Has any one tried this. Just want something simple to read the outdoor temp. Has anyone ever tried doing this with a wireless sensor so there aren't any wires hanging.

Or you could use an auto-dimming mirror with the temp and compass.. don't know what they use for a sensor though.

I have a similar one in my bedroom that I have ad for years it reads indoor and outdoor temps.

For $4 shipped to your door how could you lose.
