Taking the temperature - What's New? - thermometers - Brief Article - Statistical Data Included

* Okay, your bedroom is nice and cozy, but what's doing outside? Or, it's such a nice day, why's it so hot (or cold) in here? If you are consumed by such questions about temperature, there's a simple solution from Zelco Industries, Inc., Mt. Vernon, N.Y.

The 2nd Degree Indoor-Outdoor Thermometer System consists of a pair of three-inch-diameter thermometers with large, easy-to-read numbers. Designed to be mounted utilizing high-performance adhesive on either side of a window (the outside thermometer, of course, faces in so you can see it), they give you an accurate reading of the temperature inside the room and on the other side of the glass. The inside thermometer ranges from 0[degrees] to 110[degrees]F, while its outside counterpart goes from -60[degrees] to 120[degrees]. There is also an inner dial that gives the same readings in Celsius, should you care.
