At a single glance, a terrarium owner can monitor the two most critical environmental variables in reptile health and comfort. Both temperature and relative humidity are displayed on a large digital readout. A built-in calendar and alarm reminds pet owners to check conditions, make feedings or administer medications. The thermometer keeps track of maximum and minimum temperatures in a range from 23°F to 122°F (-5°C to +50°C), the hygrometer reads relative humidities from 30% to 90%. A separate probe for each parameter means more accurate positioning; 57″ long probe wires suit even the largest terrariums. A set of included suction cups and a built in stand for the processing unit make setup easier.

Works great Works better than the analog hygrometer and thermometer I have and half the price of my local pet store… Would have liked to see some suggestions for placing the humidity sensor depending on use, but I’ll just play around with it to determine the best placement to get a good idea of the humidity in my snake tank. Only real complaint is that the suction cup on the temp sensor was so bent that it was unusable at first (it wouldn’t stay stuck).
Only good for dry tanks. So the temp is relatively accurate I would say. But I have hermit crabs, it difficult to find an accurate digital hygrometer when you need to keep humidity above 70%. This meter always read 99% inside the tank, and the minimum always read 0% (WHAT??). Then I’d take it out and it would read the normal humidity of the room (~40%). Guess I’m off to try another one.
Wouldn’t buy it again.. I’ve had this product for over a year now. It worked just okay at first. Now, it constantly resets so it goes to C, which isn’t THAT big of a deal, but it would be nice to be able to switch it to F without it resetting AGAIN and AGAIN. I also feel the humidity gauge is inaccurate, because it never matches, or is even close to, the other one in the enclosure.
