I use the Wireless Sensor tag in my two home cellars and in my lakehouse cellar. They are easy to setup and wonderfully reliable and work off home WiFi.
There is a great iOs app too. More information at http://wirelesstag.net/
La Crosse remote temperature and humidity sensor. I have two sensors on the system one for each storage location in my house (wine cellar and wine fridge)
If you are serious and in for the long haul, which I finally decided I was
Quit the weather stuff and buy http://wirelesstag.net/ Or, there is something similar. But it’s worth the maybe twice the initial price to get something like these that just works.
Wireless sensor tag. I use it in USA and France. I also use their water sensors for leak detection too in both countries. I use a number of their other products.
This. Cheap and easy. I put redundant sensor tags in different parts of the cellar. I buy them in a quantity of 5. They are inexpensive and work great. I got rid of my Lacrosse system for this and haven’t looked back. I have a liquid monitor too in a bottle of wine I have rigged up. That one did cost a few bucks. Everything is under $70 per item even the liquid sensor. The tags can be obtained for about $25 each.
I am having trouble with wireless tags. I am getting multiple out of range issues even with the unit and tags within six feet of each other. They worked good for about a year plus. The probes used on the water heater for water detection don’t have replaceable batteries. Some of the Battery contacts on the door sensors aren’t working. I am working with the owner to troubleshoot.
Huh…when I read the thread title, I assume Paul was asking at what temperature do you set your alarms. Now that I re-read, I think it was morning brain.
