Might be just my bad luck but the readings for the temp were way off too.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationUpdate.
Threw the thermometer in the bin (saved the batteries though as they were new! lol) and fitted one of these.
It was a bit of a disaster as the heat from the engine was travelling along the tunnel to the sensor. However, I was later able to run the sensor wire under the carpet and feed the sensor out through the drain grommet in the floor which I replaced with a cable grommet I had in spares.
Sealed it and tucked it away.
End result is a bit kitchenlike but I have checked the readings and they are spot on.

The sensor on that doesn't look to me like its waterproof.

I have one just like it poking out of the house window, had it for years, still going strong. Nonetheless I have actually sealed this one off from the weather; it just doesn't show in the pic.
