Product review (5 stars): Better product than the popular La Crosse model!
I used the LaCrosse thermometer for several years until the wireless sending unit died recently. Here are five reasons I like this AcuRite model better and recommend it:
1) Larger digits for outdoor temp (so it's not at all confusing to remember which temperature is indoor and which is outdoor)
2) Humidity is included (which is an added bonus)
3) There is NO clock -- which is actually a benefit, because I could never figure out how to set the clock on the LaCrosse model and so it would always display the wrong time (which to me, is irritating).
4) There is a battery meter to let you know when the battery is getting low
5) There is an indicator to let you know if the outdoor sending unit is getting a good wireless signal
