LaCrosse Wireless Temperature Station

Occasionally my wife enjoys to write reviews of products she uses - this is one of those posts. Enjoy!

LaCrosse Wireless Temperature StationI will admit it, I am a giant weather nerd.  I have to watch the weather reports every newscast, even if I just saw it an hour before.  And since spring weather is so volatile, I need something to let me know what the temperature is without being glued to the TV.  Basically, I need to know if I should blow dry my hair in the morning.

We set up the LaCrosse Wireless Temperature Station in our office.  The outdoor sensor is on our covered (away from rain and sun) patio, about 10 feet from the base.  As long as the instructions are followed carefully, there should not be a problem setting the device up.  I can pop in to check the outdoor temperature before I get in the shower.  It is also great for deciding if I need to rush my morning routine because I will need to scrape the frost off my car.  It may not be bang-on accurate, but as long as you are not operating an official weather station, you can get a good idea of outdoor temperature.  If you plan on using the outdoor sensor year round and live in a cold climate, try using lithium ion batteries – they work better in the cold.
