Review on ⏰ Accurate Timekeeping and Temperature Monitoring: La Crosse Technology WT-8005U-S Atomic Digital Wall Clock with Indoor Temperature, Silver by Matthew Ciula

Revainrating 3 out of 5

NICE AND GOOD DISPLAY BUT HAS SOME PROBLEMS

Nice watch. Good price. I like the ad; it has exactly what you want. There are legs to stand on a table but now I have it on my wall. Three semi-serious editions, each worth one star because they contradict the product claims. First, it's really hard/difficult to set up. The controls on the back have to go through a long/frustrating series of button presses in exact order and the instructions are difficult to follow, they read like translations. Second, it is not linked to the Colorado atomic clock signal. I've tried various spots in the house, including an upstairs west-facing window (I live in Pennsylvania and there are a few hills nearby), to no avail. The final issue is that it didn't change to Eastern Standard Time when we switched to Daylight Saving Time. I had to manually set it back an hour. One would think that these three problems could easily be solved by the designer/manufacturer, and yet... . . They are there.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Discontinued
