Just curious as to what position (describe it as a clock) and inside/outside did everyone mount it at? I mounted mine at 8 o'clock on the inside.

I mounted it on the 10 o clock position and on the outside, as mounting it inside would obstruct certain operations on the steering wheel. I guess overall it depends on how you want to use the Knob. I like to even place my wrist over it on highway drivings and some regular street driving. Have it mounted on both of my cars and just cannot live without it. Have been using knobs since last 15 years on all my cars.

This was a gift for my husband. He mounted his at 2 o'clock on the outside.

I presume you are using while driving? Probably not the best idea if so. Regardless, tell me where you have mounted it, and at what angle are you viewing it?

are you sure you mounted it correctly??? just saying because i mounted it for my girl friend and it works great...she loves it. when mounting it you don't want it binding.

Its located on the box itself, so I am still working on finding ideal placement for wiring mine since my previous timer was mounted indoors and used a clock instead of a photocell...

Where is it, on the machine? When I turn mine on, it just goes to the timer times. How do I set it to be continueous?

I would guess, it being made of metal, that it would not be long. maybe 5 minutes, tops. my units read 2 degrees F less than the more accurate digital clocks. How much variance are you getting?

Sorry to admit. I haven't installed it. I ordered it last winter and didn't get to it right away and then summer came. You know how it is. Outside taskes took precedence. I will put it in in the fall. Sorry to not be any help.

I found I had to set the temperature a few degrees higher for it to come on. I believe this is because the sensor/antenna is close to the wall. I am trying to remember how the programming works. I just have mine set at 72 round the clock. I will check when back home. But I love this unit! Nice steady heat and electric bill did not go up.

i've been trying to figure out a way to get the clock to display constantly but the only way i have been able to see the clock is if you press and hold down the mod (clk) button on the top left to make it display the time. but it only stays for a few seconds and then reverts back to the radio station or sd card i have in.

The mount *does* save the time (and date)! Sadly this feature (which they call RTC, short for "real time clock") is turned off by default. You just have to turn it on using the handbox: Menu -&gt; Utilities -&gt; Turn on/off RTC. Why they don't turn it on by default, I'll never know.

I ordered mine knowing it was a great deal on the box with a grid and the speedring. That being said, I had a pretty good feeling that the little "goose-neck" stand mount would prove inferior. Boy, was I right. I'll have to post a shot of what I did to mount it. Worked out beautifully in the end. I ended up using "U-bolts" from the hardware store and strapped them around the base to a big bolt flipped upside down. The rest went together no problem... the poles go in the pockets and then into the holes in the speed ring. The speed ring swivels; it snaps into place when you pull up the knob on the black ring. I'll post more later... saw your question and wanted to reply asap. Off to a shoot.... but if you try to support the whole thing with what it comes with, it is never going to happen in my opinion. There is FAR too much weight even before yo attach a flash.

Funny! I have mine in a place where the light doesn't project... I may think about moving it!

You have a couple of choices. There is a side mount or you can make a simple hole with a drill (just enough to allow a screw to pass). And that's it! Simple. It works great and it looks good. Had it for 6 months and still love it.

Yes, it is mountable on the wall. It has a peel and stick it anywhere back on it. I mounted it on the bathroom mirror. It has kept accurate time. After researching the internet, this was the cheapest, large number clock I could locate. I was worried that it may not be a good clock because it was so cheap, however I am very pleased with my purchase.

I sat at my desk in the house and programed it. I have trouble seeing it where it is outside in the pump house. I can then just change the duration times as I need (still a bit hard to see). if it helps the time that first displays is always midnight

Good question! I have no idea. I didn't buy it as a clock, I bought if as a timer so I haven't even tried to set the clock.

Quite honestly, I set the clock ias in the instructions and c a couple of days it needs setting again. i guess it needs seting in advance of ther outing you qare baout to take and i am not sure itr would even last for that. i do like the battery backup in spite of the clock so I will deal with it but they could fix it if they wanted to.
