Overview
Optical Interface for data transferOnly 3x4 cm, this tiny data logger measures temperatures over a wide temperature range. The TidbiT v2 provides 12-bit resolution and has ±0.2 °C accuracy. It is designed for outdoor and underwater environments and is waterproof to 300 m (1000 ft). An optical USB interface allows users to offload data in seconds. Please note, a solar radiation shield is required to obtain accurate air temperature measurements in sunlight (RS1 Solar Radiation Shield, assembly required; or M-RSA pre-assembled Solar Radiation Shield).

The CE Marking identifies this product as complying with the relevant directives in the European Union (EU).
* To guarantee accuracy, the TidbiT v2 Temp must not be used in condensing environments and water temperatures higher than 30C (86F) for more than eight cumulative weeks over the life of the logger. Frequent or prolonged exposure will lead to measurement drift and eventual failure.
