I have a TempMinder from Camping World with three wireless sensor modules and a builtin sensor. Saves Min/Max temps for all four but otherwise doesn't do much else.
It was invaluable recently to see what the temps were as it was freezing outside. When at camp I left one on the truck bumper, another in the valve compartment and the third in the outside shower compartment. When travelling we moved the outside one into the basement. I was surprised that even the shower compartment stayed about 5-10 degrees above outside temp. So now I know that for a few hours anyway I'm ok travelling at 27F without having to winterize.
The wireless works with the station in the camper or the truck or in my living room with the camper in the driveway so range is good. Don't know how long the batteries will last. One month so far.
