Car Dashboard Clock with Automatic Backlight at Night, Fahrenheit Temperature, 12/24 Hour Format Time, Calendar for Car Truck Office Home and Outdoor Camping (Includes Battery)

This is the dashboard clock I’ve been looking for my whole life. Small, elegant. All the info I need at a glance. And best of all it lights up automatically, with a soft blue glow that’s easy to read in the dark. To conserve battery life the light doesn’t jut stay on, the smart design detects darkness then provides backlight with a motion (bump) sensor. When driving at night the movement keeps backlight on, but say it’s dark and I’m napping at a rest stop I just tap it on top and poof the backlight is on long enough to read the screen. There is an internal battery that must be the one charged by the little solar panel on back- this cell keeps the setting accurate while you’re changing the pair of watch batteries it requires. I have been using mine for months and haven’t yet noticed any dimming of screen. Setting is easy and the backlight feature can be switched off if not needed. It keeps good time once set up. My only quibble is the thermometer that only reads down to freezing (32°f). Below that you’re out of luck gauging temp as it stays a consistent 32° even if it’s below zero. Weird to have a thermometer with that limitation frankly. Once above freezing it behaves normally. This came with only a tiny square of sticky tape for mounting, which may work for you. I made a Velcro fastener for it to attach to my dash so I can remove it when I need to change the batteries etc. I highly recommend this clock.

Easy to read and keeps great time. Only problem is it doesn’t stick to any place in my car. Had to put it on my cup holder.

I like this clock. It’s working nicely for me in the school bus I drive. Setting it up is straight forward IF IF IF you read the instructions. They work.Unfortunately, and probably because I’m something of a luddite, I couldn’t get the day of the week to be correct. It turned out to be my fault. I confused the year with a 24 hour format so I skipped over my chance to set the year to 2025. This omission made the day of week function impossible to set correctly.To my embarrassment I’ll admit that I returned the clock because I thought it was defective. The seller couldn’t have made the return easier to do and both the return and the replacement were free. The replacement clock arrived in 48 hours.When I had the same problem with the second clock I realized that I was the problem. I reread the instructions and had no further issues.I had both clocks for a couple days so I setthem side by side so I could observe any unexpected differences. The times were in agreement with each other. The temperatures were in agreement with our thermostat thermometer and the temps on the two clocks were within 0.5°F of each other.

Easy set up. However, although I’ve followed directions, the day will not change. Also, the evening backlight is so bright, all I see is a bright blue light. I CANNOT SEE ANY TIME when it is lit!!! Not satisfied!!

I'm a substitute school bus driver. One bus I subbed on had one of these. It had probably been in use on that bus for several years. I subbed on it for almost a month and loved having this! Usually clocks on the bus are unreliable since there is no backup clock battery for when the vehicle battery is disconnected, so having this separate helps me stay on time for the route. It glows frequently when it's dark, reminding me of the time. The solar panels are nice and seem to work well. When I no longer had it on the bus I was subbing, I had to order my own.I have had some small issues with it but IMHO they aren't a big deal.The adhesive it comes with will eventually fail, and the bottom is smooth making it easy to slide around. My solution for that was a ball of tacky wall mounting putty. That way it sticks well but I can still move it from bus to bus with me.When I ordered my own, it was delivered in my mailbox across the highway. It sat there overnight before I retrieved it. It was a frigid Utah winter night. When I opened the package and turned it on, all that came on was the back light. Disappointed, I assumed it was dead on arrival and that I would have to order a replacement. However, after it was inside for a couple hours and warmed up, it gradually started working. The LCD came on for a couple seconds before shutting off. Then finally it started working normally. I was able to set the time and configure the temp units. Looks like this unit is from ca. 2009 since I think that was the default year.I'm not sure about how often the batteries need to be changed. I would hope the solar panels keep it topped off. But I guess I'll see in a year or two how that pans out.Overall, very happy with this small, reliable clock with no strings (I mean wires) attached.

It should be easier to program.

Work great

It works but doesn't advance the day. I only wanted for time. There is a setting of 2000 after the time that is confusing. It works and lights up. Temperature is not accurate but it's in a car in FL.
