I have an Oregon Scientific wireless thermometer/hygrometer. It
basically quit working back in october, and what passes for tech support
at the company told me to take the batteries out for 24 hours ("hard
reset"). I did this and it has worked for however many months it is
from October to now, but has quit again (no communication with the
remote unit).

Have other people had trouble with these products? Oregon Scientific has
several models but I think that they are all pretty much identical at
bottom, just a different selection of bells and whistles. If you have
had trouble, have you figured out a resolution? the damned thing cost
like $60, and it ****es me off that it doesn't even last two years
without problems. I'm trying the "hard reset" trick again.

Your problem is probably just low batteries. At
lower voltages, the batteries may result in
erratic signals that screw it up. There isn't
much you can do except change the batteries.
