This is the same one I have used for years. The outside sensor is kept inside a storage bay. I put new batteries in both units at the beginning of each season.

We have a combination 'atomic' alarm clock/indoor/outdoor thermometer. Hang the outdoor sending unit under the fifth wheel hitch. Clock is nice in that we don't have to set it all the time and thermometer gives a good reading, nearly matching The Weather Channel's numbers.

They work, but I suggest a wireless thermometer. There are a ton of them available...Walmart, etc.
Here is an example.

That's the one I have from Oregon Scientific. I use it at the house and take it on the road when we go camping. Very good unit, comes with one outside remote temp sensor, and you can add other sensors like wind, etc. Got it on Amazon for around $60 after seeing them at Bass Pro. There's a lot of other brands that cost less, and Bass Pro even has their own house brand. I've found it to be very handy at times.

my wireless is about $10 from walmart. shows inside and where ever else you put the sensor.

We have a wireless thermometer with two sensors. One goes on the east side of the camper and the other on the west side.

I use the WIRELESS Thermometer.. These have been the most accurate for us...

Are they 100% accurate - not by any means.... They will read one temperature on one side of the trailer and a different reading on the other...

Who really cares if it is 0ne degree one way or the other...

Tractor Supply has a good one for just 9 bucks! The stick on the window ones are old school.

There is need to stick to window just put the one part of the unit anywhere outside. Laying on a picnic table works and the other part that goes inside that gives you the read can be placed anywhere also.

The stick on window type will destroy the factory tint on the window plus not very accurate

I have one like this. It is far better then the old stick up style. I put the remote unit in my LP storage compartment which is open beneath. The main unit is hanging n a cabinet. it works good, just have to remember to change batteries.
