Customer Review: An excellent product that will help you save energy, and your electric bill
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought 2 sets of this product, so I have two base stations and two remote sensors. I put them all side by side, along with two other older Bionaire units that may be the predecessor of the model, because the design look the same as the base station. All 6 units show temperature within a 1 degree F. The Honeywell units read higher humidity than the Bionaire, by about 5%, which is very good, and that's really all one would ever need for home use. Older analog humidity sensors are highly untrustworthy in my experience.
The reason I bought 2 sets is because I wanted two remote sensors, one in my screened porch for outdoor conditions and one for the basement. I only need 1 base station, but the cost of the set is almost the same as the remote sensor, so it makes sense to buy 2 sets. each base station will read up to 3 sensors, but they would be the same 3. So in my case, both base stations monitor the basement and the outdoor conditions.
A lot of people run a dehumidifier in the basement, which is really like running an air conditioner without venting the heat and moisture outdoor, so it can get the basement quite warm. In the summer, even when the main floor is not so warm, i would run the AC. The cooler dry air naturally goes down to the basement if I leave the door open. This cuts down the use of the dehumidifier a lot. They use about the same amount of power (500W or so). The AC vents the heat and moisture outdoor, keep the house more comfortable, so it's a better use of the same electric power.
On a hot day, when the sun goes down, the outside temperature cools off and one is tempted to turn off the AC and open the windows. However, quite often the outdoor humidity gets high at the same time, because the air holds a lot more moisture when it's hot. So the air cools off the relative humidity may become very high. Opening the windows would save energy on the AC, but it would immediately raise the humidity in the basement and cause the dehumidifier to run, consuming the same power saved by the AC. Only when the outside air is both cool and dry, I would open the windows. Having this Honeywell system lets me make this kind of decisions that I couldn't otherwise make. It minimizes the use of the dehumidifier in the basement and keeps the house more comfortable in the summer. In the winter, the air is dry indoor and outdoor, I don't really need an outdoor sensor. It's better to keep the extra sensor inside so that the battery won't die.
