This surprising data logger looks exactly like a small battery, but has the features of a larger datalogger. The price is on level with disposable chart recorders, however the Thermochron ® iButton has an expected life time of up to 8 years. It is water resistant and accurate to ±1 °C. To run the system you need a Thermochron ® interface, any number of Thermochrons ® and software.
This data logger has all the features of a larger temperature datalogger, but is the size of a small coin cell battery. These dataloggers are inexpensive, with a lifetime of 5-7 years. iButton dataloggers are water resistant and accurate to ±1 °C between -30 to + 70 °C.
Temperature Technology has expanded the T-TEC datalogger software to also operate the iButtons. A starter kit, complete with software, iButtonspecific serial interface or USB adaptor and one Thermochron data logger, is available.
