wwc96wwc96: I wanted a nice new outdoor weather station that sends the info inside to a panel on my wall. I looked at lots of options from those things that need wifi down to the old black/white displays that just have a simple sensor outside.

I chose this great model because I have used La Crosse products for years and thing they are very durable and reliable. This particular model has a super clear, color-coded interface that shows me all of the important details at just the right size and emphasis on the screen.

So far things look to be super accurate and always updating with moon phase, upcoming weather, current pressure w/history, time/date of course, humidity and temp in and out.

The only think I wish this had was a display on the outside unit, just for convenience, so keep that in mind if that is a sticking point for you. Also note that to get all of these super colorful displays, you need to plan to plug this up on the wall. Wires don't look so great but it is worth it to me.

Chris M: Over the years I have purchased several La Crosse temperature monitors. This is the first one I have bought that includes a barometric pressure and a pictorial weather guide as well. Everything seems to be working well. My only complaint is that the brightest setting is not bright enough for the time of day that has sunlight streaming in through the adjacent window. Otherwise; an overall good product.

karine: La lecture est facile, car l'écran est d'une bonne dimension. Les graphiques sont correcte sans plus ni moins. J'ai configuré la station et cela à été très facile, mais il faut être patient, car comme c'est écrit dans le manuel, la station doit prendre un certain temps à s'adapter pour fournir les informations plus précise. Un seul petit problème que j'ai constater, j'ai remarqué une journée que la date n'était plus bonne elle avait prit 4 ou 5 jours de retard. Je l'ai reconfiguré et pour l'instant cela tient la route, on verra dans le futur, mais c'est une bonne station météo pour le prix.

Bobcat00: I'm very happy with this unit. I got it to replace an older one that only did temperatures and didn't have an automatic time setting. I wanted this one because it included indoor and outdoor humidity and set the time automatically. The barometer and phase of the moon are bonuses.

A nice feature is the ability to display the outdoor dew point, which is helpful for determining how comfortable it is outside. It is necessary to press a button every time you want to check the dew point.

The unit itself is compact and takes up very little space on our kitchen counter. Note that you'll want to have it near an electrical outlet to plug it in.

The barometer claims to be self-calibrating, but even after waiting 6 weeks, the pressure didn't match the official weather station at the local airport. So I set the reading manually (see the instructions) and now I get accurate values. Most people won't really care about this. Also note that the granularity of the barometer is 0.03 mmHg. e.g., it will read, 29.97, 30.00, 30.03, etc. So if you set the pressure manually, do it when the pressure adjusted to sea level is a value such as those.

Amazon Customer: Nowhere in the product descriptions did the Seller warn buyers that the power converter plug (supplied as USA 2-pin when unpacked) is NOT SUITABLE in countries where mains electric power is delivered at higher voltages. In other words, the product as described and as supplied is NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE in the United Kingdom … other than on batteries ONLY. I did not want to purchase a weather station that relied solely on battery power!
The product description needs serious amendment to make this clear. As it is my converter plug has blown and is useless. VERY UNHAPPY with this!

Jaquo: The item was received at the date mentioned. However, after opening the package we discovered that the monitor has to be plugged in to see the display. Or else, there is a button behind the monitor which may be hard to reach. Once lit up, the display is hard to see due to the brightness. The item was returned and we ordered the same monitor however, no color.

. Recomendable

M. J. Civello: La Crosse has several layouts with similar info so you can pick what you want to look at. I chose this one for the emphasis on the outside temp. I can see that from afar. Time is tiny... don't get this one as a clock. This one has a couple extras which tipped the scales. Moon phase is a bonus, pressure graph is a bonus. But that's a personal preference.

Tech setup was great after battling my old Sharp wx station every time the remote unit needed batteries. This one... insert batteries and it works. Did a quick roll through the settings and we're up and running. Nice to have some feedback on both ends too. Red light on the remote and signal strength on the display.

Can't speak to the range as I'm not taxing it much. Remote unit is 10' away with one external wall between.

Now to see if it lasts.
Opportunities for improvement:
- Backlighting has two settings (plus off) that are too far apart in my opinion. Super bright glowing like the sun, or barely on and worthless unless you're sitting in a pitch dark room. I'd set it somewhere between if I could but I'll live with the glare of the max setting.
- When you have an atomic clock, accurate to the fraction...
