Oregon Scientific BAR688HGA Wireless Weather Station with Temperature/Humidity Display and Self- Setting Atomic Clock, White customer reviews:

Works perfect for my implementation      While others review saying the unit can not be wall mounted is correct, it's not an issue for me.
I am using this item, along with an additional wireless unit, to monitor temperature and humidity in a cabinet/vinotemp humidor.
It lets me monitor my conditions without having to open the door to check things.
Immense peace of mind and the perfect solution. Excellent price and free shipping to boot. Doesn't get better than that.
does all it's suppose to!      Price is right for the quality and information this little weather station provides. It is very accurate [I checked against three other weather thermometers]. Very easy to set up and read. Looks very stylist on my desk. Would recommend it to anyone who wants simple weather information with ease of use.
Better weather forecaster.      This unit is very good. It shows temperature and humidity indoors and out plus atomic clock with date and time. One of the best values of it's kind.
Poor forecasting      I use this product for preparing for outdoor exercising and also for recording the weather in my log. Its sensor gives accurate readings for temperature and humidity. It also has forecasting capability, which, according to OS customer rep, is about 75% accurate. Personally, I've experienced a 60% accuracy rate with some ridiculous forecasts. One Saturday in August, it was raining rather heavily but the weather station showed just clouds no rain drops. Yes, it will show rain drops when it senses rain. There were several other isolated instances when it showed the rain drops but it was sunny and dry. I guess that when the humidity reaches a certain level that will trigger the rain drops regardless if the sun is shinning. It also provides a heat index reading which advises you to take it easy when planning activities. Various arrow indicators inform you of climatic changes that are either increasing, decreasing, or remaining constant. The atomic clock works very well but I've seen some concerns about it from other buyers. The weather illustrations are a nice touch as one, depending on the forecast, will see clouds/sun, sun, or all clouds. Maybe I will even see snow flakes when the winter arrives in a few more months. For my purposes, it is a sound purchase as I enjoy tracking my daily exercise performances under different weather conditions during the year. In addition the date and time is also easily readable if you're doing clerical chores. If you're interested in it for forecasting information, well, forget about it, especially when it shows no rain when it's actually raining quite heavily!
returned      Base Unit would not work. Also be aware of "no rechargable batteries" and you will need a micro screwdriver to put toghter.
