Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Chaney 13131A2 Atomix Dartmouth Digital Desk Clock
Customer Review: Viewing Angle -- Showstopper Problem
Summary: 1 Stars
The basic functionality on this clock is good. I do agree with the previous viewers on the problem of daylight savings time resets. You have to open up the bottom of the clock and press a button to set to daylight savings time -- a manual process.
Having said that, there is a showstopper problem with this clock -- the viewing angle of the digital display is very limited. When it sits on my desk, I cannot read it. The text disappears. I must pick it up and rotate the angle vertically across the horizontal axis to see what it says. This is a constant annoyance -- so much so that I am throwing this clock away and getting a new one. I am amazed that this clock even made it past the design phase with this huge problem.
Description of Chaney 13131A2 Atomix Dartmouth Digital Desk Clock
Using the same technology NASA employs to tell time, Atomix clocks wirelessly synchronize with the National Institute of Standards and Technology's atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado. In addition to daily confirming the time, these clocks automatically adjust for Daylight Saving Time and run up to two years on AA batteries. No wires, no worries, and no more excuses for being late. The Atomix 13131 Dartmouth Desktop Alarm Clock has a black plastic case with what the manufacturer calls picture frame styling. A thin silver bezel surrounds the large, backlit LCD panel. In the LCD panel, the Dartmouth displays the time as hour, minutes, and the date as month, date, and day of week. Displays indoor temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. Large three-inch by five-inch digital display area (approximate) surrounded by black frame and silver border. Electroluminescent light on/off.Kitchen and Housewares
