Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Taylor 1462 Wireless Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer, Clock, and Forecaster-Silver and BlackCustomer Review: Recommended Summary: 5 Stars
Already had one of these for several years. For some reason, the wireless reading no longer worked. We bought another one as we've been very happy with it. The new remote sensor is greatly improved as it now has two batteries instead of one and includes a channel selector, metric/Fahrenheit button, and transmit button. The old sensor had none of these. I would use the chord that came with the remote to place the sensor outside, thereby keeping the remote inside (along with the batteries). I think the batteries and sensor will last much longer that way. I've run mine through a window/screen for years and it works well this way. The chord is thin enough to still allow a tight seal on your window.
If I had a complaint, it would be that it's made in China. That, and the remote sensor requires a very small screwdriver to get at the battery compartment. For a time/temp clock with outdoor/indoor temp and indoor humidity, highly recommended.
Description of Taylor 1462 Wireless Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer, Clock, and Forecaster-Silver and BlackTaylor Jumbo LCD Weather Station with baronic forecast,animated forecast icons,wirelwess remote temperature,indoor temperature and humidity Don?t let its looks fool you. This forecaster may appear at first glance to be nothing more than a high-tech clock. However, upon closer consideration you?ll discover that its sleek, jumbo-sized display unit conceals the functionality of a sophisticated weather station. This wireless gadget measures and tracks outdoor and indoor temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure, plus displays date and time of day. It includes one indoor/outdoor wireless transmitter with an LCD temperature display and a transmission range of up to 100 feet. (For the truly weather-obsessed, the system can be expanded to three-channel use by purchasing additional transmitters, so users can simultaneously monitor temperature in four different locations: outside, in the nursery, in the spa, in the wine cellar--the possibilities are endless.) A main receiver unit shows trend indicators--upward, downward, and steady--for all functions, while a min/max recall feature stores daily highs and lows for temperature and humidity. Forecast icons--sunny, partly sunny, cloudy, rainy, or stormy--predict weather conditions 12 hours in advance based on changing barometric pressure. The unit is powered by four AA batteries and includes a convenient, low-battery indicator. This item is covered by a one-year, limited warranty --Mary Park
