Customer Review: We really enjoy tracking the changes
Summary: 5 Stars
We didn't have any problems with istallation or communication. I hung the remote on the outside wall, immediately under the roof overhang, so that it would not get wet or receive direct sunlight. The display is in the kitchen, about 20' from the remote, across a brick wall with a window in it.
I find it very interesting that even with all our windows open, the house temperature track far behind the outside temperature. I also like having a second indoor temp reading in addition to (and far away from) our thermostat reading. I use this thermometer to decide exactly when to shut the windows and turn on the AC because it's just too hot outside.

Description of Timex TX6130 Wireless Three-Window Indoor/Outdoor Electronic Thermometer with Hygrometer
TIMEX WIRELESS Electronic Indoor Outdoor Thermometer with Hygrometer and Alarm Clock. Three LCD display windows feature inside temperature, outdoor temperature and shared clock and hygrometer data. The outdoor sensor transmit temperature data up to 100 feet. New clean contemporary styling with easy-to-use set buttons. Outdoor sensor has Red LED light that signals constant transmission of temperature data. Temperature range for indoors is 32 degrees to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. The outdoor temperature range is 14 degrees to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Case and sensor molded in bright white.They say it's not the heat, but the humidity. Well fret not, because the versatile Timex TX6130 wireless electronic thermometer displays both at the same time. The compact unit--which sits unobtrusively on a desktop, table, or shelf--sports a trio of LCD windows with bold, conspicuous readouts. The top window displays the indoor temperature, the middle window displays your choice of the indoor relative humidity or time, and the bottom window shows the outdoor temperature. As a result, you can instantly gauge whether to wear shorts or pants on a seemingly mild summer day, make sure the humidity level is correct in the greenhouse, or crank the air conditioner as the afternoon progresses. The temperature readings range from 32 to 122 degrees F (0 to 50 degrees C) for the indoor temperature to 14 to 122 degrees F (-10 to 50 degrees C) for the outdoor temperature. The relative humidity, meanwhile, is measured on a scale of 20 to 90 percent, with the hygrometer performing best between 40 and 70 percent.
The TX6130 is remarkably easy to read--even from across the room--thanks to the pronounced digits, which measure 0.62 inches tall. Even better, the system comes with a wireless remote sensor/transmitter that measures the outdoor temperature from up to 100 feet away. The extended range of the wireless transmitter lets you place the main station virtually anywhere without losing the remote signal. Both the main station and the transmitter come with integral fold-out table stands for shelf or desk placement, along with built-in keyhole slots for wall mounting. Note, however, that the remote sensor should not be exposed to direct sunlight and must be protected from rain, snow, and wind.
The TX6130 also features a minimum/maximum memory function that records the high and low temperatures and humidity levels of the day. The values are available at the push of a button, with a second button clearing and resetting the memory on command. And gardeners will love the unit's Freeze Alert function, which sounds an audible five-second beep every minute and flashes a "Freeze" icon once the temperature falls into the freezing zone of 37.4 to 30.2 degrees F (3 to -1 degrees C). The alert gives you plenty of time to move sensitive plants indoors or protect the roots of larger plants outdoors. Users can also mute the beep or turn the alert off completely.
The TX6130's built-in clock is no slouch, either, with settings for 12-hour (with AM and PM) and 24-hour modes along with an alarm and a five-minute snooze button. Add in a snazzy white housing, an iPod-like control panel, and a red LED on the transmitter and you have an attractive, highly functional thermometer that's ideal for kitchens, greenhouses, saunas, and a host of other locations. Power requirements include three AAA batteries for the main unit and three more AAA batteries for the transmitter (not included), with alkaline batteries recommended in most cases.
The TX6130's main station measures 2.06 by 6.94 by 0.94 inches (W x H x D) without the stand, while the remote sensor checks in at 3.06 inches in diameter and 1.06 inches deep. The entire bundle is backed by a one-year factory warranty.
