Oregon Scientific THGR268 Remote Temperature Sensor Review

Oregon Scientific THGR268 Remote Temperature Sensor
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This thermometer is a wireless device with fairly accurate temperature readings, so long as you keep it in the shade and out of the rain. It features the ability to change between degrees C and degrees F, independent of the base unit.
I have 3 of these, one outside and two inside. My only complaint is that humidity sensor on the outside device has failed, because some insects got into it and nested on the sensor. Now this device is merely a thermometer with inaccurate humidity, so I must buy a new one. Another factor, true of any battery powered outdoor device, is that the alkaline batteries freeze about 0 degrees F, making the device inoperable. The solution to this problem is easy: insert AA LITHIUM batteries. They will be good to about -30F.

Heath Outdoor Products 15 Foot Telescoping Galvanized Steel Purple Martin House Pole Review

Heath Outdoor Products 15 Foot Telescoping Galvanized Steel Purple Martin House Pole

I bought this pole and installed it for my Purple Martin house. Martin houses are heavy (even heavier with birds and nests in them) and probably require the strength of steel rather than wood or PVC. Installation requires digging a 12 " hole, 30" to 36" deep, a bag of cement and some gravel. Of course, this means you must have the tools necessary for digging and mixing the cement (Post hole digger, mixing pan, hoe, and a shovel) and the permission of the property owner.
