Temperature Sensors

[Gina Marie]

Does anyone have a source for temperature sensors and analog gauges to measure the heat in the engine room. Thanks Gina Marie

Go over to BoatUS or anywhere else and get a wireless weather station. The cheap temperature-only one works fine

That will take 3 senders. Place monitor on bridge (or wherever.) Place senders wherever.

Done.

Did this 5 years ago, best $20 I spent on the boat. Works great; I have a sender in my engine room and the display on the bridge.

Radio Shack is likely another source.
I happened to use an indoor/outdoor (wire) digital thermometer. The sensor is in the lower portion (bottom) of my engine room, the display in my salon. I originally installed it to monitor winter temps in my engine room...After installation of a heating system I did not have much use for it but it's reassuring during freezing weather..

Another good source for these small inexpensive temperature monitors is Target.
