Umbrella or sunscreen? Take away the guesswork with thiscable-free weather forecaster.

Themain unit, which measures 5-1/2 by 3-1/2 by 1-1/2 inches, supports upto three remote sensors and stands alone or can be wall-mounted.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - avoid this product
They advertised that this thing will transmit up to 100 ft. WRONG. I tried to mount the remote about 40 ft from the indoor receiver and could get nothing. Then I tried moving the indoor receiver closer to the remote (approx 25 feet)- nothing. Both of these applications had to go through a wall and were not line-of-site, which is why I purchased a wireless system.

Then I moved the remote from it location to the outside wall of where I had th eindoor receiver mounted (approx 18 inches ... Read More

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Ok but not perfect
My boyfriend bought this station in July just for FUN. First, I was like what.. [money] for a clock like this?? No way! But, I was wrong¡K after he explained everything¡K ¡§This clock is a weather forecaster, you can get indoor/outdoor temperature and humidity from the senor and atomic clock, good for traveling¡¨ Overall, pretty accurate with the weather forecaster, about 70% correct, that¡¦s the manual said. And like others said thatthe atomic clock works excellent. Cons: should show the ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works well
I purchased this unit from Costco and I have been very happy. I am a bit of a weather station nut and I have accumulated three different models and multiple remote wireless sensors. What I like aboutthis unit is that it gives you a possible forecast through the barometric pressure analysis. It also provides you with the atomic clock time, which is most useful at our weekend place where the power tends to suffer at least one brownout a week. The temperature taking appears accurate and the unit is handsome ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Must have weather guide for people with children.
I just bought the model BAR122HGA for a week and very happy with it. Looks very slick out of the package, the remote senor and the main unit temperature were off by 2 degree when I took it out of the box, but after 15 minutes they were in syn. The atomic clock works excellent, I change the wrong time on purpose to test the feature, after awhile it syn. the correct time by itself. The future weather forecast were mostly correct so far. It is so much easier now to determine if I should give my children heavy ... Read More
