 Digital Dashboard Compass & Weather Station Average Rating: 3.0 Total Reviews: 5 More Information
On: 2008-05-14
Cons: Too bulky, not designed for car. No wireless outside temp sensor. No instructions on how to set up and read barometer. An alarm clock?? In a car?? What the heck for??? How about an altimeter instead??
Pros: Good for bedside clock. Gives you quick weather forecast when it wakes you up in the morning. Compass can help orient you toward the bathroom.
Bottom line: Id rather save my money for a real multi-function compass/barometer/altimeter watch which I can take with me anywhere.

I purchased this particular compass because it was advertised as having an altitude. Having just traveled to the mountains for the first time, I thought this would be great to have. So I purchased it for my husband for Christmas.
There is no altitude measurement dial, so that is a disappointment. But, the compass, weather, and temperature readings are accurate. It is nice looking as well. On: 2008-01-07
The system is a battery eater, especially in colder weather. Not a good choice for Minnesotas winters. Like the displays. On: 2007-12-20
If you look at the product manual for this from the Sharper Image site, this unit operates between 32°F to 140°F (0°C to 60°C). In NY this will never be good enough as this wont operate 4 months out of the year.
The outdoor temperature probe is also NOT wireless so youll have to run a wire that will likely be susceptible to corrosion. On: 2007-06-29
