Sharp Atomic Weather Station Alarm Clock 3.3 5 25 26
Looks Great, but would not recommend This product looks great and seems like a wonderful alarm, but it has some major flaws about it.1st- the beeping from the alarm going off is so quiet that you would have to be a very light sleeper to wake to the alarm.2nd- you can hit the snooze button only 4 times and after that the alarm will reset for the next day and will not alarm again.Pros about this alarm:The temp setting on it is really neat.The 2 alarm set upmoon phase was fun.Big screenOverall I would not recommend this product if you are looking for a loud alarm clock. If you wake up easily than this alarm clock will be great for you! 04/26/2009
Very Good Clock First of all, yes...it runs on batteries only. BUT, for those who are worried about the batteries dying and the alarm failing to sound, DON'T WORRY! I have been using this clock for 3 years. You have plenty of warning when the batteries are getting low, because the display will start to get dim. I have let my batteries get very low, to where the display hardly lights, and the alarm will still sound. The remote works well, although it is sometimes tricky to get working. Be sure you put the batteries in the remote first, then in the clock. I have even used the remote to monitor the temperature in my refrigerator and freezer. It works just fine. 12/04/2009
Don't Buy This - Misleading This clock looks like it has it all, but don't be fooled like I was.1. It runs on batteries only. Plugging it in is not an option.2. The documentation tells you not to use rechargeable batteries. What?3. The screen is not lit up like the picture shows. If in the middle of the night you want to know what time it is, you have to reach out and push the button. No good.4. Even during the day, the display is hard to read. What good is a clock that is hard to read?Don't buy it. I'm taking mine back. 09/01/2009
Love it! On my second one! I absolutely love this clock! I lose power occasionally at my house and there is no convenient power outlet where I keep the clock, so being battery operated is perfect! Also, being able to remove the stand is convenient for traveling. I'm a very heavy sleeper and the alarm wakes me up just fine. I have discipline enough to not have to hit the snooze button more than 4 times, so that's not an issue for me. Even if it was, you can set the second alarm for 20 minutes later. I also feel that it looks very nice. I love that it has two alarms on it! Also, I have the remote thermometer in my dog's house so I know the temp out there at all times. I had one but it wore out through a deployment in Iraq. Instead of buying a different one I searched the internet for the same one because I'm so pleased with it. 10/29/2010
