I produce A LOT of heat when I sleep and I would really like to know how warm I really get. Will this monitor my temp over night?

Just remember, it automatically shuts it's off so you will need to push start each time to use ir

No, you have to hold the trigger to read temperature. It won't just track it for you while you sleep.
1600414
No, you have to trigger the reading for it to work. There is no automated function.

Its not going to stay on your body..if you keep by your bedside and use it when you are awake..it only takes a second to use..I use it as a nurse..everyone loves how quick it is and no touching them!

I know that it detects motion by I am not sure if the detection is accomplished by sensing the heat generated by body motion.

It tracks an "estimated" amount I think based on your height/ weight, and adds to this number based on your steps. So, yes, it records calories burned even while you sleep.

Eric:Like you, I was unable to get a direct read from either of my 2 remote sensors. It, supposedly, will use the readings to "average" the temps, but like you, I would love to see a direct read-out on the face of the stat!Sorry I couldn't help you . . .Mike

It generates a bit of heat yes, but I've never had it overheat. Max ambient temp I used it in was I think 32C.

No it does not. It allows you to turn up and down the temp, and also set back to the current program temp. Pretty basic but workable.TBH, I listen for the click of the relay in the base unit to know when I've triggered heat...

Assuming you are a warm blooded homo-sapien your body temperature is supposed to stay around 98.6. Your body will burn extra energy to try and maintain this temperature if you subject it to unusual cooling. Might want to start with just turning down your thermostat while you sleep though.

No it doesn't . But using the app on your phone makes it easy to monitor. This is a great device when your away at night to turn on or off remotely.

As long as the temperature you're measuring is between -20F and 80F, yes. This thermometer cannot turn an A.C. on and off, but it can tell you the temp of the output air stream or the room temp.

I used it on my son's bed and he has never mentioned being too hot. I have one similar on my own bed and don't think it has affected my body temp at all. I love them.

I'm very hot-natured and hate being hot. We sleep in tshirt PJs with a sheet and a cotton blanket at about 74-75F thermostat setting at night in the summer (78F on thermostat during the day to factor any residual warmth in the mattress), and my back does get warm, but not sweaty. In winter, though, we save $$$ by not needing to run the heater much, if at all, at night (about 68-65F in the house).We're happy enough with the 12 inch mattress and use the warmth to our advantage in winter. We decided on the 12 inch because we measured how far down we sank on our old memory foam mattress. It was a good 8 inches. That fact trumped our questions about heat. hehehe I'm very hot-natured and hate being hot.

No, it really doesn't. It's supposed to create a cooler sleeping temp, based on the heat your body generates (or doesn't). I'm not sure it's doing that, but it's not making me sleep hot. I like it, it's comfortable, and it stays put on the bed.

Yes, both temps show simultaneously. There is an alarm for when the set temp is reached -- you can turn the alarm on or off.

Joel, What it will do is determine temperature from one area to another. for example I was checking dry wall temp and when I got to an outlet it indicated a significant difference in temp from the drywall to outlet. I was able to determine I had a significant amount of outside air coming through the outlet. It won't determine air movement but it worked very well as I described in locating cold spots that I could then investigate.

No. It only measures surface temps. On a side note, my unit broke within an hour of delivery. I would not recommend this product.

I get really hot when I sleep too and I sweat under this comfort but not as bad as I did when we had a heavier one. Hope this helps.

It will monitor total wattage. But you will know how much each individual device consume once you turn it on.
