Works great. No base station required. August 7, 2008
I wanted something portable so I could check the temperature and humidity throughout my house. This does the trick. Also my cooling system has a humidity dial but it doesn't tell you what humidity it is adding to your house. I believe you want around 40-45%. If humidity is too low, you can suffer from dry noses, skin, and throats, as well as cracked fingertips, and you're more likely to catch a cold. Dryness can also damage wood and drywall, cause your wood floors to shrink. Humidity that is too high will stain ceilings and walls, and can cause paint and wallpaper to peel. It also can cause mold. Use rechargeable batteries this think eats batteries.
I had to recharge after
 Beware of coverage across rooms July 26, 2008
I live in a modest appartment. I have one base station with a TX4U for outside temperature that works wonderfully yet can do more than one sensor. I wanted to monitor the babies' room temperature so the TX7U seemed like a nice match -- it would display on my base station and be readable in the room. It does that just fine... when both are in the same room.
Unfortunately the usable distance between the sensor and the base station is very short, drastically less than advertised: I get nothing if there's more than a few yards between both. At 20 feet across two wooden walls I get intermittent readings. If I close room doors or move up to 30 feet there's no more temperature reading on the base station. So read the advertised 300 feet distance for that it really says: outside, line-of-sight in perfect conditions.
Works great May 5, 2008
I bought this to use with my LaCrosse weather station and it works just fine. It's nice when I am outside that I can see what the temperature and humidity are by just looking at it.
La Crosse Technology TX7U Sensor January 28, 2008
Purchased with WC-8015TWC Base unit. I have placed this unit as a stand alone unit in a room in our house to monitor temperature and humidity. I can either read the temp and humidity directly at the unit or go to the room with the base station. It is working great for my purpose.

I purchased this TX7U sensor as an added measurement zone for a La Crosse/The Weather Channel Weather display that I bought over a year ago to monitor my front and back yards - the system originally used TX4U sensors that read temperature and humidity and relayed the data by UHF telemetry to the base display. Since the TX4U is no longer available, I purchased the TX7U, which is fully compatible. The nice thing about the TX7U is that in addition to sending live data to a base display up to 300 feet away, that it also has a built-in LCD display that shows the actual temperature and relative humidity (no need to go back to the base display to see what is being sent). I use this sensor as my third zone (my base unit displays up to 3 zones) inside my greenhouse, where I overwinter tropical palm specimens that wouldn't survive the rare freezes we see in So. Cal. every 15 to 17 years. Now I can wake up in the middle of a cold night and glance over at the base display and see what the conditions in my greenhouse actually are. I highly recommend this sensor and the LaCrosse product line.
