Review on MARATHON Digital Atomic Alarm Clock: Ideal Bedside, Desk, and Hotel Companion with Heat, Comfort Index and Backlight by Karen Avance

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good atomic travel clock with several good functions

This is a very good atomic clock. The addition of a comfort indicator is welcome. Temperature and humidity are also welcome. I like the signal strength indicator. It's very useful. However, there is a problem with the alarm function. The instructions are wrong. The instructions state that to turn the alarm on or off, you simply have to press the alarm on/off button. This is wrong and can lead to confusion with the alarm. When the display is in clock mode (default setting), the first press of the alarm on/off button will show the alarm time, but the alarm will remain on/off in its current state (if ON remains on: if Off remains off). A second press of the alarm on/off button is required to change the alarm status. My wife was having trouble with it and it took me a few minutes to figure out what was going on. However, a very good atomic clock. highlighted.
