AcuRite Humidity Meter Hygrometer and Indoor Digital Thermometer with Temperature Gauge and Humidity Gauge, Room Thermometer Comfort Scale, 3 x 2.5 Inches, White (01083M)

I recently purchased the AcuRite Pro Humidity Meter & Thermometer with Touch Activated Backlight, and it has been a very satisfying addition to our RV. The device is user-friendly, with a straightforward interface that makes it easy to read and understand the current temperature and humidity levels.One of the standout features for me is the different mounting options. This flexibility is particularly useful in an RV setting, where space is at a premium and you need devices that can adapt to different spaces. The AcuRite Pro fits this need perfectly.In terms of accuracy, this device is spot on. I've compared its readings with other measuring devices I own, and it consistently delivers accurate results. There are no discrepancies or issues in its performance, which gives me confidence in the data it provides.Another aspect I appreciate is the quick visual readout. The display is clear and easy to read at a glance, which is convenient when you're busy and just need a quick check. Additionally, the size of the unit is just right – it's compact enough not to be obtrusive in our RV, yet large enough to easily read the display.Overall, the AcuRite Pro Humidity Meter & Thermometer is a reliable and handy tool for anyone needing to keep track of environmental conditions, especially in smaller living spaces like an RV. Its ease of use, accuracy, and compact size make it an excellent choice.

I just received this unit and so far I really like it because it's very easy to operate and read AND it records the highest and lowest temps for the past 24 hours... it shows "trending" changes, too... which is one of the main reasons I got it... the humidity has been just awful here in central Florida this summer and I wanted to see trending humidity as much as I wanted to know the temperature... I also like that there is a color-coded bar that has an indicator arrow showing what range the current humidity falls into, "low, ok, or high"... it's a great little unit and I'm going to get a couple more, I think, to keep permanently in several locations... for inside the house where the air-conditioner is, and for the carport and garage where I have a lot of stored memorabilia and tools and also for the chicken coop... The only drawback to this unit that I can see is that if you move it from one location to another and there is a big difference in temperature, it takes awhile for the box itself to cool down or warm up to the new ambient temperature before it can start reading the new temperature correctly. When I took it out of the mailbox, the ambient outside air temperature was 95 degrees (in the SHADE)... so the temperature inside the hot, metal mailbox was probably about 110 degrees, the package was actually warm in my hands when I picked it up... I took it inside to an air-conditioned room that was 76 degrees... and when I immediately opened it and popped in the batteries, it read out 103 degrees even though the actual temperature where I turned it on was 76 degrees. It eventually read the correct room temperature and kept up with the changes okay... but later, when I took it out to the carport, the same thing happened in reverse... it was still reading in the 70's, even though the air temperature was in the 90's out there at mid-day... (I have a baby video monitor in the chicken coop that reads new temperatures immediately whenever, and wherever, it is moved.) I think this "lag time" is a drawback if you plan on moving it to different locations during the day as I had initially planned to do... The humidity meter seems to change much more quickly. All this being said, I LIKE the unit... Another really great perk is that it has magnets on the back (in addition to screw slots for wall mounting) that are very strong and the unit grabs on instantly and securely to anything metal, so it's VERY easy to put it and then take it down again almost anywhere that you want to monitor the temperature and humidity. It clicks right onto file cabinets, metal carport posts, lamp posts, cage wire, the metal baskets around fans, etc. The "24-hour log" can be easily reset to start over again immediately, too. I haven't even had this 24 hours, but so far... I am VERY happy with it... I only wish it would adjust faster when moved, but maybe it's really designed to stay basically in one location. It would also be nice if it lit up in the dark, too! The information booklet is VERY well done, it's simple and clear and easy to read with nice-sized bold print... it lists the website and support information (www.AcuRite.com) I just went to the website and it is chock-full of ALL KINDS of sensor equipment for temperature, humidity and weather stations, etc. GREAT STUFF! I think before I order more of these units, I'll check out their other products first... since I live in hurricane country, their weather stations looked pretty interesting... and they also have lightning sensors, too!

First off, this is initial review: I will update if things change in the future.I'm actually quite happy with this product. I'm knocking one star off because it doesn't have a little stand to put it on. That has not been a problem for me as the table I have it on is very sturdy and does not wobble so it works fine. I do not seem to have the level of problems reading the meter as I have seen in other reviews. I mean really, it's your basic LCD. I can view mine from probably a 40 degree angle but not much more without really straining. But again, where I haven't it's not a problem. A couple of life hacks for you: while the unit does take a while to adjust to temperature, all I did was lean it up against a cold soda can. It did take a while, but eventually the temperature went down in about probably 40 minutes to a fairly accurate degree. What I did find, is that if you leave the cover off for the batteries it will adjust a lot quicker. I really could give a crap about the battery cover so for me it's not a big deal. As far as the stand or lack thereof I should say, I did another little life hack. Since this does not weigh much at all, all I did was take a little quick of cardboard off of a snack box, like triscuits, and cut it off a little less wide than the unit itself. Then I bent the cardboard about in half. I then took a little piece of clear Scotch tape from the lower bezel of the unit just below the screen. Bingo! Instant cheap stand. I know that this is not optimal, but you can't see it as far as the stand, behind the unit, so who cares? Not me. I actually had a little bit of fun setting these up. The humidity gauge is pretty accurate right away, but the temperature does take a while to adjust and is accurate from 1 to 2° which is fine with me. If I wanted a higher end unit I would have bought one. This concludes my review.
