I bought this thermometer to record the room temperature during winter as my landlord often violates the regulations by cutting down heating. Unfortunately, it seems to show the temperatures, both indoor and outdoor, at least several degrees above the actual. When I was feeling chilly inside the room while wearing a long-sleeve inner and a heavy sweatshirt, it showed 66F inside and 58F outside. I checked the weather channel and saw the local temperature at 48F. So I changed the location of the sensor a little further from the window, but the reading did not change much. Strange that all the comments gave this product 5 stars and mine does not work as nicely as theirs.

This seems to work (numbers are about what I expected) though I have not calibrated it to anything else. While the screen is large and the numbers clear, readability is poor in many light situations. Set up is easy and only 1 AAA battery required. It would be perfect if it could be read in all light situations.
