Product Description
Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer With Indoor Hygrometer and Clock. Records Minimum/Maximum Indoor/Outdoor Temperatures. Records Minimum/Maximum Indoor Hygrometer Data. Fahrenheit-Celsius Selectable.

Amazon.com Product Description
They say it's not the heat, but the humidity. Well fret not, because the versatile Timex TX5170 electronic thermometer displays both at the same time. The compact unit--which sits unobtrusively on a desktop, table, or shelf--sports a three-line LCD panel with bold, conspicuous readouts. The top line displays the indoor temperature, the middle line displays the outdoor temperature, and the bottom line shows either the indoor relative humidity or the time, depending in your preference. 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 -4 to 158 degrees F (-20 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 display is remarkably easy to read--even from across the room--thanks to the bold digits and crisp readout. At the same time, the TX5170 includes an integral minimum/maximum memory function that records the high and low temperatures of the day. The values are available at the push of a button, with a second button clearing and resetting the memory on command. Best of all, the unit is notably compact at 2.88 by 5.44 by 0.81 inches (W x H x D), making it a great choice for home offices, backyard greenhouses, and everywhere in between.

The TX5170 comes with a wired, weather-resistant temperature probe (with a 10-foot cord) for gauging the outdoor temperature, along with an integral folding stand. Because of the wired probe, the main unit will need to located near a window to enjoy the outdoor temperature functions. And should you want to mount the unit on a wall rather than place it on a shelf or desk, simply suspend it from its rear hanger hole (you'll need to provide the nail or screw). As a final bonus, the TX5170 is streamlined and attractive, with a sleek white plastic housing and a snazzy seven-button control panel on the front.

The TX5170 requires a single AAA battery (not included) and is backed by a one-year warranty.

5 out of 5 stars Quality Timex Thermometer/Hygrometer/Clock   May 29, 2007

Easy to set up - needs one AAA battery. Compact unit, yet has nice, large digital display showing humidity, outside temperature and either indoor temperature or clock (a button allows you to select which one will display). The unit seems very accurate and I consult the readings several times a day. I would definitely purchase this product again.


5 out of 5 stars Works well to monitor a home built incubator.   October 17, 2007

The large display and the ability to see inside/outside/humidity without touching a button makes this a perfect device for monitoring a incubator. I have run one clutch on chicks so far and am happy with the product.

The ones with the electronic remotes can be hard to sink up. Distance and obstacles become a huge issue. I love the wired feature of this thermometer. This one works perfectly and is never down for any reason, unless the battery dies. I've tried many and this one does a great job.

Works great, easy to read and accurate. We started making our own wine and have our setup in a spare closet to cut down on light. I have the thermometer mounted on the wall right outside the door for room temp, and have the probe sitting inside the closet down by the wine bucket to get inside temp. Works good!
