Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell PCR426W Weather Forecaster with Dual Projection and Atomic Clock

Customer Review: Good projector, crappy everything else
Summary: 1 Stars

As a clock projector, this works well. Plenty of focus and adjustment options. I can see the time and temp clearly on my ceiling. That's about where the good things end.

The goofy cloud/sun indicator is a projection, but you have no adjustment over it. Why not??

The alarm is a joke. It was obviously intended for light sleepers. It has no volume adjustment, and is just a soft beeping.

If you make the mistake of brushing over the TOUCH SENSITIVE ALARM SWITCH (WTF???) you won't be hearing back from your alarm after you hit snooze. Hope you weren't planning to get up on time.

The light sensor doesn't work. When set on Auto, you would think the LCD backlight would turn on when dark. Nope, you have to press a button for things to light up. Real smart.

The projector has no sensor option at all, so it either always on (a waste of energy and bulb life during the day) or off totally (again, requiring you to press the snooze button if you want to see the time on your ceiling...why??)

The weather transmitter unit thing worked one night and I never heard from it again. I brought it back inside thinking it was just too cold for it, but alas, still nothing.

I'm going to read through the (not so great) instructions once more to get the thing to re-acquire (if I remember correctly, having to remove the tiny screws to access the buttons inside on the transmitter), but I suspect reliability is going to continue to be lame.

Overall, I am getting my old alarm clock back out. My whole reason for buying this one was to have the projector feature. I didn't want to have to have seperate devices, but here I am. I should have known better than to assume an all-in-one device might actually work like it should.

**UPDATE** - the projection portion of this unit has now started to fail, resulting in impossible times of 10:76, etc. This is now a glorious paperweight.

Luckily, I kept the box and I am underneath a year warranty, so we'll see what Honeyfail does for me.

Weather

The PCR426W allows you to monitor temperatures in up to three remote locations at the same time, while simultaneously providing you with the most accurate timekeeping available. This system comes with a compact main display unit and a single, water-resistant Honeywell TS13C remote temperature sensor that can be used both indoors and out. And with an effective transmission range of up to 100 feet, you can install the remote sensor most anywhere in or near the house. If you need to know the temperature in multiple locations, you can purchase up to two more TS13C remote sensors and use them all with the same main display unit. The main unit even includes a remote channel auto-scan function so you don't have to cycle through multiple sensors manually. And not only does this system display the temperature, but provides you with a 12- to 24-hour weather forecast with six easy-to-interpret, large graphical icons.

Display

The PCR426W utilizes easy-to-read digits on a bright, red backlit LCD display that allows you to read its information at a glance day or night. The screen displays the current temperatures at both the main display, and the remote sensor location in either Celsius or Fahrenheit depending upon your selection. As an added convenience, this system contains a programmable ice warning alarm, which lets you know when a frost is predicted so you can take precautions. Users will also delight in this system's wide outdoor temperature range, which can range from -38 to 158 degrees F when powered by lithium batteries, making it suitable for virtually any application. Perhaps one of the coolest features on the PCR426W though is its dual projection display that projects the time, graphical weather forecast, and remote sensor temperature on your wall or ceiling. The projection display is operated via touch-key programming, and includes a focus adjustment, an enhanced backlight, and an image control with a 180-degree rotation or flip.

Time

More than just a personal weather station, the PCR426W includes a built-in clock that displays the current time in 12-hour format, and features a light sensor that detects low-light conditions and lights up the LCD display. And this clock really will display the current time, since it receives radio signals from the U.S. Atomic Clock in Fort Collins, Colorado. Not only does it consistently adjusts the clock to within one second of official U.S. government, but automatically adjusts the time for Daylight Savings Time as well. What's more, this clock comes with dual alarms that feature a crescendo tone and a snooze function, as well as a calendar with month and day readings in English, Spanish, and French. As convenient as it is accurate, the display unit fits easily on your desktop and can go wherever you do. The main display can be plugged in to the included AC/DC power adapter to allow continuous projection, or can run on four AA batteries (not included) when you are traveling. The remote sensor runs on two AA batteries (not included), while all units are backed by a manufacturer's one-year warranty.
