I've lightly Googled and searched here, haven't found one. Is there such a thing as a 'hanging' digital thermometer? I don't want a floating one. I want to know what the temp is a foot down like my old, recently deceased, hanging analog? one showed. But I would love to have a digital, so I don't say "it's 91*" and hub says "oh no it's 90*". LOL I'd like to 'nip this in the bud' with a digital:) Thanks.......

Wish I could help you. I certainly understand you and your Hubby going back and forth about the temperature... mine likes to do that w/me too.

I'd love to have something like this too. The top few inches of our pool are significantly warmer than the rest of the pool.  Oh, and it's my kids. "Oh look! It's 88 degrees!" "No Mom. It's 89 degrees."

I have a remote wireless sensor that let's me set any depth I want and sends the temp back to my main unit in the house. It's made by Oregon Scientific. http://us.oregonscientific.com/cat-Outl ... ensor.html

I've not found anything. Thanks chiefwej. If I'm reading right, I have to also have the base unit. I don't think I want to go that far. Heaven forbid....then he wouldn't legitimately be able to keep the tv on the weather channel. LOL

I have the complete weather set that came with the wireless floating digital thermo, worked for approx 2 / 3 months but it kept getting moisture trapped inside making it hard / impossible to read. The link you provided only brings me to the main site, could'nt find anything like your describing.

The one I have has a sending unit that looks just like the other little, white box sensors, but with a wire ending in a temp probe comming out of the bottom. It is sensor model THC268. I use two, one in the pool and one in the spa. I mounted the sensor boxes on stakes next to the pool deck, ran the wire through an expansion joint and set the probe down about a foot in the water. The temp is shown both on the sensor display and sent to a small receiver (model RAR381).
But, the bad news is they don't seem to have either unit any longer. The only choice for a water temp sensor I could find now is the floating type.
