good looking base unit with a clear, easy to read screen. The base can be powered by batteries and in this mode the screen goes to sleep, the backlight turns off, but you can still see some details. To activate it, touch at the bottom of the screen. Powered by the USB-C port, the screen backlight stays on and has three levels of brightness. The clock is set by radio and should therefore be accurate. If there are problems with signal reception, it can be set manually. It also shows the phases of the moon along with an indication of the possible weather (I think that can be deduced from the pressure, temperature and humidity conditions). One sensor is included in the box, but it supports up to three. The sensor will automatically sync to the base, but this can be done manually if required. The remote control also shows the temperature and humidity on the built-in display. The base displays the indoor temperature where it is located and the temperature where the remote control is mounted. The remote control can be operated perfectly at a distance of more than 20 meters from the base. Note that the remote control is not waterproof and therefore needs to be protected from rain etc. There are a number of buttons on the top of the base for settings etc including an alarm clock function if you want to use it as an alarm clock/weather station for your bedroom. The kit appears to be well made from good quality plastic including the remote control. Batteries are not included with the station, so you will need 5 AAA batteries.
