Title. Having some issues with inadequate heat in an apartment and need to compile some hard data. Can’t seem to find something that checks all the boxes. Needs to be under $100.

Thank you.

Edit: Needs to be friendly enough for an old lady to be able to plug it in and turn it on.

    Just get 2 of these:

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09DPCW47P/

    Can pair with your phone over Bluetooth, or if you’re feeling adventurous, you can spend the rest of your budget on a Raspberry Pi and install Home Assistant on it - it’ll pick these things up automatically, and you can start on your quest of understanding your home with one of the best tools out there.

    Snag a 4-pack of AAA Eneloops & a charger, and you won’t have to worry about disposing of batteries for all of your new sensors.

    You can also swap one of their outdoor ones with an indoor one with a screen so you can view at a glance - just look for one that takes AAA batteries.
