Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Timex TX5170 Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer with Indoor Hygrometer and ClockCustomer Review: A terrific instrument Summary: 5 Stars
Those of you interested in obtaining an indoor-outdoor thermometer please consider this Timex instrument. Simply place a wire out the window below your window where it can't be thrown off by leaking of heat or cool. The Timex is accurate, easy to read, easy to reset, and has the indoor humidity as an extra.
I received a wireless weather instrument as a gift. This wireless works if you don't want to place the sensor far enough away from the house to get a good reading--and where no rain can touch it. Pretty hard to place a sensor outdoor completely out of the rain.
Wireless might be good but my experience was not good. Get this Timex instrument and you will be happy.

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.
