Amazon.com Review This versatile system forecasts local weather; automatically sets and updates the time, day, and date; keeps track of the indoor temperature; and employs a remote, wireless sensor to record the outdoor temperature up to 100 feet away. For forecasting weather within 12 to 24 hours, the 6-1/4-by-4-1/4-inch monitor employs a built-in electronic barometric-pressure sensor and then displays the upcoming weather with an icon (sunny, partly sunny, cloudy, rain/snow) on its backlit LCD screen. For keeping track of time, the monitor is equipped with a radio receiver tuned to the U.S. atomic clock; this enables the monitor to maintain split-second accuracy by automatically adjusting, if necessary, to the atomic clock's signals six times every 24 hours. From those signals, the monitor also displays the date, the day, and the time zone for which the user has set the clock. Also, the clock automatically adjusts for daylight saving time and for leap year. The monitor beams the time and the outdoor temperature onto a wall or ceiling in large, red numerals for easy readability. If the monitor is in battery-mode (four AA batteries included), pressing the clock's snooze bar will beam the data for five seconds. If the monitor is plugged into a wall socket with an AC adapter (included), the projection will be available either for five seconds with the snooze bar or continuously if a continuous-beam control is set. The projection beam comes from a device mounted next to the clock. The device pivots so the beam can be projected onto any surface, and a dial focuses the beam for clarity. You can also choose to have the temperature displayed in either Celsius or Fahrenheit. --Fred Brack

Grandpa likes it! September 1, 2008 I bought this clock for my grandpa for his birthday and he loves it! Says it works great and enjoys being able to tell what the weather will be like when he first wakes up, lol.
atomic clock August 30, 2008 atomic clock.
pros:
accuracy. got to have at least one clock in the house as an impecable time machine.
spotlighting of the time and temp on the ceiling in big red numerals certainly gets your attention at 3am. makes me laugh and shake my head. great idea.
cons:
five second backlight is too short. ten seconds would be better for us smooth brain old guys.
the alarm sucks, again for us older dudes. my wife, three rooms away, said "is that the alarm?" i had the clock up to my ear and said "what alarm?" i mean she has dog ear hearing, and i don't. hmm, i mean that in a nice way. i suggest the manufacturer crank it up a cuasimoto(sp)or two (humped back ND bell ringer) for us slightly hearing challenged people and heavy duty sleepers.
overall, i do like the device and would buy it again for the accuracy and the red numbers on the ceiling.

Good Product! July 24, 2008 This is a very good projection clock. I have been nothing but pleased with the operation. The remote weather sensor is a great added feature. It's nice to be able to look up in the morning and see what the temperature outside is.
Overall Very Good product at an excellent price.
Very well designed wireless weather station July 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The weather station is very accurate. The projection output includes focus and positioning adjustments that satisfy all viewing needs. It is attractive and can be placed in a variety of locations. The graphic forecaster is simple, fun and surprisingly correct. I am very pleased with the purchase.
Oregon Projection Clock May 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have had one of these clocks for 7 years and one day it finally needed to be replaced. I had become so use to the conviences of this clock (time, temp - inside and outside) that I set out to find another one. Dealing with Amazon.Com is always a good experience. The clock was shipped immediately and delivered quickly. The Oregon Scientific Projection Clock is the only projection clock I would ever want to own. It is easy to use and always dependable.
