What does this actually do, will it tell temperature of the RC batteries SPEED adjustments?? How much does it cost for the app. To make it worThanks

Its capable of giving you real time readings such as voltage, temps and even speed via gps. However I do believe you need the telemetry components..? Not entirely sure on the last part, however. :(

You need voltage temp GPS or rpm>speed your reciever will convert it into MPH or KPM depending on your settings and

It cooooul... but it is way, way, way too slow to respond to changes. And spring style thermometers are, at best, a "vague guess" at temperatures. If at all possible, spring for one of the many good digital-probe styles. A wireless solution with multiple probes will still set a buyer back less than $100.

It's just a thermometer. It does not control the temperature in any way, just reads what the temp is at.

I now see on my Android device a app called 'LED Magic Color Controller'....I personally do not have the bulb to test out if this is legit, but I'm only posting the name in case someone can test this out and reply back to see if I am right or wrong (let's hope I'm right...lol)

Same problem with aircraft batteries. I tried setting it at a low CCA battery setting to see what would happen and got a reading. I have no way to know if that result is accurate. The thing is designed around inputting the CCA to do the test, so I guess it might not be the answer for you. You might want to consider a carbon pile style tester.

I'm sorry Ross, I sold mine because of size and speed. I just don't know, I don't think so because you need the APP to unlock the speed control... Good Luck!

Yes it gives you both speed and temp readings. Speed is provided by way of GPS. Temp is through the transducer.

I have only had mine for about 1 week, but so far no problem with maintaining charge. My house is still very hot, and so I changed the red wire from Rh to Rc. It did help lower the temperature by about 5 degrees, but not even close to my requested temperature of 76. An AC technician (not Nest related company) is coming out today and see if there is a problem with my AC unit.Side note: The iphone app works well but is irritating in that I have to turn the phone sideways to use its features. I like to have my phone orientation locked since I read emails in bed also. The android app does not work at all on my HP Touchpad running ICS.

There has to be a way to change it. I threw the directions away, but when u power on the device it shows Celsius before changing to Fahrenheit. I just can't figure out how to get C to stick

As far as I can tell, it only displays ambient unless you press a button, then it shows the set temp temporarily.

Since there are no absolute setting, playing with the temperature correction factor seems to be the only way to adjust to your batteries. Check the manual for your batteries and look at the bold charge and the trickle charge voltages, then play with the temperature correction to get to about the correct trickle charge. (I am almost always in trickle charge due to my over sized battery bank and oversize solar array.

I just spoke with omron on the phone and it does not. Too bad. Does anybody know of a unit where you can replace the batteries and it tracks calories? (it would also be cool if it showed min, max, and average heart rate for workout, but lets not get greedy). Dave JacksonLogical Weight Loss Podcast

I honestly do not know as we use ours to monitor the pantry and attic temps, also have another one that monitors the basement temp and garage temps. These are really handy little gadgets!! Hope this helps somewhat. Pat Pratt

If you don't know, then you don't need it. Google is your friend, my friend. :O) I use mine to drive NOC screens for work. With another one, I built a thermometer with a USB thermistor to monitor our baby room temperature. Sends a text message, and a notification popup on our openelec/xbmc HTPC box if the crib temp swings beyond a set threshold. Nifty.

Yes, but be aware that it only measures temperature when you ask it to (from the app). It doesn't monitor conditions continuously.

I second what Andrew said below, there is no such thing as "battery calibration". Whatever app you downloaded to "calibrate" the battery could be causing your battery to drain even more. However, if you delete that app and are still having premature battery draining issues, its a good chance you have a defective battery.

Rechargeables is all I use it for really... I really couldn't say it reads incorrectly as I have nothing to compare it to... it lets me know which ones have comparable charges & whether a battery is uncharged or not. I do note that new alkaline batteries show a higher total charge than a fully charged rechargeable. I think as long as you determine what baseline is for your fully charged batteries, this works just fine. If you need to know the exact numerical charge for batteries, this isn't the tester for you.
