Thermio technical specs

Detailed specifications for hikers who want to dig deeper into sensors, accuracy, logging, battery, environmental limits, app features, and validation status.

Some values below are validated component specifications, some are pre-production product targets, and some are still in development. Final production specs will be confirmed before launch.

Sensors and measurement

Temperature

±0.1 °C typical accuracy (sensor specification)

−30 to +60 °C operating range

Validated component spec. Actual product accuracy may vary with enclosure and airflow conditions.

Humidity

±0.5 %RH typical accuracy (sensor specification)

0–100 %RH

Below approximately −20 °C, humidity readings may show reduced confidence.

Barometric pressure

±0.2 hPa absolute accuracy (sensor specification)

260–1260 hPa

Useful for pressure trend detection and altitude estimation.

Calibration and traceability

Thermio is built on a factory-calibrated sensor with documented traceability:

Factory-trimmed

Each sensor is individually trimmed at the factory — accurate out of the box, with no user calibration required.

NIST-traceable

Calibrated against references traceable to NIST standards.

ISO 17025 calibration

Reference calibration carried out under ISO/IEC 17025.

Logging and data

  • Default logging interval: 15 seconds (configurable via app)
  • On-device data storage with BLE sync to the companion app
  • On-device memory holds roughly 200 days of logging at the default 15-second interval on real hiking data, and about 51 days in a realistic worst case
  • Historical graphs and trend views in the app
  • CSV export for full data logs
  • Each paired sensor is tracked and displayed separately in the app

App capabilities

The companion app connects to your sensors via Bluetooth.

  • View current temperature, humidity, and pressure readings
  • Browse historical graphs and pressure trends
  • Track each paired sensor separately with individual data views
  • Use Thermio and Thermio Mini together — the app shows both sensors’ values and graphs in one place
  • Export data as CSV for your own analysis
  • Set custom alert thresholds for temperature, humidity, and pressure changes (coming soon)
  • Available in 10 languages

Available for iOS and Android.

Power and battery

  • Thermio: CR2032 coin cell — around 2 years of runtime with logging active and Bluetooth on
  • Thermio Mini: CR1632 coin cell — around 2 years of runtime with logging active and Bluetooth on

Runtimes refer to normal use — the sensor logging at the default interval with Bluetooth enabled. Measured on production hardware. Actual life also depends on logging interval and how often you sync. User-replaceable coin cell.

Environmental and durability

  • Operating temperature: −30 to +60 °C
  • Water resistance: in development — no rating claimed yet

Enclosure sealing is still in development, so we are not claiming a water-resistance rating and have not set one as a target. The enclosure is designed for rain, splashes, and exposed trail use, and is not intended for submersion. If we reach a rating we can stand behind, we will publish it here.

Cold-tested to −20 °C. Pressure and temperature sensors perform well in cold conditions. Humidity accuracy may decrease below −20 °C.

Designed for trail use — clip it to your pack, guyline, or carabiner and leave it in the weather.

Connectivity

  • Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) sync with the companion app
  • Sensor operates independently — no phone needed for on‑device readings or data logging
  • Sync when in range to transfer stored data to the app

Physical specs

  • Thermio weight: 9 g (target)
  • Thermio Mini weight: 5 g (target)
  • Thermio display: 1.28″ reflective memory LCD + bonded Gorilla Glass
  • Thermio Mini: no display — data accessed via app
  • 3D-printed enclosure
