I've been logging the temperature in my house in anticipation to move my furance over to the webcontrol board. I started out with a waterproof digital probe from ebay. It was very accurate and quick to respond to temperature changes. Thinking of space and looks, I switched to a regular temperature sensor like this one. I drilled some holes in a small box and mounted the temp sensor and a humidity sensor to the wall by the original thermostat. The humidity sensor is working great, but the temperature sensor is not reading accurate at all.
I took the cover off of it thinking that it wasn't getting enough air exposer, but same results. Then I took the sensor that was reading accurately, and mounted it next to the other one. Now both are not reading right at all.
Is mixing styles causing the problem? I wouldn't think so, but I don't know.
