    I've been using a solar powered window thermometer for years. This is a similar model on Amazon for less than $8. https://www.amazon.com/Topker-Digita...RTZJZFA80MF0XT

    However, I've quickly grown to love the SensorPush... I'm a bit of a weather geek and it's fun to track what happened overnight. Just wish it had barometer, too, and it would be perfect.

    Love my SensorPush sensors and agree a barometer would be a great addition.

    SensorPush here as well, but as someone noted earlier in this thread, there is a similar product made by Kestrel. The Drop D3 does measure pressure, along with humidity, heat index, dewpoint, and more. It's also IP67 sealed, unlike the SensorPush, which could be vulnerable to rain through the small hole that allows for humidity measurement. I'm curious how the Kestrel measures humidity while also being sealed to withstand submersion in 1m of water. Looks like an interesting option though, especially for weather geeks.

    That's interesting! Link for D3.

    To measure baro/hygro I would imagine they use something like the stretched Teflon (PTFE) membrane in Gore-Tex that permits water vapor while keeping out liquid water.
