La Crosse Technology 18 Inch Indoor/Outdoor Wall Clock with Temp & Humidity
Keep track of time with the utmost precision while working in the garden, splashing in the pool, or barbecuing on the patio with this 18-inch outdoor atomic wall clock from La Crosse Technology. Radio-controlled by the national atomic clock in Colorado, the clock resets daily to the hour, minute, and second for continued accuracy. Additionally, the clock adjusts automatically for daylight savings time. Equipped with a thermometer and a hygrometer, the clock also assesses and relates temperature and humidity levels to help users protect seedlings from frost, avoid over-watering finicky plants, and take precautions against an icy walkway. Surrounded by a sleek pewter-painted plastic frame, the clock face features black 1-1/6-inch-high numbers for easy visibility. Elegant, black metal hands tick off the hours and minutes. For temperature and humidity readings, the clock face displays two small analog gauges. The hygrometer gauge measures from 1 to 99 percent relative humidity, while the temperature gauge gives readings for temperatures from -10 to +130 degrees Fahrenheit, or -30 to +60 degrees Celsius. On the backside of the clock, the user selects the appropriate US time zone; the clock accommodates Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific times. A manual reset button is provided. To ensure accurate readings, hang the clock in a dry area out of direct sunlight. This clock requires the separate purchase of one AA battery for operation with an optional compartment (2 additional) to extend life of power. A one-year limited warranty covers this item. The clock measures 18 inches wide by 2-1/2 inches deep by 18 inches high and weighs near 6 pounds upon shipping.

Factory Restart
Remove the battery and press Time Set tab 20 times to clear electrical charge.
After 15 minutes, install fresh, new battery. Allow clock hands to spin (12:00, 4:00, or 8:00 position) so it can search for Atomic signal.
Reception for Atomic signal will be strongest in the late evening. We recommend placing clock in direction of Colorado (Fort Collins – WWVB location)
Any atmospheric conditions or electro-magnetic interference may impede on clock’s connection. This may take up to 5 nights to properly set time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works great, all hands line up perfect with the hour

Clock arrived with two chips of paint missing near the top and bottom. I’ve included a photo of one of the chips. No huge deal. If they were any bigger or more of them I would have returned it. One star removed for the cosmetic boo-boos. The material of the clock is plastic but it’s stylish looking.
Instructions are a little off. It states to insert battery, close the battery cover and then push the button to set the time zone you’re in. The problem is, the button is on the inside so don’t do like I did and replace the battery cover only to have to undo it again.
It was about 2pm and the clock immediately went to 4pm on its own. Within 20 minutes, it synced up to the atomic clock in Colorado and the clock set perfectly to my time zone. It’s been working great ever since. I can see the clock from the pool and while doing yardwork now. I really like it!
