Jumbo Deluxe Metal Bookend @SALE SHOPS

Sharp SPC800 Quartz Analog Twin Bell Alarm Clock (Silver) (Electronics) This appears to be a totally decent old-fashioned alarm clock. I've had it as an occasional-use backup for the last six or seven weeks.Some characteristics:* The single alarm is loud. Damn loud. Not to fire-alarm levels, but I wouldn't expect a sleeping partner to ignore it.* The alarm is set by a twist dial on the back. There are two dials; the other one sets the time. You have to be careful which you grab.* There's no snooze capacity here. The alarm is either activated or not, as set by a small switch on the back.* It ticks audibly. I sleep with earplugs so I don't care. If your sheep can't stand a fixed rhythm, you won't like this.* There's a small button on the back to activate a side light. The face is otherwise invisible in the dark.* It appears to hold time. The first few days I used it, it seemed to lose time, but it's been steady for the last month.* It really is a pretty clock, especially for the $8 WM wanted for it.The only question mark for me is the battery wear rate. This clock uses a single AA rather than a proper AC adapter. I've erred on the side of caution with a 1.5V Alkaline rather than the usual 1.2V Eneloop. I'll update when it gives out and add back a star if the clock turns out to be reliable in the long run.

Bought it at around $20.Positives---------- Large and high contrast display, easy to read from far across a room- Receiver is more sensitive (getting atomic clock signal immediately and during the day, when my old one was only correcting at night (Atomic clock RF signals travel better at night) about 10' from the nearest window). BTW, if you want to get the right clock immediately and during the day, go near a window with clear view to the outside and press clock sync button on the back for manual sync.- Easy to follow instruction, and the web address for the instruction is printed right next to the battery compartment (handy, since we need to refer to instruction when we change the batteries)- Simple timezone setting (one button to toggle four USA time zones) -- more on this on Neutral (below) also.- Daylight Savings Time reflects the correct calendar period -- some of the older products somehow does not understand the new daylight savings time period in USA, but this one does.- If you care about accuracy of the temperature display, mine was correct within 0.5 oF, compared to my lab instrument -- your clock's accuracy may vary :-).Negative----------- Instruction is not clear for the first initialization. Could only select the timezone AFTER the clock searched for the Atomic clock signal... (a few minutes), but the instruction does not say that. I thought I had a faulty unit at first. Better instruction needed.Neutral--------- MAKE SURE that you plan to use this clock in continental USA (ONLY the 4 time zones, Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific). But then again, I don't think you could receive the atomic clock signal if you are outside of these zones in North America.Helpful Hints--------------- Fold up the instruction booklet and tape it near the battery compartment on the back -- you'll be glad you did in about 18+ months.- I am a big fan of Atomic clocks -- one in almost every room in my house -- and found that most of the external temp sensor version needs battery changes every 6 month or so, while the non-external temp version, like this one, needs battery change every 12~24 months (all using alkaline batteries). So I use rechargeable for the clocks with external temp sensor (both the clock and the sensor) now, and alk
