.

What I’m planning to do is get the version that has a display unit and a wireless probe (about the size/shape of a USB drive). Then I’ll secure the probe Somewhere in the enclosure, and have the display unit in my
Bedroom where I can check ambients/humidity at my leisure, without having a big unit and bundle of wires etc in my cages.

Sounds great !!

So you check the surface temps over the warm area with a digital temp gun and adjust the thermostat settings accordingly ???

Anyways , that's what I've always done ..


I'm wondering if there should be a sticky thread or something to advise the above to anyone just starting up !?!



Sadly I keep seeing cases where newbies are just trusting the thermostat ( if they have one !) and using one of these standalone thermometers and then presuming that everything's fine and dandy ..


If anyone is unsure ... This is a digital temp gun we're talking about and they're only about 10 dollars off eBay or Amazon !!
