Fridge and Freezer Thermometer with Two Programmable Alarm Channels and Audible or LED Notification
This fridge thermometer monitors your refrigerator and freezer together through two programmable alarm channels. Place one probe in each compartment and set high and low temperature limits to receive an audible or LED alert when temperatures move outside your chosen range.
For overnight storage checks, the RT8100 retains a caution symbol if temperatures return to normal while you are away. After 30 minutes in alarm, its duration counter shows elapsed time from the start of the alarm condition, while Min/Max lets you review the highest and lowest temperatures reached during the monitoring cycle.
Each probe has a suction cup holder and three feet of small gauge cable for positioning inside the compartment and securing through the closed door. A fold out stand and magnetic rear panel clips give you practical display placement choices.
