Tools and Hardware Reviews of Equity 31038R LCD Calendar Alarm Clock with Temperature (Red)
Customer Review: Misleading description
Summary: 3 Stars
I just bought this item from J&R Music World. The first thing to know is that the description "Metallic Red Case" refers to the color/hue of the clock and not its composition, as it has an all-plastic body made in China and no metal components at all (at least on the outside).
Something else to know is that this alarm clock requires three (3) AA batteries and does not have an AC electrical cord to plug in. This makes it incredibly portable, but necessitates having fresh batteries on hand.
In addition, the superglow (Indiglo-like) blue backlight display effect seen in the product picture can only be achieved by holding down the Snooze/Light bar which quickly drains the batteries, so use this feature sparingly. Otherwise, the display is normal black alpha-numeric characters on a gray LCD background that cannot be seen in the dark (as opposed to, say, an LED display).
Furthermore, the temperatature sensors on both [lateral] sides of the clock are sensitive, so if you place it next to a heat-producing source (like a lit incandescent lamp, set-top box, desktop Computer CPU, hot coffee mug, etc.) the temperature reading will be inaccurately high.
Other than these issues, the Equity Digital LCD Calendar Alarm [Clock]with Indoor Temperature works as just as advertised, but I gave it only three (3) stars because I strongly feel that the description is very misleading. Caveat emptor.
