Wittime Weather Station Indoor Outdoor Thermometer Wireless Battery Powered, Atomic Clock with Indoor Outdoor Temperature Weather Clock, Dew Mold Heat Index 2180

UPDATE 4/18/2024: i am disappointed because when I went on Amazon to purchase another remote sensor, the catalog page said Amazon didn't know if, or when, the sensor would be available again. I have contacted Wittime to see what I can do about this. i hope they can help. My old Oregon Scientific weather station has failed, and I lost the external sensor (which I believe had a broken radio transmitter anyway,) so I looked and looked some more, and decided on the Wittime 2180. I did so because I liked the barometric display, and it looked like the 2180 would be easy to read (which it is.) This weather station/sensor combo is doing a great job so far. There are a couple things I had to deal with though, when I set it up; both required removing and re-installing the batteries. I live 528 feet above sea level, and it seemed the barometer was reading as if I were at sea level. Digging around in the manual, I found I could press and hold "snooze/light" to adjust the pressure units, and set the exact pressure. It wouldn't let me do anything with that, until I removed and re-installed the batteries. Once I did that, however, I was able to set the pressure to my local forecaster, and since then, it's been extremely accurate (1/100 of an inch off, sometimes.) I installed batteries in the remote sensor, and the base wouldn't read it until I removed and re-installed batteries in the base. Other than that, I'm very happy with this Wittime 2180 weather station. I especially like the barometric pressure history. Also, I live in a condo with brick walls and metal studs, but last night, the 2180 picked up WWV even though the 2180 was 25 feet or so away from a window. I am very happy with that. Hightly recommended!

I had to return my first attempt at replacing my thermometer, so was very apprehensive about receiving and setting up a new one after all prior stress. First of all the box that the product came in was impressive looking and then the directions were very clear and extremely legible, so I did the first step, which was installing batteries in the weather station and the outdoor sensor. I had read reviews that told of needing to manually set the clock the first time even with an atomic clock Station. I had to step away for a few minutes before beginning that time input, and when I returned about two minutes later, the clock was set and perfect all by itself. I was very impressed. I then put the outdoor sensor near my eaves in the front and began watching the temperatures, both inside and outside adjust to what I believe is perfection. There was no work involved at all in setting up my weather station, and I am very happy with it. It’s a little larger than all the others I read about, and that is another huge plus. It’s on a shelf and I can see it while I’m sitting at the kitchen table to keep track of the time and check how I should dress for the day. This is definitely a five star product.

Set up should be a little easier. I got help from my techy 14 yr old grandson and we still had problems getting it to pair, setting the clock and getting the correct outdoor temp. My advice is to just put batteries in both items and set the transmitter outside for at least 24 hours. Over 24 hours later I looked, and all the information was showing up on the screen. The only thing I had to change was the time to Mountain (it had put Pacific) It's only been a couple of days, but the indoor/outdoor temps have been pretty accurate. I was getting ready to return it as defective, but it's been working just fine. So have patience and wait for at least 24 hours before you decide to send it back. The only thing I do not like is that it is hard to see without the back light and when you push the button it doesn't stay on for very long.

The Wittime 2180 weather station provides all the basic indoor/outdoor weather information---without the fancy multicolor, constant backlight, and flashing icons. Included are the usual temperature, humidity, min-max, time/date, and barometric pressure. Also, the remote sensor has good transmission range; the reliably-sensitive “atomic clock” includes seconds; and the barometric pressure a useful histogram. Missing is the moon phase. But what distinguishes the Wittime 2180 is that all of its setting buttons are on the side (not the back), with the alarm buttons on left side separated from the weather buttons on right side. The display is uncluttered, logical, and easily read; and the battery-operated backlight is adequate. In all, the Wittime 2180 functions accurately and reliably as it should---basic, nothing fancy, without any shortcomings. And for that I give it a 5-star rating.

Great price, simple set up, perfect size. Im glad this unit is battery powered. I have no outlet near where I wanted to place it. Working great!!

Here’s what I like about this unit: 1. Large, clear display with well-formed numbers, and it has a light. When activated, the lighted display is bright and easy to read in a darkened room, and easy to turn on with a button on top. 2. The units use AA instead of the smaller AAA batteries, which require frequent replacement. 3. The temperature is accurate, within 1°F of a mercury thermometer. 4. Date/Day/Time (HH/MM/SS) are all on the screen at the same time. 5. I like the barometric pressure trend indicator. It claims to set itself; I don’t know how it could do that, so I set it to match the altimeter setting at the nearest airport. 6. Buttons on the side can be pressed with the unit mounted on a wall, although I would prefer “set up” type buttons to be on the back, out of the way. (See buttonology usability issues below). Here’s what I don’t like: 1. The display is glossy and has a lot of glare (watch the posted videos and you will see this). A matte screen protector for an 8” tablet, cut down to the size of this screen, solves this problem. 2. The “atomic” clock is between one-half and one second fast compared to my four other atomic clocks, consisting of two La Crosse thermometers, a La Crosse wall clock, and an Oregon Scientific digital clock. Those four atomic clocks match each other exactly, as would be expected. 3. You can’t read daily high/low temperatures without pushing a button to cycle through them. I wish they were on the screen all the time, like the La Crosse units I previously used. 4. They could free up space for the previous wish by making the humidity number a lot smaller. I would rather the humidity were not equally prominent as the temperature. 5. The dew point displayed is difficult to use; you have to cycle through the “Mold” menu to get to it, and it replaces the temperature. It would be more useful if it replaced the humidity because dew point is another measure of humidity. 6. There are three channels for temperature sensors; I have two. A minor point: When toggling between them, it should skip the unused channel. 7. The buttonology has some usability issues: a. A single press of the MODE button starts changing the time zone, and that button is in a prime spot that should be taken by a more frequently used button; the upper right. It is easy to accidentally change the time zone. This should be in a setup menu because it is not accessed frequently. b. A single press of the AM/PM button switches between 12 and 24-hour time, also in a prime spot, the upper left. It is easy to change this accidentally. This also should be in a setup menu because it is not accessed frequently. c. The pressure setting button is also an odd button (SNOOZE/LIGHT) and it would be better in a setup menu. d. They forgot to explain what the SNOOZE/LIGHT button does for the two alarms. My observation is that it silences the alarm for about 5 minutes and you can do this over and over. As the documentation DOES say, pressing any other button silences the alarm for 24 hours. 8. The single nail wall mounting is not so secure. I had to add feet on the back or other friction devices to minimize swinging from side to side when pressing the side buttons. 9. The outdoor temperature sensors' single screw mount is also not secure and has a piece sticking out of the back that prevents it from hanging flat. (If that is necessary for airflow, it should have been incorporated better into the case design.) 10. The weather prediction takes up a lot of display space and is not very accurate; weather forecasting is considerably more complex than tracking pressure changes. I would rather have the temperature hi/lo data on the screen all the time. 11. The comfort (how to dress) index is not so accurate either. It could be better if users could set the temperatures that they consider comfortable. The screen space would be better used for other data. All this being said, these units (I got two) come closest to anything I saw on Amazon to meeting my needs, and they are reasonably priced. I expect to keep them.

We have two of these working off one sensor. The sensor appears to have better coverage when compared to our old Oregon Scientific weather stations. Low power consumption and only engages the backlight when the top button is pressed. We tried another brand , and the colorful weather station that stayed lit hurt my wife's eyes, and never dimmed, which was a poor choice for the bedroom in the evening. These are working great. The only (minor) concern is that you have to manually set the time.

I love this Weather Station Clock! Four years ago as I was just turning 60yrs when my Tekmar thermostat of 10 years starts to display an error message (see photo: E01 warning!). I told my Property Manager about it & it turns out that my Property Manager is incompetent by pulling out my Tekmar & replacing it with a HONYWELL thermostat(??). I've had it off since they put in with no results! I must keep all of my windows open all of the time with fans blowing 24/7 to keep my apartment below 80*F some of the time. I tell the P.M. that it does not work & she just mocks me by saying open your windows or go for a walk. My working temperature is 65*F and below & I love it that way. I own a U.S.G.I. Modular Sleeping System for Extreme Cold. Cold air on my forehead is the needed medicine when I have a headache. I resent not having access to this for 4 years!!!! If an AMAZON Attorney could pick this case up & sue my landlord; I would be willing to sign over 60% or more of the settlement over to AMAZON . Thank You!
