With more memory than the original StowAway TidbiT logger, the rugged TidbiT v2 Temp Logger is waterproof to 300 m (1000 ft) and is equipped with an optic interface for data offload in the field.
The tiny TidbiT v2 Temp Logger has 12-bit resolution and a precision sensor for ±0.2°C accuracy over a wide temperature range. This new v2 version has more memory than the original StowAway TidbiT logger and communicates through a convenient Optic USB Base Station or HOBO Waterproof Shuttle. The rugged TidbiT v2 Temp Logger is waterproof to 300 m (1000 ft) and is equipped with an optic interface for data offload in the field, even when the logger is wet.
Note: The v2 (orange) TidbiT replaces the v1 Tidbit which was yellow. The v1 Tidbit is still available as a special order. The Optic Shuttle DTA128B is no longer available.
