> 3 dayI gave it that headline because of this. They seem to only last two(2) years, seeing as Ive had to purchase them almost exactly 2 years apart both times. But I love the Display that all the information is sent to, so Ill probably keep doing so.

> 3 dayThe 1st one I had got wet in the rain. After that the performance went down hill quick. This sensor MUST be shielded from wet weather. I have the new one shielded from the wet & the sensor is out of direct sun light, on the side of our deck. But when the sun hits the deck, the sensor read much higher temp then what the temp actually is. Once the sun is not on the deck, the sensor will eventually read a more accurate temp.

13-06-2025I was very happy that we could replace the outside portion of our thermometer which had rusted without buying a new inside unit. It works like new again.

> 3 dayI have an older model AcuRite wireless weather station that communicates with a remote outdoor sensor. The station stopped displaying the O/S temp and humidity. Decided to test whether the sensor or the station was at fault by trying a replacement sensor. The original sensor was the culprit; it stopped working after 10 years but the station is in excellent condition. . To successfully transmit data the sensor and the station must have the same A or B or C band setting. With the new sensor, band C works flawlessly with the station. We are in SoCal so Im confirming that the station does display triple digit temperatures. Please send cold air...

Greater than one weekWorks perfectly but should have priced a new one first. Part cost almost as much as whole unit.

10-06-2025Ive never owned anything AcuRite. I dont even own the weather station you usually need to use with this. What I do own are several Raspberry Pis and an RTL_SDR. Getting this to be read couldnt have been easier. I simply installed rtl_433, and ran it. No commandline arguments required. In just a few seconds, it came back with the product identifier (a unique but static number that lets you distinguish one device from another), the temperature in Celsius, the humidity as a percentage, and the status of the battery (just a boolean value for either OK or not). This device sends out updates approximately every 15 seconds (though this varies by a few seconds each time; this is by design, to avoid packet collisions). The accuracy seems fine to me. When I got it, I stuck it beside our nest thermostat, and the temps were spot on. The humidity did read a few points low though, but I only care about the temps, so that doesnt matter to me that much. So far, Ive just been reading the temps manually, but eventually, I plan to write some scripts, or maybe just connect these to Home Assistant, to set up some alarms for when the garage is about to freeze, or for when the freezers are about to unfreeze. So far, Ive only put one in the garage, but Ive ordered a few more to monitor the fridges and freezers. For the price, you really cant go wrong.

> 3 dayI just ordered my second one of these things... The original and the first replacement each lasted about four years before giving up the ghost...... At $35 the four year lifespan is pretty disappointing... Other than that the item works fine... Edit: In defense of AcuRite, they do mention in the directions that its best to protect the sensor from direct contact with the elements when placing it outdoors... I placed the new sensor under my front steps to give it some protection... Hopefully this will extend the life of the unit...
