Default Oregon Scientific BAA968HG - Sensor positions

Ok, so I've just bought one today and have an issue with where to put the
sensors. They are bright white with a digital display on them. The problem
with this is that they appear very pinchable and I guess I'll have to buy
some sought of a screen to put it into.

I wondered if anyone has come up with an ingenious idea to disguise them.

Currently it's sitting on my garden seat reading a temperature of -2.9C
which I doubt is correct.

Now that's one problem I didn't think of! Plant a bush in front of it (but only
one that's exactly 2m above ground level ).

My experience is that these sensors are a bit temperamental anyway - one of the
three in my kit is entirely useless, while one won't transmit to the base unit.
The final one sits in my garden in the best possible position I could find, and
thankfully seems to work!

I suppose you could get some khaki(sp) paint???
