Amazon.com Review
Many modern homes have up-to-date clocks or mini weather stations that depend on radio-transmitted data to stay calibrated and current. The La Crosse TX6U works outdoors by sensing temperature and transmitting that information to an indoor station. It can transmit to a base up to 80 feet away. The TX6U can be added to augment information coming to La Crosse units already in operation. Remove batteries from base units first and activate sensors; then replace batteries in base units and press no buttons until a display appears. Multiple sensors can be assigned a number so that it will be clear which information from which sensor is displayed. The TX6U operates on two AA batteries. Its housing is made of durable, neutral-tone plastic. For options in wall mounting, two screws and screw anchors and a strong adhesive tape are included. The TX6U measures 5-1/2 by 1-1/2 by 1 inch. La Crosse provides a one-year limited warranty on its sensors. Each sensor comes with a detailed instruction sheet. --Garland Withers

This sensor did exactly what is suppose to do. I took it out of the box, followed the instructions and it started working just fine. LaCrosse makes a very good product.

I had to replace the original sensor b/c the double-sided tape did not hold up to the painted surface of my home. It was tucked under the roof and safe from the elements but did not hold. It hit the ground from approx 8' up and the dog chomped on it a bit. It was still intact with some bite marks but did not function. This time I used both the tape and the screws and it has held up well. Time will tell but I expect it to work as well as it has for my parents for some time.
Works well if in a protected area May 30, 2009

I only wish this item was impervious to the weather, since it has to be placed outside to work! This one replaced the original supplied with the clock/thermometer that, after a few years, fell off the wall and into a puddle of mud. They say not to mount where it will get wet, and the unit obviously doesn't like thick mud, either. I placed the new unit in a more protected location, and so far, so good. I was very happy to find this replacement unit on Amazon for far less than ordering directly from La Crosse. And buying the replacement sensor was a LOT cheaper and less wasteful than buying a new clock!

These sensors worked flawlessly from the moment that we put the battery's in them. So far they have registered 2 to 75 degrees without a hitch. We are very happy.

Be careful to put batteries in correctly. And don't let it get soaking wet, a few drops are OK. I ruined one when it was knocked from its outside protected location and got very wet. Original lasted 3 years.
