Wireless Remote Thermometer



Wireless Remote Thermometer
Wireless Remote Thermometer for Caravans, RVs and Camping
Want to know how hot it is outside without stepping out of the van? This wireless remote thermometer has a battery-powered sensor that sends its temperature back to a display unit by radio. No cables to run through walls or windows. The display shows the remote sensor's reading and the temperature where the display sits, side by side.
Where You Can Use It
Outside the van: Check the outside temperature from your seat.
In the annex: See how warm or cold it is out there before the kids head out to bed.
Inside vs outside: Compare the two at a glance and decide whether it's time for the air con or an extra blanket.
At home: Works just as well in the house, shed or garage when you're not on the road.
How It Works
Remote sensor: Put it wherever you want to measure. It sends readings to the display on 433.92 MHz.
Display unit: Shows the remote reading and its own built-in reading on the one screen.
Battery powered: Both units run on AAA batteries, so there's nothing to wire into your 12V system.
About the IN and OUT Labels
This is an indoor/outdoor thermometer, so the display labels the remote sensor reading "OUT" and its own built-in reading "IN". That's just the labelling. It doesn't change how the thermometer works.
Using the Remote Sensor in a Fridge
Fridges, especially 3-way caravan fridges, are full of moisture and condensation, and the remote sensor isn't built for that. If you do put it in a fridge, seal it in a small clip-seal bag first. Seal the bag somewhere dry, not in a humid van, so you're not trapping moisture in with it. The sensor will last a lot longer, and the temperature still reads normally. It just reacts a little slower to changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to run any wires?
No. The sensor talks to the display by radio, and both run on AAA batteries.
Why does the display say IN and OUT?
It's an indoor/outdoor thermometer. "OUT" is the remote sensor and "IN" is the sensor built into the display.
Where should I put the sensor outside?
Somewhere shaded and out of the rain, like under the awning or on the shady side of the van. A sensor sitting in direct sun will read well above the real air temperature.
Can I use it to check my caravan fridge?
You can, but seal the sensor in a clip-seal bag first. Fridges are full of condensation, and moisture will shorten its life.
Why does it read differently to my other thermometer?
Every thermometer has a tolerance, so two can read a little apart and both be working fine. Place them side by side and give them time to settle before you compare.
