Summary: Wireless Temp Probe Works Great
Comment: I use it to monitor the temp in my swimming pool. It worked right out of the box!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great for a hot tub
Comment: I've had this in my hot tub since I bought it, it's held up well. the display is hard to read at an angle and no back light but that hasn't been an issue for me as I use my house weather station to read it.
1 year later - I've been through a set of batteries, and lately my weather station hasn't been getting a very reliable signal from it. It still picks up my other sensors fine so I'm sure it has something to do with this unit. The unit still shows the correct temp on the display.

Summary: Can't do without it...
Comment: This is a great device for checking your swimming pool or hot tub temperatures without having to go outside. Range is excellent, accuracy is good, battery life is very good, and the price was tolerable.
Since I have two different remote sensors and one receiver, changing the batteries in the device makes you go through set-up procedures that are equivalent to standing on your head, spinning around three times, and clicking your heels; but thankfully the batteries last a long time and this isn't that big of an issue.
***Follow-up on 1/7/08: Although these are fairly accurate and trouble free; they only last about 2 years before failing. I have now ordered my third one of these within the last 5-6 years. The display will give you the letters, "OFL", and the unit fails to operate any more. LaCrosse Technology will not return phone calls or emails regarding technical support questions. Since these things are still kind-of cheap (they go up $1 every couple of years, and I just paid $20 for this one), it is still a decent investment.

Summary: Good overall, wiring a little flimsy
Comment: I bought this sensor along with the WS-9013U from LaCrosse (see that review). I use it to monitor the temperature on my hot tub, I get both the display inside on the weather station (which is awesome) and the LCD display outside at the tub itself. Note, the LCD is not backlit at all, so it's unreadable in the evening. I've had it installed for about 6 months now on the same battery and haven't had to change it yet. It seems fairly accurate and matches the temp. settings on the tub.
My one minor gripe is that the wire the sensor is on is fairly low-gauge and flimsy. I wound several wraps of electrical tape around mine where the filter lid rubs against it. Overall quite satisfied.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent Product
Comment: I use this sensor to monitor the water temp in my in-ground pool. At a glance I can see the temp displayed on my Lacrosse Weather Station.Amazon also provided the best overall price when you factor in the shipping cost which is where other retailers get you.
