The WX-150 also features an easy-to-read digital LCD screen that normally shows you the time and date, but during emergencies has a scrolling display of pertinent message information. The First Alert WX-150 is wall mountable so it never gets misplaced, has battery back-up protection in case of power outages, and is backed by a manufacturer's 90-day warranty.
