5.0 out of 5 stars Accurate!, May 29, 2008

By	seller3578 - See all my reviews

I was most interested in the humidity measurement. I conducted a calibration with a sling psychrometer. A sling psychrometer measures wet bulb/dry bulb temperature and is the least expensive (albeit a bit tedious to use) and most accurate way to determine relative humidity (RH).

I needed to know relative humidity for curiosity indoors and for a chamber in my basement used to dry cure sausage (I needed a 70%RH environment). The Honeywell unit was spot on with the sling psychrometer (and temp. was accurate as well).

The unit is new; I need to check it over time for accuracy. However, it's running very well so far and the price is right. I'll be buying more remote sensors [...] I found the remote sensor part no. is TS33C, can find them on Amazon with that search).

The majority of complaints say the humidity is "off." However, I didn't see a single valid calibration conducted.

Update 01-March-2009
I just took the main unit, the sensor and sling psychrometer. The conditions in my home at time of testing were 68F and 30% relative humidity.

Main unit read 68.4F/30% RH
The Sensor: 68.0F/30% RH
Sling Psychrometer: 68F/31% RH

The sling psychrometer consists of two sealed thermometers and will never need a calibration, it is an accurate standard. This Honeywell Unit is pretty darn good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works as advertised, January 10, 2007

By	Riverside (Oregon) - See all my reviews

This thermometer/hygrometer has a large, easy to read display. I bought this primarily for the hygrometer and it's proven to be sensitive and accurate, both indoors and out. The product comes with a wireless outdoor (or other location) sensor that is easy to set up. You can add two additional sensors (not included). Although it's designed to sit on a table or shelf, it can also be hung on the wall. This might affect the hygrometer's sensitivity since the sensors are on the back. Haven't tried the wall mount.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great thermo-Hygrometer at great price, January 12, 2007

By	Philip Lam (California USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

Works well except for slight differences in temperature and humidity between base and remote unit. Remote sender is being used for reporting conditions in my greenhouse. It serves that purpose very well.

It is a real bargain also.
