Does that include using piece-wise linear terms for accuracy? Is there any data on accuracy over a narrow temp range such as 0-40C? 
 
 Thanks

Likely in the &amp;lt;+/-1.5C range. Typically it is at the higher temperatures (&amp;gt;40C) that you will see the most deviation, though it seems to consistency measure too high at the higher level, so if you subtract with 1-2C when passing 40C you should improve accuracy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
