We have a La Crosse Indoor, Outdoor, Moon, date and day radio controlled atomic clock. The weather display has never worked properly for any length of time and we are fed up with this clock. I have reported this to your tech support and have detailed instructions from Nicole on how to put the batteries in the transmitter first,press the set button 15-20 times, what batteries to use, how to set them apart for 15 minutes... I have had it. Nothing works. Also I do not understand how to change the day; what does U5 mean? This clock has given me nothing but grief.

My National Geographic Weather Station is the opposite. The outside sensor only indicates the temperature, but the single CR2023 battery lasts a year. The inside unit on my desk lasts around 5 - 6 months and lets me know if needs a battery by showing the outside temperature as ' -- '
Although the manual says 'rechargeable batteries are not recommended', I would try 4 Sanyo Eneloop batteries. Or you could contact Acurite Support and ask them if your battery use is excessive?
Here's the manual for the AcuRite Weather Forecaster. If it's not showing the outside temperature, make sure the A-B-C switch is set to match the display unit. Not doing so might be the reason it's not synchronizing and displaying the outdoor temperature. https://www.acurite.com/media/manuals/75077-75107-instructions.pdf
I have three of these WS-916OU-IT units. After a few years, the outside sensor just fails. You will get dashes and a "TR" low battery signal, even if the batteries are good
just buy another whole weather station (short money) and set both the old and new weather station unit to receive from the single new outdoor sensor.
To do this - just follow the procedure for a single sensor - that is - put the batteries in the new sensor - then within 30 seconds - put the batteries in all the weather stations - they will all pick up the same outdoor sensor.
I now have three units running off of one outdoor sensor.
Seems a bit silly, but it works.
