Summary of Timex TX5100 Electronic LCD Indoor Thermometer/Hygrometer with Clock

The TX5100 also offers a number of comfort-related icons, including a happy face (for comfort) that appears when the temperature is between 68 and 78.8 degrees F and the humidity is between 40 and 70 percent. The wet icon, meanwhile, appears when the humidity is between 70 and 90 percent (as does the "not happy" face), while the dry icon shows up between 30 and 40 percent. Should the humidity dip or rise above the 20 to 90 percent measuring range, the TX5100 displays a Hi? or Lo? icon.

In addition, the TX5100 features a minimum/maximum memory function that records the high and low temperatures and humidity levels of the day. The values are available at the push of a button, with a second button clearing and resetting the memory on command. And the unit's built-in clock is no slouch, either, with settings for 12-hour (with AM and PM) and 24-hour modes along with a daily alarm and an eight-minute snooze button. And should you prefer to view the month and day instead of the time, simply press the Mode button.

Other details include a silver oval housing with a light green bezel surrounding the transparent LCD panel, a hide-way panel that conceals the pushbuttons, and an integral folding table stand that lets you angle the unit for optimal viewing. The TX5100, which comes with two preinstalled 1.5-volt button cell batteries, measures 2.5 by 3.5 by 0.81 inches (W x H x D) without the stand is backed by a one-year warranty.
