Janice McLennan: We had our first LaCrosse weather station for almost 20 years and got very used to having it. This one is great too. We live quite a distance from the airport where the Weather Network instruments take readings, and our conditions often don’t jive with the forecast. So it’s great to have accurate temperature, etc. The numbers are big, easy to read from across the great room. When not plugged in, running on (back up) battery only, the display does not stay on all the time. We’d prefer if we could avoid another cord, but plug it in so the display is always on. Love the link to the atomic clock - time is always accurate. Materials seem to be of good quality.

Claus W.: I received this weather station today. Setup was easy and the device looks good. The first thing I noticed when the sensor connected to the base station is that the battery indicator indicated "low" even with brand new, fresh batteries. I tried several batteries from a fresh pack, always the same result. The base station was plugged into 110V via the power source which came with it. The sensor worked flawlessly as long as it was between 1-15ft from the base station. The base station showed a connection with 5 bars. But when I moved the sensor 6ft across my deck and tried to mount it there the base station lost the signal and never regained it. The reach of 300ft is a joke!
I found a way to mount the sensor underneath the glass table on my deck and have now a 5 bar connection and decent temperature and humidity readings. This also provides very good protection for the sensor from the elements. In summer I have sun on that deck for a couple of hours. I assume that skews the temperature and humidity readings during that time. But I can live with that.
What bothers me is the poor signal strength I get when I move the sensor just a few feet further and that the battery level...

Iván S.L.: Hasta el momento parece que funciona bien,solo el reloj no podía configurarlo ya que por internet encontré una explicación de cómo es que recibe la hora y es por medio de una señal en AM muy por debajo de la mayoría de señales en esa frecuencia la señal es enviada de los Estados Unidos de un reloj atómico las funciones de humedad y temperatura en interior y exterior funcionan bien ya las cheque con resultados del servicio meteorológico de mi país.

Héctor García Bernal: Funciona bastante bien sólo que la Humedad relativa no es bien sensada, de repente aparece lluvia cuando esta Seco y Caluroso afuera

Harley RyderHarley Ryder: The La Crosse Technology 308-1414W looked great when received. Read the instructions, plugged in power supply, installed batteries, and waited, temps never changed, both displays read same temp 68.7 degrees with base unit sitting in house and remote transmitter outside (40 degrees)

I waited two days to see if unit would correct itself, but it never changed. I did some online research and read more about the unit. The online instructions go into much more detail, I recommend reading them over the small printed instructions it come with. A lot of technical information is left out of the small printed version.

I did a recommended factory reset, which takes almost two hours to complete start to finish. After following reset instructions to a tee, the unit now works perfectly.

Now it’s just a matter of time (up to seven days or longer) for the barometric readout to stabilize and become accurate. I was expecting this weather station to work right out of the box, but it does take some time to get it set up properly.

I really like the look of the main unit display, the screen is bright and can be read from across the room (35 ft) Setup of time, date, and year...

Amazon Customer: Terrible buy. Cheap quality plastic and it doesn't even come on. Its a very expensive wall clock. I have attached the power cable and it doesn't come on. i hope i can get a refund

Eagle Vision: What is in the box?

Color display
1 external sensor
2 AAA and 3 AA batteries
AC Adapter

Setup

Once the batteries are installed, the system is operational. The display is vivid and bright with 3 brightness levels. The main display works by battery but it also plugs in.

Functions

The internal climate data includes temperature and humidity. The external climate data includes temperature, humidity and predictive weather.
The date and time are also displayed. Alarms can be set for critical temperatures for both indoor and outdoor temperatures. This can also work as an alarm clock which I did not nor intend to use. The sensor has the ability to take additional readings from TWO MORE sensors.

Conclusion

I have been very pleased with the function and brightness of the display. It works very well, though, this season, has not been as cold as last year.
