La Crosse Weather Station - What to expect.
Good: Pretty, Accurate, Atomic clock, back light, easy to configure.
Bad: Viewing angle, Sensor works only with Batteries in winter.

I did not expect a color LCD at that price, but the colorful background is just a printout on a piece of paper with a normal black LCD as an overlay. I must highlight that the backlight is very well diffused and it does not have any hot spots nor does it look like if it's 4 white LEDS that are lighting the display. The black LCD does not provide a wide viewing angle, but it's acceptable for my application. It works on batteries or provided AC adapter.

I live in Montreal(Canada) and the Atomic clock does synchronize (at my surprise!) but my unit stops responding for a minute when it syncs. But Montreal does get very cold for a good part of the year, that brings me to my worry: the whole sensor needs to be placed outside and it can only operate on batteries. I'm not sure that the batteries will survive very long at -20C. My older station had a remote temperature sensor which allowed me to place the sensor inside the house but place the probe outside.

The advertised animations are just the semi-circle moving up when the sensor selection changes. Don't expect the clouds or sun to dance around !

A great weather station!
At first, I was skeptical that the atomic clock would work correctly because no other atomic clocks worked in our house. I was pleasantly surprised that this one works! Also, the range of broadcast is also fantastic. I wanted a unit that would do pressure, humidity, temperature all indoor and outdoor. This one does it and does it reliably and is visually pleasing. It also works on AC current, which saves on batteries and the lighted screen can adjust to room brightness. Nice feature. The screen even shows you the battery status of the remote sensor!

Great detailed information in colorful special effects!
This unit has all the important information right at your finger tips! I recommend this to anybody that is interested in weather information, this is perfect for measuring the moisture in the air and all the temperature information values, also the heat index is most important on what it (feels like) outside...This unit will let you know on how comfortable or uncomfortable it really is! I also like the special color effects at various temperature/humidity conditions...It's very helpful in forecasting the conditions too at a glance! For all the features you get at a low price, it's really worth every penny on it, so I highly recommend this to anybody that enjoys special weather gadgits like this!!! Enjoy!!!

La Crosse Weather Station
I find the station very accurate in all areas. The setup is easy, although I found I had to do the pressure several times before I got the altitude right. I would also like the ability to change the inside and outside settings manually or automatic. Other than that the only problem I have is when it is checking the time from colorado, it seems to freeze the system for several minutes. But this only happens a couple of times a day. A very nice and easy to read system.
