Oregon Scientific Remote Weather Stations

For all tropical plant enthusiasts keeping an eye on the temperature in polytunnels, greenhouses and conservatories is a key factor and on frosty nights or during heatwaves it can be critical. I keep two units indoors, 3 sensors on each one, and check the temperatures in our greenhouses and polytunnels last thing at night and first thing in the morning without having to go outside. On many an occasion this has avoided a disaster. Be safe don't be without one of these useful low cost remote wireless weather stations. Choosing the right product from Oregon is a bit of a minefield, so I have tried to provide as much information as is available, including things that are not obvious from the marketing information!
