Review on SMARTRO Projection Thermometer Bedrooms Operated by Steven Latham

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not very impressed, updated.

Bought to replace a dead watch with similar characteristics. Pros: Very bright overhead display. (almost too bright) Lots of features you need. battery backup. minuses. Very confusing controls. Worst thing I've ever seen. I feel like a store bought alarm clock from the 1970s. The WWVB radio is not strong enough to pick up the signal. All other WWVB watches I have can do this, but this one doesn't. My remote temp didn't work right away. Super small watch for what it is. The smallest I've ever seen. It looks bigger in the photos here. The display goes blank when trying to receive a WWVB signal. The?!?! Why?!?! All in all, I'm considering returning this watch. I'm starting to think nobody makes a good bedroom alarm clock anymore. At least not on Revane. Very disappointed. UPDATE: Suddenly this company sent me a new watch without my knowledge. Although this may seem normal, now please don't leave me alone and ask me to update my review to get a higher rating. I'm sorry I won't. The clock is still difficult to work with and I really hate that it rings when I try to update the clock via shortwave radio, which still can't be completed. Her shift guard didn't pick up a signal either. This double stinks because now I will be forced to manually change the clock to daylight saving time twice a year because they don't read the radio signal and they are very difficult to work with. The only good news is that the external timer finally works with the original watch. YMMV but I found this watch disappointing.
