La Crosse Technology Wireless Digital Forecast Station 308-1417BL — Blue LCD, 915 MHz Sensor & 24‑Hour Pressure Graph

La Crosse Technology 308-1417BL is a wireless digital forecast station that displays indoor/outdoor temperature and humidity, a 24-hour barometric pressure graph, and an adjustable backlight with atomic timekeeping.

This compact forecast station combines a bright, easy-to-read LCD with fast 915 MHz wireless sensor transmission for reliable outdoor readings up to 330 feet away. It pairs a main console with one TX141TH-Bv2 wireless temperature/humidity sensor to track conditions in a backyard, garage, greenhouse, wine cellar or other remote spaces. The console supports continuous backlight when plugged in, atomic self-set time with DST updates, and a pressure-history graph to help you observe changing weather trends.

How clear and customizable is the display for everyday use?

The front display is designed for quick at-a-glance checks: large numerals for temperature and humidity, forecast outlook icons with tendency arrows, and a pressure history strip. The backlight has HI/LO/OFF settings when the included 5V adapter is used; on batteries, the backlight provides temporary illumination.

• Adjustable backlight: continuous with AC power, temporary with batteries
• Forecast icons plus tendency indicators for short-term changes
• Temperature shown in °F or °C and humidity in %RH
• Large, legible numerals and segmented pressure graph

What kind of sensors and range does this station offer?

The package contains one TX141TH-Bv2 wireless sensor that transmits on 915 MHz for faster updates and extended range; typical maximum line-of-sight distance is about 330 feet. The sensor supports outdoor readings down to -39.8°F, and its efficient transmission helps prolong battery life.

• Included sensor: TX141TH-Bv2 wireless temperature/humidity
• 915 MHz instant transmission for faster updates and longer battery life
• Range: up to ~330 feet line-of-sight from the base unit
• Outdoor low-temperature capability to -39.8°F

How does the pressure graph and timekeeping work?

The console plots a 24-hour barometric pressure history so you can see trends rather than single-point values, and it shows tendency arrows to highlight rising or falling pressure. Time and calendar are set automatically by the atomic signal; Daylight Saving Time updates occur automatically when enabled, and you can select U.S. time zones.

• 24-hour pressure history graph for trend observation
• Pressure tendency arrows to indicate rising or falling conditions
• Atomic self-set time and calendar with optional DST on/off
• Selectable U.S. time zones for local accuracy

What are the power requirements and backup options?

The console operates with the included 5V AC power adapter for continuous backlight and normal operation; you can add three AA alkaline batteries (not included) as backup. The wireless sensor requires two AA batteries (not included) and is designed for long operational life thanks to efficient 915 MHz transmissions.

• Console power: included 5V adapter required for continuous backlight
• Console battery backup: 3 AA alkaline batteries (not included)
• Sensor power: 2 AA batteries (not included)
• Battery-saving wireless protocol for extended sensor life

Who this product is for: This forecast station suits homeowners, gardeners, hobby greenhouse keepers, and anyone who needs a reliable, wall- or tabletop weather display with longer-range wireless sensing. Choose this model if you want a clear, backlit console with atomic timekeeping, a visible 24-hour pressure history, and a robust outdoor sensor capable of low-temperature monitoring.
