Default Could someone recommend a good quality in/out + min/max thermometer?

I've seen a few on E-bay which looked good but then I had a browse through these forums and someone said that they sucked so I dunno which one to get now. I don't mind buying a pricey one as long as I know it's accurate and it's not gonna break on me after 2 days.



This is the one that someone said sucked-eBay.co.uk: THERMOMETER HYGROMETER IDEAL FOR HYDROPONIC & REPTILE (item 280101945818 end time 15-Apr-07 21:59:12 BST)


This one looks good, anyone got one of these?- eBay.co.uk: Digital Thermo Hygrometer Incubator Reptile Hatch Egg (item 160099262788 end time 22-Apr-07 14:34:45 BST)


Or these?- eBay.co.uk: Digital In-Out Thermometer Reptile Incubator Hydroponic (item 160074948827 end time 16-Apr-07 22:43:06 BST)



Thanks

they all look fine if you want a hydrometer as well as a thermometer which those 3 have then you will have to pay a bit more, if you just want a bog standard in/out thermometer you could get one cheaper, depending on how much you want to spend they all look fine

The first one's crap. I bought one which started playing up the day I got it and stopped working. I emailed them - TBH they were pretty good when it came to sorting the problem out - and we tried to work it out, in the end I returned it to them, they sent it back a week later saying that the battery terminal had folded down. How crap is that??! After that I bought the circular green one on ebay which worked, and I have a bit more confidence in. Other two look OK though!

I am going to get 2 of these:
eBay.co.uk: Digital Thermo Hygrometer Hydroponics Humidity £24 RRP (item 160107432946 end time 19-Apr-07 22:29:25 BST)

They are both a thermometer and hygrometer, are these any good ?

If you just want a thermometer try this one from Maplins: Dual Display In/Outdoor Thermometer with Alarm

I have used one of these for months and it is very good.
