“Outdoor” misleading
Great clock for indoor use. Can only be used outdoors, if kept warm and dry. All advertising states it’s weatherproof. The owner’s manual and manufacturer website state otherwise. Very disappointed as I purchased specifically for outdoor use.
Update (2/6/2012): I also found some auctions for this item here.

not an outdoor produvt
This item, sold as an outdoor device, can’t be left outdoors if temperadture falls to 41 degrees or lower because, as the manual explains, it will not work below that tempoerature. Itis not water tight, either. Perhaps okay for a covered porch in the tropics but not useless in N. America.
Why is it being sold for outdoor use?
I have returned this item.
Actually, I give it no stars.

Nice Clock. Everything I needed to do was insert an AA battery in the IT and in about two hours, they are. It is already hanging out there for about a month now in the rain and heat with no problem. Since I live in the south, which has been quite the test for a clock. No complaints here,.
