AcuRite Wireless Indoor Outdoor Temperature and Humidity Sensor (06002M) , white

Works as well as old sensor

This is an exact replacement for a 17 year old transmitter for an indoor-outdoor thermometer (and other stuff on the inside part...). As such, it worked immediately, albeit not a simple plug-and-play (put in batteries and rehang). On the other hand, it was extremely simple to do the reset of removing the battery from the receiver, and then reset the date, month and time, along with the time zone. It instantly talked to the receiver, and I was finished. It was less expensive at Amazon, and was shipped free under Prime, arriving quickly, so Im very well pleased overall.

This product was a replacement for one that stopped working. We had it for a few years and needed a new one. This one is working great.

Very happy with my replacement, works great!

I took a chance and ordered this as my remotes did not survive the Florida environment. Acurite is not kidding when they state the remote sending unit should not be exposed to rain. This worked for my model 6036. Apparently, the 6024 display is similar so these remote sending units should work for that model as well. Installation went OK. But you will need the manual for the display as the method for recognizing the new sending unit is not intuitive. Search the Internet if you dont have a copy and save the copy! You might consider ordering a spare unit. I am.

Getting replacement sensors can be trying. Just make sure your unit is listed for the sensor you are trying to replace. I did and my unit was listed, and it worked properly as stated. I believe it to be accurate and am well pleased with purchase.

Exactly like the one I replaced. No adjustments needed. Received in a couple of days from Amazon.

old one was blown off pole, and fell in water, couldnt get it to dry off. bought this as replacement, worked with temperature gauge

Ive never owned anything AcuRite. I dont even own the weather station you usually need to use with this. What I do own are several Raspberry Pis and an RTL_SDR. Getting this to be read couldnt have been easier. I simply installed rtl_433, and ran it. No commandline arguments required. In just a few seconds, it came back with the product identifier (a unique but static number that lets you distinguish one device from another), the temperature in Celsius, the humidity as a percentage, and the status of the battery (just a boolean value for either OK or not). This device sends out updates approximately every 15 seconds (though this varies by a few seconds each time; this is by design, to avoid packet collisions). The accuracy seems fine to me. When I got it, I stuck it beside our nest thermostat, and the temps were spot on. The humidity did read a few points low though, but I only care about the temps, so that doesnt matter to me that much. So far, Ive just been reading the temps manually, but eventually, I plan to write some scripts, or maybe just connect these to Home Assistant, to set up some alarms for when the garage is about to freeze, or for when the freezers are about to unfreeze. So far, Ive only put one in the garage, but Ive ordered a few more to monitor the fridges and freezers. For the price, you really cant go wrong.

I gave it that headline because of this. They seem to only last two(2) years, seeing as Ive had to purchase them almost exactly 2 years apart both times. But I love the Display that all the information is sent to, so Ill probably keep doing so.
