Hello all,



We have a basement, that was recently well insulated and cleaned.



In full disclosure, that is where our wine rack is kept.



I’ve wanted a thermometer to put down there but did not want a talking one, but one that worked with an app.



So, my wife got busy shopping on Amazon.



She came across one called the govee Thermometer and humidity sensor… for $15.99.

Govee is spelled g o v e e.



It arrived today. The set up was done by my sighted wife but perhaps if we’d made sure the batteries were connected correctly, it would have just shown up for me, but who knows.

IN any case, the app seems fully accessible.

I’ll list all the details about it below. I did not set up an account, as all I want to know is the temperature and humidity.

I may set up an account to keep track of the data over time, but for the first day I just wanted to know it works.

It does.



We have roughly a 1300 square foot house.

The basement is concrete and open to the crawl space under the house which is why we finally got it insulated, etc.



The basement is under the front half of the house.



Being Bluetooth, I wasn’t sure it would work through the floor, but it works just fine.

It’s a sunny day here and when it was first turned on after being in the delivery truck, it read about 82 degrees, and 37 % humidity., bout 20 degrees warmer than it is outside today.

IN about 45 minutes in the basement it reads: 60.6 degrees and 50.7 % humidity. The temp is gradually dropping and the humidity raising, but I suspect they are near their final readings.



Here is the full name at Amazon followed by the link:

Govee Temperature and Humidity Monitor, Bluetooth Room Humidity Sensor with APP Alert, 328 Feet Bluetooth Covering Range, 2 Year Data Record and Export
