Thank you for taking your time and writing a review. We appreciate your feedback. Please make sure you have the sensor mounted at least 5 feet off the ground. We recommend something like a well covered tree branch with plenty of fresh air to circulate around the sensor. This also protects it from the direct weather elements such as sun and rain. You also want to make sure you don't have it by any doors or windows, or heat sources or vents as this can give inaccurate readings. The accuracy rating is +/-2°, +/-5% per unit. If your units are reading outside of the accuracy range, please verify you are using the battery recommendations and try the troubleshooting steps listed below. Batteries: •Verify you are using fresh alkaline batteries or lithium batteries (when temperature is below -4°F/-20°C) in sensor. •Quality brand batteries are recommended, including Duracell Coppertops (Black and copper), Rayovac, Energizer, or Kirkland. •Verify batteries are fresh. The battery expiration date should be at least 6 years out. Batteries can lose 3% power or more every year in storage. •Heavy duty, extra strength or generic / store brand batteries are not recommended for use with AcuRite products because they may cause performance irregularities due to the way these types of batteries disperse power. Each battery should not exceed 1.6 volts. •Rechargeable batteries are not recommended for use with AcuRite products because they may cause performance irregularities due to the voltage instability of these types of batteries. •Mixing different battery types (brands, old/new, etc.) is not recommended. Hard reset: - Bring both units side by side and remove all batteries, unplug display if it has an ac adapter - Change the ABC Switch to a different setting and ensure that both are on the same setting. example - If on A, move both to C - Place batteries into the outdoor sensor first - Place batteries into display - Allow units to sit side by side until they connect.
