cumbersome operation of the timer

But the selection of a timer is cumbersome: Because the appliance has 3 timer & stopwatch and the MODE button one direction only can you often by 3 other stations press MODE to get out the desired timer. Costs another star.

In detail: from 1 to 2's is of course directly with 1xMODE but from 2 to 1 you go through by 3 & stopwatch, so hit 3 times. If one (usually) only uses a timer, but the problem does not occur. A timer is alone including memory to operate without detour.

Those who think that this is clear anyway, is the Oregon Scientific WB 388 3-Timer watch. The manages almost maximally complicate the use of a timer with memory: Since all timers are always set to the same memory while all stopped!

And another difference in memory: When TFA 38.2020 Substituting the explicit memory value. This has the advantage of being between times can tap a different value manually in the timer and later the previous memory value can recall. The WB 388 on the other hand simply takes the last set value per timer and sets it on request. So you can not set a timer value in between and keep the previous memory value for later.

Sounds like minor details, but several times a day with timers used to such strange properties läppern.

Too bad that you can not find user guides from Amazon. You could save yourself some test.

Positive is the supply by AAA battery and not by button cell as in WB 388. And the magnetic holder.
