La Crosse Technology Wt-8005U-B-Int Wt-8005U-B Atomic Digital Wall Clock With Indoor Temperature, Black, 8.95

Good but the auto time setting is not working in UAE. Maybe it is for USA. But good as general clock with Manual setting

Bought this product for its ability to sync with the atomic clock signal. Unfortunately it wasn’t syncing; possibly due to no such signal in the current geo.

Purchased to replace my trusted old Atomic clock (different brand) that worked for 5+ years. Good and no frill design. Bought it at around $20. Positives --------- - Large and high contrast display, easy to read from far across a room - Receiver is more sensitive (getting atomic clock signal immediately and during the day, when my old one was only correcting at night (Atomic clock RF signals travel better at night) about 10' from the nearest window). BTW, if you want to get the right clock immediately and during the day, go near a window with clear view to the outside and press clock sync button on the back for manual sync. - Easy to follow instruction, and the web address for the instruction is printed right next to the battery compartment (handy, since we need to refer to instruction when we change the batteries) - Simple timezone setting (one button to toggle four USA time zones) -- more on this on Neutral (below) also. - Daylight Savings Time reflects the correct calendar period -- some of the older products somehow does not understand the new daylight savings time period in USA, but this one does. - If you care about accuracy of the temperature display, mine was correct within 0.5 oF, compared to my lab instrument -- your clock's accuracy may vary :-). Negative ---------- - Instruction is not clear for the first initialization. Could only select the timezone AFTER the clock searched for the Atomic clock signal... (a few minutes), but the instruction does not say that. I thought I had a faulty unit at first. Better instruction needed. Neutral -------- - MAKE SURE that you plan to use this clock in continental USA (ONLY the 4 time zones, Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific). But then again, I don't think you could receive the atomic clock signal if you are outside of these zones in North America. Helpful Hints -------------- - Fold up the instruction booklet and tape it near the battery compartment on the back -- you'll be glad you did in about 18+ months. - I am a big fan of Atomic clocks -- one in almost every room in my house -- and found that most of the external temp sensor version needs battery changes every 6 month or so, while the non-external temp version, like this one, needs battery change every 12~24 months (all using alkaline batteries). So I use rechargeable for the clocks with external temp sensor (both the clock and the sensor) now, and alkaline batteries otherwise.

Fácil de configurar, buena recepción de la señal para sincronizar la hora, tamaño justo para poder leer claramente el display.

Very poor viewing angles. Too small for a wall clock.

it's very accurate since it syncs with the server. It's critical to us in the morning rush hour as every minute counts and the old style clock just doesn't give me the accurate min, not to say the sec. It doesn't sync successfully every day with the server, depending on weather I guess, but it syncs about 5, 6 times a week which is more than enough. For the days that it didn't get sync with the server (you will know by the disappearance of the 'signal tower' icon on the upper-right corner), I compared the time on it with what I got from my phone and the difference is always less than one sec. It doesn't glow in the dark which is fine for me as I don't want it to be too bright to disturb our sleep. Overall it's a good item to have, if you care about the accuracy and min/sec of the time.
