Review: Finally, a good quality wireless thermometer! - I have several wireless thermometers. My main complaint with them is the lack of accuracy. I did some research and found the product line from Ambient Weather. I bought this one because it came with the wireless temperature sensor for the pool, as well as a thermometer/hygrometer outdoor sensor. I read the other reviews on desertcart and saw that many people expressed extreme frustration with the setup of the device. I experienced none of those frustrations. I have quite a bit of experience setting up similar devices such as WiFi-connected garage door openers, doorbells, cameras, and other weather gateways. That experience helped for sure. I also work in information technology and so my technical skills are probably higher than the average person. Regardless of technical skill level, the setup of this device is actually very straightforward as long as you follow the instructions carefully. The key to setting up this device is connecting your computer to the device's internal WiFi access point. That is how you connect your computer (or smart phone) to the device during initial setup. Then you put in the information for your own WiFi so the device can then connect to your network and from there, to the internet. You don't have to set up the wunderground.com and ambientweather.net if you don't want to. But it's easy and kind of fun. So record the MAC address that is shown when you connect to the configuration page of the device, or just look on the back for the sticker that has a number such as "00:AB:12:34:CD:EF" and then head over and register an account and your device there. Then fill out the appropriate fields on the device while you're setting it up. It did take me two tries to get my device connected to my home WiFi. But the entire setup process probably took about 30 minutes. I did run into a little trouble with the sensors. One of them kept coming up as "Er" in the display. I ended up removing the batteries, changing the channel, and reinserting the batteries. (If you change the channel, you have to remove and reinsert the batteries in order to get it to actually change the channel.) After a bit of minor fiddling, the device was able to receive data from both of the sensors and also send data to the two websites. I installed the Ambient Weather app, signed in with my account and now I see the data displayed on my phone as well. I've only had this device up and running since last night, but it's dialed-in and working perfectly. Don't let the negative reviews deter you if you have some technical wherewithal and the ability to follow instructions carefully. You will likely have no serious problems. A word of caution regarding the water-resistant pool temperature probe: Make sure that the o-ring is carefully pressed into the groove in the top part of the casing. It would be a good idea to use some silicone grease as well. The o-ring may pop out of the groove when you open the case to insert the batteries or change the radio channel. Be very careful to ensure that you replace it properly or your device could fill with water and cause damage. Review: The product was more than reliable - Last winter I vacationed in Florida the month of January. When I returned to Wisconsin my hot tub was nearly frozen over. Luckily I was able to get a technician out to replace a circulating pump before any damage was done to the piping. Before going to Florida this year I searched for a wi-fi enabled thermometer that I could access while in Florida. I found very little information on available systems. Comments on the Ambient Weather System did not give me comfort that the signal would penetrate the 5in. cover so I decided to wing it. A week before we were to leave I made a last minute decision to purchase this system and see how it worked. When I set it up, the signal was received by the receiver and I could monitor temperature via the internet. The first week in Florida I logged on and saw the temperature was dropping. I had a neighbor go check on the hot tub and the breaker was tripped and would not reset. The technician came out and replaced a defective heater. A week later the same situation occurred and again I called the technician. Turns out he had jostled the hot tub plug and the water level dropped shutting off the hot tub. Without this product I would have had thousands of dollars in damages and probably would have had to replace the tub. I'm back in Wisconsin in February and everything is a little better when you have a hot tub.

Great when it works, but inconsistent.
I bought it for the API, so that I could automate things based on the temperature. The API is incredibly inconsistent, with a history of days-long outages. I eventually had some luck using the "unofficial" API used by their web UI, which seems to be separate and more reliable. That only works if you set your weather station public, which is obnoxious because I didn't want to do that. Eventually, the outside thermometer stopped working. I've been using the pool thermometer as an outside thermometer. That worked for awhile, but the base station loses it more and more often lately, and I've finally given up. I ultimately just bit the bullet and bought an ESP8266, put micropython on it, and hooked up a set of temperature sensors off Amazon. I had really wanted to avoid rolling my own, hence buying this item. Turns out, it was super easy to wire up my own sensor and hook it up to a free grafana account. Way more reliable and a fraction the cost, and I have a pool and outside sensor. No humidity but I can add a sensor for that if I want to. Now this item is going in the trash.

It works fine, manual could use a major overhaul
Setup is easy if you know how it’s done, the instructions for it... not so much. It could be so much easier for first time users: 1) Insert backup battery in display 2) connect display unit to power 3) Connect with tour phone or a WiFi enabled computer to the new WiFi that’s generated by the base 4) go to http://192.168.0.1 and enter your existing WiFi (2.4ghz) credentials 5) wait for the light in the back to be steady blue 6) open up the batterie compartments of each sensor you have and set the switch of each to a unique channel 7) power up the first sensor, wait for it to be displayed in the main unit, repeat for the second. If no sensor is found, press the scan button on the base. The rest of the steps depend on if you want online functionality, install the app, follow instructions. I set it up in 5-10 minutes. Integration into home assistant was a bit trickier, but this was only due to the instructions being unclear (this time from home assistant). In the end, all works well.

Il a bien fonctionné 2 mois puis a commencé à indiquer mauvaise température. Ils ont remplacé tout le kit au complet et il a cessé lui aussi de fonctionner après 2 mois.
