Oregon Scientific THN132N Wireless Temperature Sensor - White

I bought this as a replacement for one that came with a weather station given to me as a Christmas present over 5 years ago.The original one still worked but its signal was no longer powerful enough to get through the house from the garden. I tried a number of new batteries but to no avail. The new one worked straight away with the station and sensor in the original locations. When changing batteries or sensor you have to reset both the station and the sensor with their reset buttons for it to work.

Very easy to set connected to original unit and has been working fine for a couple of days.Have noticed a small change in the distance range but not a major problem at the moment.Watch this space.

A perfect accompaniment to the Oregon Scientific BAR206 Weather Station. It "sits" insignificantly on the upright post of the bird table, from where it transmits the information to the weather station. A great piece of kit and a perfect for keeping us up to date of what to expect in terms of weather ! Great !

Does the job okay but seems to have a short lifespan. This is the third sensor I have had in about 7-8 years.

I ordered the Oregon Scientific THN132N Wireless sensor from Templelodge last year - I had a problem with it but Templelodge provided excellent customer service, responded immediately and promptly sent out a replacement even though it was over the busy Christmas period. The product now works perfectly and we are very pleased - excellent service, thank you to Templelodge!!

My previous sensor failed after two and a half years. The new one doesn't provide humidity data just temperature. The one that does have this feature costs considerably more. I opened it up for a look before disposing of. It uses a single chip to provide all its functionality and this is placed on a small pcb with very little else.As these are mass produced in China, a more realistic price would have been around £5. It is possible to buy full weather stations from China directly for around £20 with much more functionality. I would give this one a miss!

Although described as fully compatible with the original base equipment I had purchased a number of years ago, it took a number of attempts of re-setting both the sensor and base equipment following the instructions, for the temperature sensor to begin communicating with the base unit, which proved to be very frustrating. Although following the instructions, when it eventually started to work, I had done nothing differently than the previous attempts. Perhaps a trouble shooting matrix could be included.

After sitting one sensor in a puddle we bought another as a replacement. There is nothing that an eight year old likes more than to monitor the change in temp on a daily basis. We found that the puddle bound one actually dried out and worked fine so we now have one at either end of the garden. Given the range I expect that two is probably one more than actually required but both work well. Probably a bit expensive but given their durability probably worthwhile.
