frustrating design, April 6, 2002
This review is from: Dr. Friedrichs Gruppe 696000 Wireless Thermometer (Lawn & Patio)
Neat idea, but frustrating design. When freeze alarm beeps you must press a certain button to stop it. When it sounds in middle of night it is difficult to find that specific button. Be nice if it had a "silent" mode. If you do press the wrong button, you have reset it--which is not a simple button click. You have to unscrew the back and reset the transmitter unit as well. Not worth it.

I only today received this item so I have no long term experience to report. However, the description refers to the capability to use 3 transmitters but neither the data furnished with my purchase nor anything I have been able to locate gives me enough information to allow me to purchase another transmitter.

Infernal Beeping, June 24, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Dr. Friedrichs Gruppe 696000 Wireless Thermometer (Lawn & Patio)
If you live in a tropical climate than you are ok, but if you live where the temperature dropps below 40'F don't buy this product. The ice warning is a infernal high pitched beeping which sets off the glass break alarms on my security system. There is no stopping the beep. It is a "built in feature". You have to "destroy" the speeker to get it to stop. Don't get this product. I would suggest the other version that doesn't beep. Other than this it is a pretty accurate (sometimes off a little) but other than that it works well.
