Content: I love this clock. I love the projection (not sure how I lived without it!). I love that it's atomic so I never have to set it. I love that it runs on batteries so it can sit on either side of the bed. I love that the alarm starts out soft instead jarring you awake.
The temperature guage does not work. It's off by at least 5 degrees at all times. I don't use or need that feature anyway, but if it worked, I'd give this five stars.
Summary: Great Clock
Rating - 4 Date: 2008-09-21
Content: This clock is easy to set up. Just read the included instructions. Some negative reviews here could easily be attributable to not reading the instructions. Just read, people!
The clock itself works great. Mine took about four minutes after plugging in to set itself to the atomic clock in Colorado. The time projection is easily readable and unobtrusive. It can also be easily turned on or off with a large switch on the side of the base. I like the alarm. It starts with a slow, steady beep and steadily increases in volume and rapidity until you can ignore it no longer. Snooze works great at eight-minute increments.
I've only been using this clock for a week so I can't speak to its durability, but I'm highly pleased to this point.
Summary: Good clock

Content: I bought this clock for my fiancee as a cool gadget gift. While the alarm is inconsistent and difficult to hear in the morning (compared to a normal alarm clock) the projection functionality and self-setting more than makes up for that.
The clock arrived quickly, and without issue. It'd be nice if they added a note that you have to wait after plugging it in an eventually it'll set itself (as do all atomic clocks).
Overall, we've immensely enjoyed this. In fact, I'm buying one for myself!
Summary: Cool, gadgety clock

Content: i had their 1st gen clock and loved it so when it came time to get another atomic projection clock there was really no other choice :-) the only difference between this and the 1st gen is that this clock now tells you what the indoor temp. is, which is a welcome addition.
there are really only a few minor quibbles that come to mind when considering this clock.
1. if you live outside of the continental united states, the atomic features are absolutely useless (sorry alaska and hawaii, they still haven't thought about you :-/ )
2. the time projection cannot be focused or rotated. the focus isn't really an issue, but to get the time centered on your ceiling you have to turn the entire clock, there is no other adjustment
3. only the time is projected, i've had other clocks from oregon scientific that also cycle the indoor temp. (and date too i think) but this one uses the projector strictly for the time.
4. when only running on battery power, there is no way to keep the projection on or keep the backlight on. this is kind of a pain if there is nowhere to plug in (if you choose to take the clock with you on vacation or camping or whatever) since you'll have to hit the snooze button to check what time it is.
overall, still a great clock that i would easily recommend as long as those 4 issues would never or rarely apply to you.
Summary: 2nd atomic projection clock
Rating - 3 Date: 2008-08-25
Content: Love the easy to read numbers projected on the ceiling. Two things I miss, #1. not having the clock face itself backlit all the time, and #2, not being able to adjust the projection angle. All in all, a decent clock though.
Summary: Good, but not perfect
