The moment I received this ThermoPro TP53 Hygrometer / Thermometer and opened it, I was very happy I'd chose to buy *this* unit - rather than the dozens of others i could have chosen to purchase. First words in my mind were, "Now THAT'S what I'm TALKING ABOUT!" Fashion is not my goal in any way. My needs are strictly utilitarian, but for those looking also for "Simply Understated," I think perhaps you would also find this unit a wise choice. - The packaging is very minimal and well thought out. Great 1st impression - The instructions are clear and concise - Build quality, including fit and finish is PROPER, meaning the design of the molds is excellent - features such as the little kick-stand and battery compartment cover and latch work VERY well and are accurate and concise in their function. I will note, however, that when a feature such as the little "Kick-stand" (that allows the unit to be free-standing) are very small and there-fore, far more delicate and prone to breakage if dropped on a hard surface while extended. When retracted however, the hinge assembly is VERY well protected. - The material quality of the plastic seems excellent. It is quite hard, though it's quality will only be known as time passes. I will comment if it starts degrading as, poor plastics tend to show themselves rather quickly, even if they look and perform well at first. - The display is LARGE - and *very* nicely laid out! SUPER-EASY TO READ. If you have difficulty with vision, this MAY be good, though there are so many varying degrees of sightedness, (and therefore, lack thereof as well) YMMV - The backlight is pleasing to my eye as well, and I would describe it as "Neither harsh on the eye, nor so dim I still have to struggle to see the entire display clearly." In other words - I think it's just right - 100% of the way. Now, I can't actually rate - "accuracy" - ACCURATELY - (what with me not having any lab-certified whirligigs with superconductive something-or-others), but I took it into the bathroom after a hot shower - took it out on the porch and compared with local reports nearby, and stuff like that - and it seems pretty spot-on to me! Woo-Hoo! :) I also really can't comment on battery life in any meaningful way, because I just got it a few days ago. Besides, battery life may also be a bit subjective to factors such as A.) average temperature where it is used, and B.) How often and how long the light is on. I will update if battery life proves to be a big problem, but I'm pretty confident it'll be fine. I hope so, because honestly, i really do like everything else about this purchase. WELL DONE ThermoPro! Read more
I have a hyper-fixation with temperature. We replaced our HVAC unit a little bit over a year ago and since then I’m constantly wondering what’s the temperature in the different areas of the house. I purchased a temp gun but it was not enough— I needed to see the numbers real live, quickly. I first ordered the black model (pic 3) and placed it in the kitchen about 5 months ago, but because our house is so big, I decided to order a couple of more. One for the kids passageway (pic 1) and one for our room (pic 2). These I just installed and they are pretty accurate for 20min in service. Last pic is our thermostat, set at 72. I’m overall happy with these gadgets; they definitely meet the mark and keep my hyper fixation in check. Would recommend. Read more

I was camping this past week in the rocky mountains and thought that I really wanted to write a review about this product I have owned the thermopro hydrometer for about 2.5 years now to use in my RV. I stuck it to the wall by the bed so I can see the temperature and humidity at night/morning. It has seen temps down to -8 and highs up to 89. It is one of the most reliable items in my RV currently that takes batteries. I have never changed the batteries in it but yet it still works no matter the temperature. I don't trust he humidity reading on it at all though. It swings all over the place in a matter of minutes and I have no idea why or how it pulls its reading. The light on I is awesome too for reading it when there isn't any light. Read more
I love this temperature -humidity monitor. It’s so easy to use right out of the box, just install the enclosed batteries, (except, I was trying to open the kickstand, thought that was battery compartment, no it’s under the magnet, that’s the battery opening). I like that it’s portable and move it where you want to monitor a room It is fairly accurate, when I check it against my house thermostat . I like that it tells you if it’s dry or wet humidity. I like the option to see a 24 hr span or all time span I like the button for backlighting. I do wish though, it had an auto light sensor, so when it gets dark, the backlight would come in automatically . Other than that it’s a pretty nice indoor thermometer. Read more
So far so good. Using for two upstairs bedrooms to monitor temperature & save on heating bill. Using one in crawl space to monitor the humidity. Read more
This Item is pretty accurate by my observations. I have 2 other sensors nearby and this one generally reads the same as the other 2 indicating to me it's probably within 1 degree of accuracy. The 24 hr. High and Low readings are very helpful for tracking Temp and Humidity in my usually unheated garage. The magnet on the back is pretty strong and allows me to place it in any area where there is metal in addition to placing it on a shelf using the attached folding stand. Good Value, well constructed. The touch to light it up makes it easy to read wherever you put it and in the dark. Read more
Great product for the price. Read more
