hi all just bought an edge 520 and noticed on the front screen it displays the temperature. at present it is saying 31 degrees celcius but its not that in my house! when i scroll up to status it tells me the correct temp but the display at top of screen stays inaccurate? any ideas why?

It may be because you keep playing with it. It will pick up the heat from your hot sweaty mits!

Another thing to look out for: my Garmin Edge 800 sits in a bag in my workplace, air-conditioned to the low 20s. Then I've headed outside to ride home in mid-30s, and the Garmin thermometer reading takes at least 10 minutes to rise up to the outdoor temperature. They take a while to adjust to major temperature changes, particularly if left inside all day then taken outside.
