The temperature station receiver features an adjustable LCD screen, which relays conditions including the time, date, indoor and outdoor temperatures, and the minimum and maximum temperature recordings. Temperatures can be displayed by either Fahrenheit or Celsius degrees, while time of day can be viewed in 12- or 24- hour formats. To monitor outdoor conditions, a LaCrosse TX6U sensor is included. The sensor transmits information to the receiver from up to 80 feet at a 433.92MHz frequency. Transmission through walls reduces this range. While the sensor fares well in fog or mist, shelter it to prevent rain damage. The temperature system measures temperatures ranging from +32 to +140 degrees F. The outdoor sensor registers temperatures ranging from -21.8 to +157.2 degrees F. With a radio-controlled time and date function, the temperature station automatically updates for Daylight Savings Time or travel to a new time zone. The temperature station hangs or can stand upright on a tabletop. The outdoor sensor comes with a mounting hardware. Separate purchase of four AA alkaline batteries is required to power the temperature station and sensor. Replace batteries annually for best results. The weather station accommodates up to three outdoor sensors. LaCrosse encloses a thorough manual for setting up the weather station. This product is covered under a limited one-year warranty. The base monitor measures 5-2/3 by 3-1/45 by 1-1/4 inches while the sensor is approximately 5 by 1.5 by 4/5 inches. This item weighs 2 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

Content: I already have three LaCrosse Wireless products in my home that I rely on everyday. I have found LaCrosse products dependable, and accurate. (No, I am not affiliated with this company, just a well satisfied customer!)

This compact unit was a gift for my 85 year old father. It was easy to get up and running, and is easy to read.

This is an excellent way to help keep our elderly parents oriented to date, time, and weather conditions...and perhaps help ease the "technophobia" of our aging population!

Content: If there is one thing I have learned it is that old people are infatuated with the weather the way toddlers are infatuated with poo.
Buy one for an old person you love today!

Content: This item works great. It accurately tells me how warm it is inside, and how frigid it is outside when I take the dogs out. Of course, I want to smash it with a sledgehammer when it tells me it's 3 degrees at 5:30 am, but what can ya do? I'd recommend it if you're looking for a good indoor-outdoor wireless thermometer.
Summary: Works great, makes me cringe when I walk the dogs
