minus-squareweewlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·2 years agoIt’s not just that temperature sensors really aren’t things people use daily. It’s that this temperature sensor also really sucks. It’s slow, inconvenient, inaccurate, and short range. If you actually needed to measure temperature, a $15 IR gun does the job far, far better.
