AcuRite Wireless Indoor Outdoor Temperature and Humidity Sensor (06002M) , white

it works.

Our old sensor stopped working and I needed a new sensor. It works perfectly and is accurate. I love that I am able to purchase just the sensor and not have to buy a whole new display.

We needed a new sensor/remote for our AcuRite weather station (old one had finally broke). Put in the batteries, made sure it was set on the same channel as the station, and voila! We have a weather station that’s working again. Much cheaper than buying a brand new station, and I was concerned if this new sensor would work correctly. This new sensor has both temp & humidity readings on it, but the old one didn’t have either of those. Still worked just fine with the older station.

I put the batteries in and through the switch. It loaded quickly with the currant temperature. It works Great!

Work well, long battery life

I first bought the set of indoor & outdoor units about 7 years ago. The outdoor unit finally corroded enough that it wasnt usable. This replacement worked for me as soon as I put batteries in it. Glad to have the outside info available to me again.

I took a chance and ordered this as my remotes did not survive the Florida environment. Acurite is not kidding when they state the remote sending unit should not be exposed to rain. This worked for my model 6036. Apparently, the 6024 display is similar so these remote sending units should work for that model as well. Installation went OK. But you will need the manual for the display as the method for recognizing the new sending unit is not intuitive. Search the Internet if you dont have a copy and save the copy! You might consider ordering a spare unit. I am.

Replacing batteries requires a genius because the system rarely ever works without the assistance of a genius with a PhD in Electrical Engineering. But once it operates its greats but must be protected from rain and moisture.

The unit works fine, but be aware that the directions that came with the master unit are very weak on how to set it up. I added this to the 5-in1 Acurite weather station with Lightning Detector. According to the directions that came with the main unit, you can set up the readout to cycle through all of your remote outdoor probes (in addition to the main outdoor temp readout). Lets say you have three additional outdoor probes (like, I have one in my greenhouse, and one in the chicken coop). And by the way, the Lightning Detector also will send a temperature reading, so that counts as an additional remote temp reading if desired. So anyway, you can set your main unit up to cycle so that it reads the remotes one after another. It will show A, B, and Cs temp, one after the other. Great, but no way will you get this using the instructions with the main unit! Even the tech at Acurite said he had noticed that issue with his at home. I forget all the details, but if I have to do it again, Ill take notes and update here. Its a lot of pushing Options and Select, but not quite the way the directions say. The good news is their tech service is very good on the phone. (Sorry I cant post the details of how to do it, but I dont dare messing with it now that its working ok!)

old one was blown off pole, and fell in water, couldnt get it to dry off. bought this as replacement, worked with temperature gauge
