This weather station is fun to use. It is very accurate if you put the sensor in the correct place. For example, I first put it in my fenced in back yard. The temp. always read warmer than what it really was. I then moved in on the north side of our house, which is the front. The temperature is now very accurate. You might have to put the sensor in different places until you find the best spot. Before you put the sensor permanently somewhere, watch the temperature for a while to make sure it is close to the same temperature on T.V or the internet. It is fun to use and to know the correct temperature without having to always check the weather on T.V. or the internet. It is fast and convenient. I also love how it gives the temperature and humidity outside and inside the house. I highly recommend this produt.
This product does everything that it says it can do quite well actually. You really dont require the manual except for figuring out how to synchronize the atomic clock. Everything else is pretty simple to use and straight forward. The display has a good contrast and is readable. The indications on the display concerning temperature, pressure, weather forecast is self explanatory. One look at the display and it is evident. Overall a great buy.
Have had this weather station and the anemometer for about 10 months, bought in Feb 03. It has performed exceptionally well. One of the sensors was transmitting but not reading directly. I returned it and a new unit was promptly sent. A nice feature is the memory unit that stores data, allowing you to see highs and lows for a preceding period. When used with the anemometer, it tracks the highest wind gust recorded to date. A nice unit at a reasonable price. I have experiance with using professional weather instruments, and this unit provides excellent data at a reasonable price. The wireless feature is great, no cable to string.
This thermometer/hygrometer is highly usable, with great base/remote reception, easy setup, and nice ergonomics. Unfortunately, the important bit, i.e.- the actual MEASUREMENT of temperature and humidity, is complete nonsense. I sat the base station and remote monitor right next to each other for a couple of hours, changed the RF channels, changed the monitor position/orientations, and they never even vaguely reflected the same temp/humidity - there was always at least a 5 degrees (F) and 5 percentage points of humidity differential, although they should be pretty much identical! I followed the owner's manual recommendations for synching them more frequently, and it made zero difference. Even worse, when you put the monitors outside and let them sit out there for an hour or so, they are still WAY off in their measurements of temp and humidity versus Accuweather, NWS, and Weather.com. In my measurements at home on my 12th-floor balcony, a mile from midtown Manhattan, both the base monitor and remote were always at least 8 degrees (too high) and ten percentage points of humidity (too low) off from the consensus reading from the presumable "reference" data compiled by numerous high-end, science-grade weather stations. Ironically, my $10 oven thermometer I just bought for Thanksgiving is pretty much dead-on with the reference temperature measurements, while this so-called "weather station" averages almost 10 degrees off and 15 humidity points off!! If Amazon wants to be a responsible retailer, it should stop selling this thing until Oregon Scientific works out the bugs. I'm not some weather nutjob - I just wanted this gizmo to measure humidity in my baby's nursery during the dry winter months, but I was very disappointed. I think I'll stick with the old school, analog "piles of dials" approach.
Have been pleased as punch with this instrument. The baramometer is accurate once adjusted to elevation in meters. The remote guage works well outside in the weather. You can measure four seperate temps with the addition of three more remotes. The clock will sync after a few days. I love this thing.......
