Wireless Pool Thermometer Suggestion

[SirSwimAlot]

I'm looking for a Wireless Pool Thermometer, anyone have one they use that works well?
I'd like one solar but haven't seen any options for it but suspect the battery life is pretty good.

The Ambient Weather is about the best I’ve found. All the floating sensors seem to leak after the have been opened a number of times for battery replacement. Ambient uses a solar cell to supplement the battery power so you replace the battery less often. I get a few years out of a sensors before needing replacement at $22. There are a number of different models and prices.

I agree with chiefwej. I've had one of the Ambient Weather models for over 3 years now and the same floating sensor. Replaced the battery only about 3 times as well and have noticed no leaks. Be sure to use vaseline on the seal (more is better than less) to help ensure a good seal when assembling the sensor.

You probably don't want Vaseline. Use Silicon grease instead. Any plumbing Dept should stock it.
