Wireless Weather Station and Self-Setting Clock

Oregon Scientific BAR608HGA Wireless Weather Station and Self-Setting Clock

Attractive styling and cutting-edge technology make this wireless weather station stand out from the rest. Rounded edges and a sliding panel that conceals the controls give it a softer, more streamlined look than similar units, while a remarkably complete feature set satisfies the weather geek within. A remote wireless sensor measures temperature and humidity from up to 100 feet away. Purchase additional sensors to monitor temperature and humidity in up to three remote locations at once, including at the main unit. A multi-channel barometer tracks changing air pressure to predict the weather for the next 12 to 24 hours, using one of four graphic icons (Sunny, Cloudy, Partly Cloudy, or Rainy) to indicate the forecast. The time function automatically synchronizes with the US Atomic Clock, providing accurate timekeeping that never needs adjustment–even for Daylight Savings Time. Other features include month/date display, calendar, crescendo alarm with snooze function, and moon phase indicator. The unit provides trend information (rising, stead or falling) for pressure, humidity, and temperature, plus stores minimum and maximum temperature and humidity readings until reset. Its six-line, four-inch-tall LCD display has an electro-luminescent backlight for easy viewing day or night.

LaCrosse Technology Atomic Wall Clock

LaCrosse Technology WT-3144P Atomic Wall Clock

Framed in a matte, silver-colored plastic, this wall clock measures 14 inches in diameter and looks most at home hanging in an office or business setting. However, this clock’s claim to fame is precision time-keeping and the fact that it never needs to be set. The clock has a built-in antenna system that receives signals from the WWVB radio transmitter in Fort Collins, Colorado, which is in turn is regulated by the atomic clock. Once you install the battery and choose one of four U.S. time zones, the clock automatically sets to the accurate time in hours, minutes, and seconds, and continues to adjust itself six times daily. This low-maintenance clock even automatically adjusts for daylight savings time, so you never need to remember to spring ahead or fall back. This radio-controlled clock is covered by a 1-year warranty and runs on one AA battery.
