Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Whether mounted indoors or outdoors, this 18-inch round analog wall clock reports the time, temperature, and humidity at a glance. This clock’s claim to fame is its precision time-keeping and the fact that it never needs to be set. A built-in antenna system receives signals from the WWVB radio transmitter in Fort Collins, Colorado, which is in turn 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 secods, 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. As an additional perk, the clock features in the lower left area of the face a hygrometer that measures the percentage of relative humidity in the air. The lower right has an analog thermometer that reports the temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. This radio-controlled clock is covered by a 1-year warranty and runs on one AA battery (not included). --Cristina Vaamonde

"Outdoor" misleading,
By Diane (Alabama) - See all my reviews
This review is from: La Crosse Technology WT-3181P 18" Outdoor Atomic Wall Clock with Temperature/Humidity (Kitchen)
Great clock for indoor use. Can only be used outdoors, if kept warm and dry. All advertising states it's weatherproof. The owner's manual and manufacturer website state otherwise. Very disappointed as I purchased specifically for outdoor use.

not an outdoor produvt,

This review is from: La Crosse Technology WT-3181P 18" Outdoor Atomic Wall Clock with Temperature/Humidity (Kitchen)
This item, sold as an outdoor device, can't be left outdoors if temperadture falls to 41 degrees or lower because, as the manual explains, it will not work below that tempoerature. Itis not water tight, either. Perhaps okay for a covered porch in the tropics but not useless in N. America.
Why is it being sold for outdoor use? I have returned this item. Actually, I give it no stars.

Misleading description of clock!,
By
This review is from: La Crosse Technology WT-3181P 18" Outdoor Atomic Wall Clock with Temperature/Humidity (Kitchen)
I purchased this particular clock because it was described as an "Outdoor" clock. Upon receipt of the clock I read the instruction book and under the section entitled "Frequently Asked Questions" is the following:
"Q. Can a La Cross Technology clock be used outdoors? A. Yes, but only in a dry environment and in a temperature range between 41 F andd 131 F. This clock is NOT water-resistant." Living in New England, we do get rain and snow and the temperature is frequently below 41 F. The clock has a VERY misleading description!
