Pros & Cons
Pros
The sensor has a plastic loop on the top as well as a screw cutout for easy installation. Pairing with the sensor was automatic. We have another temp gauge that is right on with the thermostat and this one is 2 degrees warmer consistently.
The display has a thin plastic easel stand so that it is self-standing. Fancy pants model with a zillion functions. It’s not fancy but is quite serviceable.
Display is a little reddish and darker instead of the green gray in the picture. Easy to read big numbers are the outdoor, shows indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity, time, and date.
Cons
Date and time needs to be reset after each battery change. Got booted off twice when got to number one in queue. Tried everything (new batteries, clean contacts, multiple re-boots, etc) to fix to no avail.
The display accuracy has a lot to be desired! Three sensors with three different readings all within one foot of each other. Neither synched with remote sensor.
Highlights
Quality
I love everything about it it’s very convenient works great good on batteries
Everything from acurite is of high quality
After just a month the sensor started giving us constant 99 outdoor humidity readings
This thermometer maintains contact over 165 feet and i dont see it searching for the remote
Price
Easily the least expensive to upgrade your indoor out door monitoring while at your house
Use 2 lithium for the outside unit 5 bucks here on amazon
No bells whistles but for the price it is ok
Shipping
Arrived in plenty of time for christmas
Came on time and just as described
Competitiveness
As an alternative you can place sensors in different outdoor locations such as pumphouse shed or chicken coop

Perhaps it’s a good thing i couldn’t get a new sensor
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The base unit has been relocated and perhaps there was interference from the coffee maker or toaster

Initially i could not get a good connection between the remote and indoor unit then reread the directions and discovered that the new batteries in the indoor unit were not good
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
After replacing the batteries i left the outdoor unit inside 68 feet away from the indoor unit
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It took a few minutes to lock on for a connection but after that the units were within a couple of degreespercentages of each other
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
But the official temperature reading is from a location a few miles from my house and presumably expertly located to give accurate readings

I havent had the system long enough to evaluate battery life but i did use lithium batteries in the outdoor unit as recommended
