    I am once again in the market for a wireless greenhouse thermometer. Over the past 15 years I have had 2 and the latest one seems to have crashed. There are now hundreds of options out there on the market. So, does anyone have one that they can recommend?

    Basically all I need is :
    - remote temperature,
    - remote humidity
    - ability to record highs and lows (preferably displayed without pushing buttons)
    - 200 foot + wireless distance
    - waterproof sensor
    - an actual display vs. bluetooth to my phone

    Thanks in advance for recommendations.

    Take a look at sensorpush.com. I have used a sensor for a couple of years now (non orchid related), and am very pleased with it, but I do access it from my phone. With the wifi gateway, you can look at the data on a computer screen...

    Hi Kelly... I have been using La Crosse Technology weather Station for years and love it.... Gary Meyers turned me on to it... I now use 6 different stations that I can see temp and humidity, highs and lows, plus can set alarms for high/low temp or humidity on my phone... I use them in 2 of my Dart Frog vivariums, 3 different orchid growing areas and general house temperature... I told Bob Hamilton about this product and he loves it... Uses wifi and one of his greenhouses is 30 miles away!

    Thanks Dexter. This is one of the ones I've been looking at.
