Customer Reviews:
- Fantastic - Readable!: This is the first indoor/outdoor thermometer we've had which is readable! Nice big, bold numbers that we can see across the kitchen. We also like the display unit, it looks pretty sleek on our kitchen counter.
The controls are totally cryptic, I can never remember how to set anything. But once you get it going, it looks & works great. - Excellent product; highly recommended!: I can't believe how easy it was to set up the wireless outdoor thermometer. It automatically searched and found it and started showing the temperature immediately. Automatically setting atomic clock is cool, too. Instruction for changing the clock to your time zone wasn't very clear, but once I figured it out, everything was up and running. Can't believe how inexpensive this is for the product that it is.
- Nice and simple: This is a nice basic indoor/outdoor thermometer, easy to setup, accurate, inexpensive. The only thing I'd wish for is probably a backlit display, but that would drain the battery more quickly. Overall, excellent.
- An Excellent Choice: In light of global warming and energy concerns we have been trying to use the forces of nature to help control the temperature of our home. To do this one needs an accurate indoor-outdoor thermometer to determine when to open windows to either cool or provide warmth.
The RMR602A has a conveniently sized outdoor sensor which fits easily in window sills even when the window is closed. The indoor sensor is attractively designed, and the instructions make setting not so difficult. The graphics are well done and the battery case easy to open. Some thermometers provide more data, such as humidity, day, date, year etc. but these functions add significantly to the price. If you are looking for a weather station, the RMR602A will probably not be your first choice.
The special attraction is the self setting atomic clock. It really is self setting and may take an overnight to pick up the signal, but once it gets it, holds it. I'm hoping that the first battery change will not be too onerous. As a rail commuter, I firmly believe that every home should have at least one atomic clock by which to set others so getting one with the thermometer was a big plus.
The item is priced cheaply for its features and the only function that it lacks is an internal light so that one can read its data in the dark - especially as it has an alarm function (not used yet) which might require operation in the dark.
We're very pleased with our purchase. - what i expected, with no problems: the product has worked as excpected and was simple to setup with the included instructions. no problems so far. it is what i expected and performing as described.
