AcuRite 01083M Pro Accuracy Temperature & Humidity Monitor

I recently purchased the AcuRite Pro Humidity Meter & Thermometer with Touch Activated Backlight, and it has been a very satisfying addition to our RV. The device is user-friendly, with a straightforward interface that makes it easy to read and understand the current temperature and humidity levels. One of the standout features for me is the different mounting options. This flexibility is particularly useful in an RV setting, where space is at a premium and you need devices that can adapt to different spaces. The AcuRite Pro fits this need perfectly. In terms of accuracy, this device is spot on. I've compared its readings with other measuring devices I own, and it consistently delivers accurate results. There are no discrepancies or issues in its performance, which gives me confidence in the data it provides. Another aspect I appreciate is the quick visual readout. The display is clear and easy to read at a glance, which is convenient when you're busy and just need a quick check. Additionally, the size of the unit is just right – it's compact enough not to be obtrusive in our RV, yet large enough to easily read the display. Overall, the AcuRite Pro Humidity Meter & Thermometer is a reliable and handy tool for anyone needing to keep track of environmental conditions, especially in smaller living spaces like an RV. Its ease of use, accuracy, and compact size make it an excellent choice.

Works fine for my needs in a bedroom and seems to be accurate. The backlight is nice for checking at night but the screen is almost too bright in a completely dark room.

First off, this is initial review: I will update if things change in the future. I'm actually quite happy with this product. I'm knocking one star off because it doesn't have a little stand to put it on. That has not been a problem for me as the table I have it on is very sturdy and does not wobble so it works fine. I do not seem to have the level of problems reading the meter as I have seen in other reviews. I mean really, it's your basic LCD. I can view mine from probably a 40 degree angle but not much more without really straining. But again, where I haven't it's not a problem. A couple of life hacks for you: while the unit does take a while to adjust to temperature, all I did was lean it up against a cold soda can. It did take a while, but eventually the temperature went down in about probably 40 minutes to a fairly accurate degree. What I did find, is that if you leave the cover off for the batteries it will adjust a lot quicker. I really could give a crap about the battery cover so for me it's not a big deal. As far as the stand or lack thereof I should say, I did another little life hack. Since this does not weigh much at all, all I did was take a little quick of cardboard off of a snack box, like triscuits, and cut it off a little less wide than the unit itself. Then I bent the cardboard about in half. I then took a little piece of clear Scotch tape from the lower bezel of the unit just below the screen. Bingo! Instant cheap stand. I know that this is not optimal, but you can't see it as far as the stand, behind the unit, so who cares? Not me. I actually had a little bit of fun setting these up. The humidity gauge is pretty accurate right away, but the temperature does take a while to adjust and is accurate from 1 to 2° which is fine with me. If I wanted a higher end unit I would have bought one. This concludes my review.

A great dependable meter. Updates quickly like every 10 seconds. Batteries last a long time, as I recall I only changed once after about 3 years of continuous use. I find the backlight very handy (tap the top to light). Temperature was accurate vs other gauges in the home. Didn't have another hygrometer to compare against. But taking the math approach you can take the local weather readings and calculate what the indoor relative humidity should probably be, and it was right on accurate. Great value for the money! Recently bought another one for a friend.

Works as it should and the backlight feature is useful in dim places. Only wished that it can be connected via wifi/IOT so that I can monitor the readings remotely

Funciona muito bem

A smidge smaller than an audio cassette or one and a quarter USB's high LOL. What a great looking unit. I recently had a new furnace and humidifier installed. The main new full featured digital thermostat gives me temperature and humidity readings on the main floor; but, I also need to know the same downstairs in the family room so I opted for this AcuRite 01083M Pro Accuracy Temperature and Humidity Monitor after perusing others. It met all my check marks as I know perfect doesn't exist for several reasons, having worked in the industry (unless your room is a controlled sealed bubble per se). Therefore, good and in this case very good does a great job for me. A quick glance at my family room bar fridge (where an integrated magnetic mount holds this unit), and I now have a temperature and humidity reading that is almost bang on, having tested it from the position of my thermostat upstairs. Besides, my main one is wired and costs in the lower mid triple digit category, and I'm going to compare apples to oranges? Nope! But, both of these units are closer to apples to apples and oranges to oranges. They are that good. Why does that matter? I can now set the humidifier to meet my requirements that will keep my acoustic guitar and electric guitar happy. Remember I said perfect doesn't exist? 40% - 50% humidity is usually recommended for the guitars to prevent neck warping, cracking and more, but that can be bordering on too high for some homes, so I keep a happy medium around 40% - 42% when they aren't humidified in a case. A back light? That would be handy, I suppose, but I'm guessing battery usage would increase, and I like this slick modern design Temperature and Humidity Monitor layout, size, and features. This AcuRite does the trick. Recommended.

Very easy to set up and is great to use in a room with accurate readings.

Very useful device for checking room temperature. Would be great if it could be more easily calibrated.
