Product Description
The LCD backlight remains on continuously once the unit is powered by an external adaptor and is displayed in Red when the outdoor temperature is higher or equal to 75.2°F, Amber for temperatures between 50.2°F to 75°F, or Blue for outdoor temperatures lower than or equal to 50.0°F. This clock can be powered by 4-AA batteries or with its included A/C adaptor and is designed as a free-standing unit only and cannot be wall mounted.
You'll appreciate both the absolute accuracy and convenient features of the Maverick R395 atomic clock radio. For the time format, you can select 12-hour with PM, or 24-hour. Successful reception of the time-synchronization radio signal is indicated by a radio tower and waves icon above clock seconds. You can select/change your continental U.S. time zone (EST, CST, MST, or PST) at any time by means of a button on the left side of the clock. If you live in an area that does not observe Daylight Saving Time (Arizona and parts of Indiana) you can select the DST/TIME ZONE and +/- buttons to disable DST.
The indoor and outdoor temperature can be displayed in either °F or °C, and both the temperature unit and the 12-/24-hour time format can be changed at any time during normal operation simply by pressing buttons on the left side of the clock. The measuring range of the remote sensor is -58°F to +158°F (-50°C to +70°C), the range of the indoor temperature is -4°F to +158°F (-20°C to +70°C).
You can use the SLEEP function to let the radio lull you to sleep. The radio turns off after your preselected time, which can be 10 to 120 minutes. You can turn the radio off by pressing SNOOZE or RADIO ON/OFF.
The R395 clock operates on AC120V, 60Hz house current and uses a 4-AA batterys (not included) as a power backup during ac power outages or when unplugged. The battery compartment is on the bottom of the clock. Expected battery life depends on the frequency and duration of power outages or unplugged periods.

Nice unit,

This review is from: Maverick R-395 Color-Coded LCD Weather Station and AM/FM Radio with Atomic Alarm Clock (Silver) (Electronics)
I purchased the Maverick R-395 to replace a Oregon Scientific BARM699 Touch-Controlled AM/FM Radio Alarm Clock with Weather, which I found very underwhelming. The Maverick has a constant back light, better radio reception and is much easier to operate. On the negative side, the readout is a little fuzzy, the back light shines through case by the speaker and I think the back light color being based on the outdoor temperature is a little silly. I live in Minnesota, it's going to be blue 8 months out of the year.

This review is from: Maverick R-395 Color-Coded LCD Weather Station and AM/FM Radio with Atomic Alarm Clock (Silver) (Electronics)
The "atomic clock" feature, which I need, does not work despite getting a good signal, and repeatedly following instructions, both day and night. (My Casio watch with same feature does work.)

This review is from: Maverick R-395 Color-Coded LCD Weather Station and AM/FM Radio with Atomic Alarm Clock (Silver) (Electronics)
Did not find this item very easy to use. The time was very hard to set and finally had to do it manually. Would not buy this product again.
