Remote thermometer ideas

[LowbanksArcher]

Does anyone have anything rigged up so they can read their stove temp from another room?
I have a stove in my basement and would like to be able to see a temperature for reference from upstairs. BBQ thermometer?

I use z-wave home automation motion sensors. They tell me the temp and if someone is breaking in . Those are connected through a wink home automation hub. I also have a smoke/co2 alarm on there.

That just tells the temperature of the room, correct?

I have a PTZ IP camera that can look at the whole room. It's a consumer device, so it's insecure to the point that it's an active danger to everything around it. (This is the norm for internet-connected electronics.)

I set up an isolation subnet for my consumer electronics where every IP is isolated with default-deny on everything. Anything that "needs" to talk to outside servers to work goes in the garbage can. This is enough to mitigate the usual problems with these devices.

Correct it tells the temp each sensor sees and the average between all other sensors in your system.

Auber has a wireless option for their digital thermometer that does not rely on an internet connection.

Thanks! I like everything about this except the price.

The Auber unit is pretty nice, but If you want something simple and inexpensive, you could use this:

You would have to run thermo couple wire from the unit upstairs to the stove basement, this one is 2 channels,
you could monitor both the flue temp and stove top temp.
