Doesn't Compare Well to $6.95 Clock August 17, 2008 I think that a number of people who rank this clock with 4 or 5 stars, are doing so because of the novelty of ceiling projection. To me, it's no longer a novelty, because I also own a $6.95 ceiling projection alarm clock. I expected this clock to perform at least as good as my "cheapie". It doesn't, here's why: 1 - Projection is dim, so I can't see the numbers in dusk or dawn conditions as I can with my cheapie (also refer to note 4). 2 - Projected numbers are small. 3 - Setup of features is entirely based on guessing where you are in a long sequence of steps so that the instructions in the manual align with what you're attempting to do. 4 - Any my biggest annoyance by far is that the entire setup and operation of this complicated clock is limited to just to 5 buttons, AND the manual forgets to tell you how to use 2 of them !!! One of the buttons is proection intensity, which I believe I have turned up all the way after playing with it and other buttons concurrently, but without instructions, I'm only guessing.
All time best August 13, 2008 This was my 1st experience of projection clock, before buying this product i was so scared, but after receiving the product i was so happy that i got such a wonderful piece because, its very light in weight and easy 2 program and even its very handy.... till now no problem at all, still its working as of first day. Actually i m using that adapter thing so, for me there is no issue with batteries. I would like 2 say just relax, and buy it.
so wanted to love it - but it doesn't last August 5, 2008 I bought this product on a lark thinking it would be a toy but I loved it - I liked being able to see the time on the ceiling - after 9 months it became inconsistent. When I emailed the company about it, I never received a reply. I tried changing all the batteries and it worked so so. After a year it died - out of warranty. I wanted to love it but I do not consider it dependable and I don't find the company responsive to customer inquries about product function. I would NOT recommend this brand.
ok, but there are much better ones... July 30, 2008 I regret buying this product. The projected numbers are tiny. Also, there is no way of rotating the angle at which they are projected. It is not worth the money.
happy sleeper July 22, 2008 If you like to know the time during the dark of night, this baby is for you. The red color goes easy on the eyes...not enough to shock you into wakefullness.
