A little while ago Radio shack had a nice temp. and volt
meter on sale.  I bought 3 of them.   WOrks great until the
outside temp. probe got wet.  Temp. reading  outside went nuts.
  ALso I mounted mine to the plastic panal where the heat
comes out.  Well need less to say  that thing get real hot
and the side temp. also goes nuts.
