Water temp sensor recommendations?

I want to add a water temp sensor to my loop and I was wondering if there is a general consensus as to which one is best?  There's a Phobya inline sensor on Amazon but it gets pretty sketchy reviews.

 

Thanks

I use the Phobya inline sensor and haven't experienced any issues. I'll be adding another one to connect to my second Commander Pro so I'm not relying on USB communication from the 1st unit to use the liquid temperature as a fan curve source on the second.

Phobya are really hit and miss in terms of build quality but the price reflects that.

Keep thinking of doing this soon. Grown bored of speedfan being an utter pain, no save-able profiles so i need to reconfig per new install, and PUBG and Rainbow 6 anti cheat disabling it.
