The RH71 is a low cost microprocessor based digital hygrometer/thermometer for measuring temperature, relative humidity, and dewpoint. Special features include reading temperature/dewpoint temperature in degrees F or C, a hold/reset button for holding the display readings, and a max/min button for storing the maximum or minimum readings. Also available is a optional 0-1 vdc analog output for both temperature and humidity which can go to a recorder, as well as a option for using rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries with recharger.
Is that really what your username stands for?! 😉

neat. I want one.

Edit: Holy sh!t, it's 400$. Screw that, I'll stick with my Radioshack Wireless temp/humidity sensor. 😉
no - obviously it stands for Red Hat 7.1 ! Which I've never used... 🙂

Yea, because it doesn't find everything. My name brings up almost 178,000 results in google (about 105 are actually me), but it doesn't fill it in. Maybe it's looking up an index that is based on a set of the top few million most common searches based on google's logs or something.

I don't want anyone to know I'm into lemur racing. Is my information private?
