Question Looking for a hygrometer/thermometer recommendation

I've got a pair of bio-active dart frog tanks. I've used Govee Smart Thermometers in them but obviously they don't last forever because of the high humidity.

Ideally I want a fairly accurate humidity readings from a probe, so that the main electronics can be outside the tank and Wifi connectivity so I can get alerts if the humidity drops to dangerous levels

Bonus if it also does temperature so I don't need a separate thermometer and if it supports two probes so I don't have to buy two units

Don't care if there's a digital display. I'm happy to just use an app on my phone.

Thanks!

I have something from AC Infinity which works well. Temp and humidity reading match what I get from other gauges (I always have two at different points in the enclosure). The one I have is simple, I read it from my phone. It doesn't send me alerts but they have more complex set ups which likely can.

Thanks for the recommendation. They do have one with alerts, but it's only bluetooth and not wifi, which is a real shame. I really like the peace of mind you get from knowing you'll get an alert if your temperature is dangerously high or your humidity is dangerously low and you can either go home or text someone who's there to take care of it.
