Acu-Rite 00786
Wireless Digital Thermometer

With Indoor Hygrometer, Atomic Alarm Clock, Calendar and Moon Phase


The Acu-Rite 00786 Wireless Digital Thermometer with atomic clock displays indoor and outdoor temperatures and indoor humidity along with the time, month, date, weekday, and moon phase. For outdoor temperature, a trend arrow indicates steady, rising, or falling. This thermometer also features a minimum/maximum memory for both indoor and outdoor temperatures as well as for indoor humidity. The outdoor temperature is transmitted to the 00786 from up to 100 feet away by an included remote temperature sensor/transmitter, and this station can work with up to three remotes. You can select °F or °C for the temperature unit on both the main station and the remote. Integral to the 00786 is an Atomix® radio-controlled ("atomic") clock with daily alarm and snooze. The 00786's four-line LCD panel has a soft green backlight for night viewing. Both the main station and the remote can be wall-mounted, or you can extend their fold-out stands for free-standing use.

The Acu-Rite 00786 wireless thermometer is semi-metallic silver and dark gray in color. Its 4-line LCD panel shows the outdoor temperature with trend arrow in the top line and the indoor temperature and indoor relative humidity in the second line. The third line indicates the time as hour, minutes, and seconds. It also tells you when Daylight Saving Time is in effect and when reception of the time-synchronization radio signal from the U.S. atomic clock in Colorado has occurred. The fourth line of the display shows the current moon phase, digital month and date, and weekday. Fairly compact in size, the main station is 5-3/8 inches tall by 3-5/8 inches wide by 1 inch deep unless you extend the integral folding stand that allows for placement on a shelf, table, or desk.


The 00786 wireless thermometer monitors and displays the indoor temperature and humidity plus the temperature in up to three additional locations by means of the included remote sensor and one or two additional remotes, which are optional and sold separately.  Additional remotes will be the Acu-Rite 00911 remote, which has its own temperature and humidity display for local viewing. Maximum range of the remotes is 100 feet (30 meters) in open space with no interference. You can select °F or °C for the display on both the 00787 and 00911 simply by pushing a button on each unit. Remotes should be mounted in sheltered locations where direct precipitation cannot fall on them. Although the remotes are splash-resistant, they are not waterproof. If multiple remotes are used, you can press the CH (channel) button on the main station to select the desired remote or to select an auto-scroll channel display.

Indoor temperature measuring range of the 00786 is +32°F to +122°F (0°C to +50°C). Outdoor/remote temperature measuring range is  -4°F to +122°F (-20°C to +50°C). A temperature trend arrow is displayed on the 00786 for each outdoor/remote-channel temperature. Indoor relative humidity is indicated in percent.

The memory in the 00786 records daily maximum and minimum indoor temperature and humidity values plus maximum and minimum outdoor temperature values for all remotes in use These are available for display at the push of the MIN/MAX button and remain displayed for about 5 seconds. Minimum and maximum temperatures and humidity are stored and updated until the memory is automatically cleared every day at midnight.

The LCD panel on the 00786 is about 1-3/4 inches wide by 2-1/2 inches high. Outdoor temperatures are displayed in bold digits about 5/8 inch tall, and indoor temperature and humidity are displayed in digits about 3/8 inch tall. Tenths of a degree for both temperatures are smaller. Hour and minutes digits are bold and about 1/2 inch tall, while seconds, month, date, and weekday are smaller. The weekday is indicated by a box around the three-letter day abbreviation in English.

Above the calendar data is an animated moon phase display that's a little different from most. The 00786 actually scrolls through eight different moon phases at a rate of one phase per second. When the current moon phase is reached, that phase remains displayed for 5 seconds and then the scrolling continues.

The Atomix clock in the 00786 sets itself automatically and adjusts automatically for Daylight Saving Time. This clock keeps perfect time by calibrating itself to 60kHz low-frequency AM radio signals containing time information supplied by the official U.S. atomic clock source in Boulder, Colorado. The signals are transmitted from radio station WWVB located in nearby Fort Collins. Both the atomic clock source and WWVB are operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, or NIST (a part of the U.S. Commerce Department).

Successful reception of the time-synchronization radio signal is indicated by a radio tower and waves icon just above seconds in the third line of the display. After synchronization occurs, you select your continental U.S. time zone (EST, CST, MST, or PST). If you live in an area that does not observe Daylight Saving Time (Arizona and parts of Indiana), you can manually disable the automatic DST changes.

Time on the 00786 can be displayed in 12-hour mode with PM, or in 24-hour mode. The clock has a single daily alarm that sounds with a 2-minute crescendo pattern. Pressing the SNOOZE/LIGHT bar on the top of the main station when an alarm is sounding turns off the alarm for an 8-minute snooze period. Pressing the SNOOZE/LIGHT bar at any time lights the green LED backlight for the LCD panel.

Calendar and moon phase data are pre-programmed from year 2000 through 2099 (default is 2002). The year is displayed only during manual setup, which is optional. If you do set the clock manually, you'll need to set the time, year, month, and date. The weekday and moon phase update automatically.

The 00786 main unit is powered by two AA (1.5V) alkaline batteries, and the included remote is powered by two AAA (1.5V) alkaline batteries. These are not included and must be obtained separately. Expected battery life is about 1 year. If any remotes will be used in sub-freezing temperatures, lithium AA batteries are recommended instead of alkaline. The display on the remote may fade, but the remote will continue measuring and sending temperature data. When the temperature warms back up, the display will return.

If you need a medium-small and inexpensive wireless digital indoor/outdoor thermometer with some really useful features, the Acu-Rite 00786 may be the perfect choice for both home and office. Use it to monitor the temperature in your baby's room, wine cellar, greenhouse, garage, basement, crawl space, or wherever. This product comes with a 1-year factory warranty.

Note:  This product has "atomic" clock functionality. Atomic, or Radio Controlled clocks receive a radio signal to set themselves. Like any radio receiver however, they may not be able to receive the signal if they are in a building with a lot of steel in the structure, near computers or other electrical equipment that may generate interference, or if the weather is unsuitable. The signal they receive does not propagate well during the day. That's the nature of the signal, not the clock. These clocks are designed to catch the signal when they can, generally in the middle of the night, calibrate themselves, and then run quite accurately for days until they can catch another signal. When you first put in the batteries, they will most likely not set themselves until the middle of the night. That's normal. By morning, weather permitting, it should be correct. Under less than ideal conditions, it could take a few days. Daylight savings time changes may not be made the first night if location and weather are not favorable.
