## Description

AcuRite 00888A3 Indoor/Outdoor Digital Thermometer

Review: Be sure to have most of the cord outside. - Nice thermometer. Works well if used properly. The wire attached to the unit needs as much of it as possible outside in order to registerr properly. It is best to have the thermometer sitting on the inside window sill and most of the wire with the temperature probe outside. If too much wire is inside, the temperature will register higher or lower than it actually is, dependington on the seasons.. Set the unit to F for the American unit of measure. It register outside temperature, and with e a push of a button inside too. Good value for a durable device. We had one for years until a storm ripped the siding off the house and cut the cord. This purchase is a replacement.
Review: DIY AcuRite home digital thermometer converted for car use - Although advertised and marketed for home use, I re-engineered this as an inside-outside car thermometer. The installation didn't require cutting into the dash, or a funky looking 12v cigarette lighter hook-up (although, one can tap into the fuse-box). The readout size is good for old eyes. How to mount? Some of the others use velcro, so I stuck two small strips on the back, leaving it clear for the AAA battery changes. You should also leave a few extra inches of wire play for battery changes, too. Anyways, voila with the velcro stick. No, it's not uber-solid, but under normal street driving conditions it's not going to fall off the dash. I also lengthened the wire for the outside temp sensor (another 15" to reach an area in front of the radiator--add more if you want the option of experimenting with the sensor location). It's very fine strand wire, so be careful in stripping the insulation off. (I'd have to guess at the gauge.) Twist and solder wires for best connection, insulate with shrink tube and then seal with silicon or silicon grease. (You can figure this out, right?) Installation time was roughly an hour, because I'm old and particular about things. Add another hour for the soldering and relocating of the outside sensor (for the same reason). I'm sure others could whip through this job more quickly. [Note: Handle the sensor with care. Enough said.] This may sound like a lot of work, but again, nothing compared to cutting out your dashboard and leaving a gaping hole if you're not happy with it. Sensor reading for inside the car and outside is great. Accuracy of the two sensors was tested inside the house and both were within a .1-.2* of each other. Close enough for me. Although brand B*ll was smaller, and almost the same price depending on the unit, I'm happier with my AcuRite conversion. This thermometer design may not work for every car interior, but it looks great on my wife's gray dashboard (2004 Ford Focus). It's rounded on the edges and goes well with the vent shapes. I don't expect it to last forever, but if I get a few years out of it, good enough for $12.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is it's physical size?**
A: hello, is around 10cmx5cmx1,5cm is very reliable product

**Q: what type batteries does it run on?**
A: 1- AAA Battery

**Q: Can I mount this on a wall? and can it be used solely for indoor temperature?**
A: If you wanted to mount it on a wall, there are no brackets for using screws, however you could mount it with the 3M double sided sticky tape that they use for these hooks: http://www.amazon.com/Command-Medium-Hooks-White-6-Hook/dp/B000FSORW4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1417786353&sr=8-1&keywords=3m+hooks. Also yes, this can be used for solely indoor measurements.

**Q: Does this thermometer hold the high/low memory until reset?**
A: It keeps high and low values for both inside and outside until you clear them.  Each one of the four values can be reset independently.  It holds the values until they are reset or you change the batteries or a new max or min occurs.  Unfortunately there is no time function so you do not know when the max or min happened.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I keep buying them
*by S***P on June 28, 2010*

I was disappointed. The probes for indoor/outdoor thermometers I'd bought in the past were in waterproof capsules about 5mm in diameter. This one had its probe in a rubber case 10mm wide, designed to be nailed to a surface. The extra mass would mean a slower response. The width would require a bigger hole in the wall. Fastening it to a surface (instead of using a standoff as supplied with other thermometers) would mean it wasn't reliably measuring the air temperature. Worse, the rubber case wasn't watertight. Moisture can raise the reading of a digital probe several degrees. I removed the case and coated the sensor with epoxy cement. Both the indoor and outdoor readings were about a degree high from freezing to body temperature. That's closer than some thermometers. I put the outdoor probe a couple of feet below the eaves. In three years, I've had moisture trouble only once. On a rainy day with lots of blowing mist, it read 4 degrees high. When it dried, it returned to normal. Some digital thermometers become very inaccurate. After 3 years, this one still reads a degree high, inside and out, and it's still on the original battery. I was pleased enough to buy another. The new one is correct within a degree, inside or out. I'll try some shoe-repair glue to see if it gives me a better seal than epoxy. Update: For years, I've used my second AcuRite primarily to monitor the output temperatures of my central heating/AC. It sits on a table with the probe in a vent. My first AcuRite had been in service seven years as my indoor/outdoor thermometer when it began reading about 4 degrees high, both indoors and out. I looked at what Amazon had. I considered getting a dual-display model, but in this application it could be confusing. I bought a third AcuRite 0088A3. When it arrived, I put the thermometer and probe on the table beside the AcuRite I use to monitor HVAC temperature. I gave it time to settle at room temperature. When I checked, the indoor/outdoor readings of the new one were the same, to a tenth of a degree. They were also the same, to a tenth of a degree, as the AcuRite that had been on the table. It looks as if AcuRite has great quality control. After replacing the old indoor/outdoor thermometer, I took it apart and cleaned it with contact cleaner. Now the readings are about a degree high, as when it was new, seven years ago. I guess a microscopic film had accumulated on the circuit board. I guess that could happen with any brand.
