Questions & Answers

Are there any lights on these LaCrosse atomic clocks?

No, but even in low-light situations, I've always been able to see the display.

Is the wood genuine?

It's just a few plastic inserts, that's all.

My primary concern is the accuracy of the moon phases. ?

I find it to be effective. What do you mean by precise? It displays the moon phases that are synchronized. 3/4, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/8, 1/8, 1/8, 1/8, 1/8, 1/8, 1/8 Enough to be accurate. Looking out the window at night allows me to make a comparison, which appears to be accurate.

On the frequency of 433, I have a weather ambient unit. 9mhz. Will they overlap or can I use my other transmitter for both? This unit says it's on 433mhz. Will they overlap or can I use my other transmitter for both?

Despite the fact that the frequencies used are similar, different manufacturers are usually inaccessible to one another.

Setting it up was a lot easier than I had anticipated
4/5

However. The indoor and/or outdoor thermometers, in my opinion, are not accurate.

It doesn't require detailed instructions, but I'd like to comprehend the various symbols visible on the clock but not explained (e. g. , The Broadcast symbol above the seconds appears to indicate that the radio signal was received.

We have a small Seiko "atomic" clock that is excruciatingly difficult to set and operate. I was concerned that this unit would be as painful as the previous one. However, this was not the case. Without any instructions, you should be able to figure out how to set the time and/or alarm. That is, after all, how it SHOULD be.

Pros and Cons (some of each)
3/5

After a week with this clock, I've made a few observations, the majority of which are positive, but there are a few that are negative. I suppose it depends on which of the features you value the most. That said, not all of the functions on my clock work as I had hoped (accuracy), and without a backlight, I can't see the moon phases; however, I can clearly see the time and temperatures from a distance. My biggest gripe is that the outside temperature is always three degrees higher than it actually is (I double-checked). The following is a quote from the manual that I found online: "For two hours, place the remote sensor next to the atomic clock and compare the indoor and remote temperatures. To be within tolerance, the temperatures should be between 4 and 6 degrees. " I couldn't believe my eyes when I read what I was reading! Is it okay if it's FOUR degrees off and that's considered acceptable? I don't want to have to add or subtract a certain number of degrees to figure out what the outside temperature is.

a hunk of junk - First, I've worked in information technology for over 30 years, so I'm pretty tech-savvy
3/5

This device was placed near a window. Today is the day when the clocks go forward one hour. It's 3: Afternoon temperature of 56°F. It's 2 a. m. , according to the clock. So Accuracy gets a two-star rating (it keeps time well when it's set correctly, but it's supposed to adjust for DST). During the day, or when the lights are turned on, it's fairly simple to read. When the lights are dimmed, however, it's almost impossible to see it. I gave Warmth three stars because I'm not sure what Warmth means in terms of a clock. br>The takeaway here is that if you want a clock that you don't have to adjust twice a year for time change, this is NOT the clock for you.

It's far superior to the one I had previously
5/5

My old SkyScan's external temperature unit failed. The cost of a new temp unit was $23, and the cost of this entire new unit was only $25. Although this unit is slightly smaller than my previous one, the temperature displays are larger, and I like that it displays the trend (up, down, steady). It's just as precise as my old one, and it's simple to set up.

It was well worth the money
5/5

So far, it's a fantastic clock that does exactly what it says it will. I took a photo of the temperature outside with my cellphone, and it's pretty close to what the clock shows. It meets my expectations and comes highly recommended.

This is a very attractive wall clock
4/5

I bought it to replace a broken wall clock, and I'm glad I did. It's a very attractive and functional wall clock. I like that the day of the week is spelled out (not "Wed" but "Wednesday," for example), and that you can turn off the atomic clock if you don't want it on (this seems to be a problem for clocks that require this where I live because they don't seem to work right and mess up dates and times). I've had other La Crosse clocks before, and this one is fantastic! Update: I had to reduce my rating to four stars due to time constraints. The left- When the time is a "1," the most recent digit is difficult to see because it is so close to the screen's left edge. It's fine if you look at the clock straight on, but it's often difficult to tell if there's a 1 there if you're looking at it from any angle. As an example, the left-hand side of 11 can resemble the right-hand side of 1. Because it is so close to the left edge of the screen and has so little margin, most 1 almost blends in with it.

Make a financial saving! What a show! We can't read this clock without going into the next room after it's been mounted on the wall
3/5

The proportions are incorrect. Regrettably, this clock replaced a model that had hung in the same location for nearly two decades. We replaced it with the same model clock after it died due to leaking batteries. That was a huge blunder. This new clock bears no resemblance to the previous one. If you try to read it from any angle other than straight on, you won't be able to see what's on the screen. From any angle, the old clock, which was the same model as before, could be read. Oh well. Now I'm on the lookout for a new one. We don't need an unreadable clock. I'm going to return this clock.
