Definitely the HOBO U-10, T&RH model is $69, $64 for 10 or more.  Hoboware Pro software (required for launching and charting results) is $99.  It has some limitations, but for historic house and small museum use, nothing is a better value.  And, as an aside, it is made near you in Onset, MA (www.1800loggers.com)

Subject: -- Spam --[MUSEUM-L] data logger recommendations

Hello List,

 

I’m sure this question has been asked ad nauseaum, but I’m looking for recommendations for data loggers. Looking for inexpensive, reliable, easy to use—the usual requirements for a small understaffed historical society.

 

Thanks.
