Good Alarm Clock Overall

Have had the Oregon Scientific projection clock for a little over six months now. Has held up extremely well, despite the abuse and riggors of three kids who like to bump it around and play with it from time to time.

My projector stays on all the time and does not interfere with normal sleep patterns. After the first week or so you get used to it. Only problem is that you cannot rotate the projection display ... only flip it ... which somewhat limits the clock's orientation. A photocell is supposed to turn the projector off during the day, but my bedroom never gets bright enough to accomplish this ... so the projector basically stays on all the time.

The LCD display is WAY too bright ... such that I keep it turned OFF. Problem being that, if it's off, you can't see the clock during the day. If it's on, however, you can't sleep at night. I choose to keep the backlight turned off and therefore can't see my clock display during daylight hours. Would be nice if the clock could turn on it's LCD backlight during the day and off at night automatically. Oh well.

The atomic time reception works well. It will occassionally experience poor reception during the day, and incorrectly reset the clock, but I've only had this happen maybe 3-4 times since I've owned it. Figured out you can disable then re-enable WWVB reception using a key sequence, and within a minute or two the correct time will come back. Much easier than trying to remove and replace the batteries to promote a time sync.

Wireless outdoor temperature works great. Never a problem.

Spouse likes the projection feature a lot ... as she can easily see the time and outdoor temp at night, on the ceiling, with no need to try and look (over me) at a clock on my side of the bed.

Alarm clock works well, and auto resets itself daily. Only thing it needs is the ability to set specific days (ala M-F) instead of always being on or off.

While there are a few things that could use improvement, overall I like the clock a lot. The projector, WWVB time sync, and outdoor temperature are features that I've come to really enjoy. Could care less about waking up to FM, CD, or MP3 ... so the clock works really well for me.

Clock with in/out temp

While the clock is great and seeing it in the dark is the best, it tends to reset itself to a different time zone at times for no reason. Not sure if there is a way to overide this. We have two of them and if this did not happen we would give it a 5 star rating.

Bright, but good

Bought this clock in order to get an outside temperature reading display. The wireless sensor works well, but it did lose the signal for awhile. Shutting off the clock and restarting fixed that. I am not using the atomic-clock radio link, and it keeps time fine.

My only issue is the brightness of the projection display... it is BRIGHT. Since our ceiling is white, the bright blue display actually lights up the entire room at night. It takes a few nights to get used to. I tried putting a filter over the projector, but it didn't cut the brightness enough.

Lastly, it would be nice to have the backlight come on automatically in daylight, just like the projector comes on automatically when lights are off. Otherwise, a great clock - works well, looks good, reasonable price.
