[QUOTE="condor22, post: 630890, member: 1932"] Interesting observation re temperature. I have several fridge temp gauges 1. My original wired Engel probe gauge, 2. An Ironman wireless gauge (used in my old 30lt Engel) and 3. An Engel wireless gauge, which I recently purchased. The Engel 40 lt combi is set to 3 C, divider removed and as a fridge only. Being used as a drinks fridge on 240 VAC at the moment indoors. The Engel and Ironman transmitters are next to each other and the wired probe within a couple of centimeters of them. Here are the temps; Fridge set to 3 C (Stated as a guide only) Engel Wireless 3.2 C (Range over the last 24 hours is 3.1 to 3.2) Ironman Wireless 2.7 C (No max/min as only ambient and fridge are recorded) Engel wired probe 0.8 C (Range over 24 hours -1.8 C to 0.8 C) I would think the Engel wireless is the more accurate as that is the set temp of the fridge. The old wired probe looks like retirement is on the cards and the Ironman is pretty basic and reading low. [/QUOTE]
