Not everyone likes to purchase sensor for their daily usage, but the sensorpush first sensor would be an anomoly. This is an amazing wireless freezer thermometer that works with iphone. It allows you to look back at historical data for a better understanding of seasonal temperatures and humidity. It will work with all bluetooth devices including ipads and android devices etc. The sensor device should connect to Apple and Android devices with these operating system specs. The app allows alert ranges to be set, so you can know when there’s a problem without constant checking.
The sensor itself communicates only using BlueTooth. As long as you check it often when they are in the car it is a perfect tool. It allows for the system to “push” an alarm when either temp, humidity or both are out of the specified range.
Why We Like This:
The bigger range, the slower transmission speed
Real world performance will be reduced by objects, walls, etc
You can pair 2 sensors to 1 app almost instantly
Keeps data on board in case you don't connect to it for several days

Thanks to the remote sensor probe and digital lcd readout, you can accurately and quickly monitor the temperature of your terrarium with this digital terrarium thermometer with temperature probe. The sensor is a resistance type humidity sensor and it will take time for the special salt between conductive elements to release moisture when the rh drops and to respond to the rh decreasing. The sensor data sheet shows that the sensor is a + /-5 % rh device and these two temperature / humidity devices are displaying rh that is within + /-5 % rh. The humidity reading reacts very quickly to changes. The probe is small and wire is long. It comes with an extra set which helps.
