Newentor Weather Station Wireless Indoor Outdoor Thermometer, Color Display Digital Weather Thermometer with Atomic Clock, Barometric Pressure, Forecast Station with Adjustable Backlight, Black

It’s a great weather station and a value for the money. Easy to set up and to read at a distance. I love the plug in power with battery back up. Keeps the display on for easy reading at night or in the dark. Remote sensor works well and even has a display on the sending unit which is unique for this type of weather station.

I say, "So far, so good", but I just set it up, so... :) ***The Good*** As soon as I unboxed it, I was impressed by it, it was larger than I had imagined. Immediately I placed the batteries inside both the indoor and outdoor compartments, then the fireworks began, well, I mean, the REALLY PRETTY COLORS came on! I like the fact that the numbers and letters on it are large, it makes it REALLY EASY to see! Very nice, especially when compared to my older one (different brand) that I used since 2016, it finally gave up the ghost. It didn't take any time at all for it to recognize the outdoor sensor, on my old one, it took several minutes, so technology is a good thing. It looks like a computer monitor screen, it looks REALLY NICE! _________________________________________________ ***The 'Not So Good'*** (But not really, 'bad') (1) When hanging by a screw that I have in the wall, the inside unit wants to swing when touched, which is NOT GOOD at all, it is NOT SECURE, it just 'barely' hangs on the screw, so, if anyone, especially a clumsy or young person that has too much energy comes along and pushes against it too hard, well, it could sure fall. (This does have some somewhat flimsy 'legs' that pull away from the back like a picture frame has on the backside, so if you are one that prefers it to be on a table or desk, that should suffice IF there are no cats, dogs, or young kids around) I always have some Velcro on-hand, so I placed 'one side' on the back of of the unit, along with the 'other side' of the Velcro STILL STUCK ON IT, then I positioned it on the aforementioned screw, then FIRMLY pressed them BOTH against the wall to ensure that the sticky Velcro is adhered. This is very easy, I'm sure that I make it sound harder than it actually is. Although I don't feel that this is a good design at all from the factory, it is hanging there firm enough that it should not ever be a problem after using Velcro. ***(When changing batteries, you need to unhinge the upper part that hangs on the screw, then gently, not forcefully, pull away from the wall to separate the Velcro)*** _________________________________________________ (2) The outdoor sensor received the same treatment, I placed the Velcro on the backside of it, then pressed it onto my outside wall underneath the eve of the house. I already had a cut-out from a clear plastic bottle (Maybe it was an old ketchup bottle?) that I cut to fit over the sensor to protect it from any rain that 'could possibly' get on it. (This is only recommended, you do not have to do that, it worked for years on my other one) _________________________________________________ (3) The TAB on the back that is where you would grab to lift the battery compartment lid is odd. They expect you to hang it by a screw, I assume, so there is a small opening on the back of the sensor. The TAB I mentioned prevents the sensor from laying flat against the wall, which is a crazy design. When I placed the Velcro on it, it sticks fine to the lid, but when you press it against the wall FIRMLY, that TAB prevents it from being secure against the wall. I could have removed 'some' of the TAB, but I didn't, just be aware of this in case you want it to lay flat against that wall. If your preference is you like the screw method best, it will work, but, a slight knock on it and it will fall onto the ground, hence the Velcro. Be forewarned! There is more good than any bad, so don't let me scare you. I cannot really state what this can do until after I actually use it, that takes time, and when and if something on it goes awry, I will most definitely return here and let y'all know. My first impression of it is, I REALLY LIKE IT! Hopefully it will live up to that. :) (11-17-2024)

Very good device, but doesn't lock onto the cesium clock as well as my old La Cross. Moon phase is off. Date and time is smaller than I would have liked. Otherwise, nice graphics, data seems accurate, sensors and main unit temps are very close. Not a bad unit... just some small complaints.

So far so good. We just use it for a quick reference of some basic outdoor weather stats. Works fine for that and easy to read screen. I happy.

Screen looks amazing - bright and brilliant. Setup was super easy and everything calibrated and was up and running smoothly within minutes. Very happy with this purchase!

Where to start. Biggest disappointment seems to be accuracy. This thing can be fairly accurate one moment and ridiculous the next. I can walk from outside my garage that is warm, to inside which is obviously a sauna, only to see that it reads inaccurate. The remote sensor has some small holes that evidently measure air temp and humidity. From what I gather, they are kept small and few as to avoid issues of it becoming damaged because of weather intrusion. I assume this to be the same for the base as well, though it does have more openings. It appears that both these pieces are more accurate if they are placed in a will ventilated area or out in the open. The remote sensor seems to work more consistently sitting out in the open then it does against the wall 1 foot underneath an overhang. Two obvious problems with the is, rain and direct sunlight. Even the surface you mount it to can affect the accuracy just by how it radiates heat. I have a smaller temp/humidity gauge in the garage and these two are rarely the same or even close. I wouldn’t even really mind as long as it’s consistent off by the same amount of degrees. The other issue I have is the slanted back. I have mine mounted on a garage wall near a cabinet about eye height (also feel this might be contributing to inaccuracy because the lack of air flowing about the sensors). When this is tilted, it can reduce the ability to see the screen clearly. I currently have a larger screw that protrudes from wall enough to allow it to hang vertically level. There is only one key hole to mount it, thus it lets it swing to either side. Having the power cord on one side causes it to weigh it unevenly thus tilting it. The power cord isn't that long, so unless you have an outlet really close, the power adapter at the end will just be dangling making it worse. Wish it would have had a flat back with at least 2 key holes to mount it. I had no issues with it connecting remote sensor to base or with time setting accurately. You can see the screen clearly at most angles but it does have its limits and is worse at certain angles. It appeared to me that when sitting on a table, you could stand above it looking downward and it would be pretty clear. However when at eye level, tilting it back just a small amount made it difficult, thus the issue with the slanted back. It was very easy to set up and use the function buttons. I liked that these were on the side because I saw quite a few other brands that were on the back. Fine if it’s sitting on a table or night stand but not so much hanging on the wall. For my use I would have liked them on the face. I thought the color screen was appealing vs a mono tone variation. I bought this because my clock quit working. I also wanted to monitor the temp and humidity outside which my current model was not able to remotely do. I paint and do different task in my garage that benefits from knowing the actual temp and humidity. It’s also important to know what it’s like outside as well If I need to open the garage door. Outside condition can quickly change inside conditions if not monitored. Only needed the clock, temp / humidity reading inside and out and easy to read at a glance. For the most part it does that. Price is better than most big box stores I looked at. However it needs to be accurate, or at least consistent to be of any use. This may be going back.

This one works well. I had to return another brand, but this is a nice unit giving lots of information for a good price. As with most products from Asia, the instructions are sometimes vague, but it all worked out.

I’ve owned this for several months now and it is a well built product. The documentation it comes with is not the best but it is a pretty intuitive thing that you can figure out on your own. I do like the color screen and it seems to be very accurate. I have had no issues so far. Once you have it set up, it will work fine.

For the record, I currently own 3 AcuRite weather stations and 2 same Newentor weather stations as well. This permits me to evaluate to the best of my knowledge these handy devices. Concerning the Newentor's, they exceeded my expectations considering the affordable price. Take note that at precisely 1H00 AM, 2H00 AM and 3H00 AM, the weather station will synchronize (blacked out display) with the atomic time. This process takes exactly 7 minutes. Viewing the detailed and colorful display will depend on the angle of view. This is normal with all makes of weather stations. Longevity and reliability is being closely monitored and now have 3 months of use on both of them. Be sure to place sensor in spot were no precipitations and direct sunlight reaches it. I personally use a just 1 sandwich bag with rubber bands to protect it from the elements. Humidity readings might affected, but this can be compensated by checking the weather channel reading, and add or subtract for conversion on your weather station. Replace batteries every year, otherwise if they leak, they will destroy your sensor. Only complaints, are the numbers for the time and date are small, and flashing clouds could be annoying. Personally, I got used too it and really not such a big issue on the long run. Cette station météo est très performante considérant son affordabilité. Vraiment surprenante considérant le prix fort raisonnable. Le synchronime avec l'heure atomique se fait ponctuellement à 1H00 AM 2H00 AM et 3H00 AM (écran noir), pour cela exactement 7 minutes. Prière de protéger la sonde extérieur par l'entremise de sandwich bags. Élastiques et tie-wraps font très bon menage pour le mini "emballage" de la sonde. Ensuite, les 2 tie wraps et élastiques vont sceller la sonde correctement face aux éléments. Il est fort probable que la mesure du taux d'humidité soit légèrement eronné, toutefois consulté un site météo pour votre région, et vous pourrez corriger en faisant une compensation mathématique. Remplacez les batteries de la station et de la sonde(s) à chaque année. Rien de pire que des batteries qui coulents une matière abrasive. Bien lire les instructions avant de déduire qu'un problème existe, même si celles-ci sont malheureusement pas disponible en français. La lecture du bel écran détaillé dépend grandement de votre angle de vision. Toutefois, celui-ci est très adéquat à mon humble avis. Je surveille de près la fiabilité et le bon rendement des stations (J'en possède 2 de ce modèle) pour les mois et années à venirs. Maintenant 3 mois d'utilisations depuis leurs achats, et sans problème. Les observation négatives sont que les chiffres de l'heure et de la date sont trop petits, et que les nuages clignotant peuvent distraire. Personnellement, je me suis finalement habitué. Toutefois, veuillez considérer toutes les informations transmis sur ce "grand" écran. André.

Only got 3 stars because of the service, not the product. It’s a great weather station but they sent the wrong mains cable. I needed one for the UK. I tried contacting them but got no response. I kept the station because I can use it with batteries.

Its ok

I found it difficult to set up. It sometimes,for no apparent reason, goes black even while connected to power. The temperature indications are good. The moon phases appear inaccurate. Did not seem to connect to daylight saving

I picked up the Newentor Weather Station Wireless Indoor Outdoor Thermometer because I wanted to know the outside temperature at a glance, day or night. This weather station does that job very well. I haven't had it long enough to judge the accuracy of the forecasting part of the unit as that takes up to 7 days to calibrate itself. I understand why so that's not an issue. I was unable to get the unit to set the time automatically with the WWVB Automatic Time Signal so I set the time zone and time settings manually and all is well. My only complaint and where I think they could have done a much better job is the mounting of the remote sensor. The battery cover of the remote unit has a tab on the back that allows the remote sensor to stand up on it's own, great if you're using it indoors and want to stand it up on a shelf. But to try and hang it up outside in a secure manner, frankly it's flimsy in my opinion. As they provide it, it would simply hang from a single screw much like a picture hook, and in a high wind storm I could see it just blowing off the screw far too easily. My solution was to cut off the reat tab so I had a smooth back on the sensor, then make up a little wooden cradle that I securely mounted to my exterior wall up under the eaves sheltered from the elements and direct sunlight. As you can see from my photos, the unit now just slides in and is held securely. I notched the bottom of the cradle to the air holes are not covered in any way and I get accurate temperature readings. Everything works fine now and I'm satisfied it's held securely, yet I can remove it to change batteries with ease. Overall, other than the remote sensor mounting, it seems to be a great little unit for home.
