Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.
Streamline design and large bold green number display on this large display electric clock with smart dimmer. The 3" jumbo illuminated LED digits make it simple to read the time even from a distance, making it ideal for people with impaired vision. With the patented smart brightness dimmer design, you can adjust the display brightness from 0-100 with a simple turn of the wheel. There's no need to be concerned about the brightness, which can be either too bright and interfere with sleep or too dim and make it difficult to read.
Adjustable Alarm Sound: A single alarm setting with a 9-minute snooze period is available. As a personal preference, the "beep" alarm sound can be set anywhere between 30-90 DP. It is unnecessary to be concerned about the alarm sound, which may be either too loud and startle you, or too soft and wake you up from a deep sleep. On weekends, the alarm can be turned off with a single ON/OFF button.
USB Charging Port: Use the convenient USB port to charge your smartphone, iPad, or other smart device without having to plug it into the wall. The words "handy," "convenient," and "organized" come to mind.
Easy to Use Clock: With its intuitive setting button, setting the time or alarm is a breeze. Children, seniors, and the elderly will find it simple to use.
Outlet Powered with Battery Backup: Use the included DC adapter to power the clock. In the event of a power outage, 2* AAA batteries (not included) are required to store the time and alarm settings. The screen will go blank and the alarm will not sound if you only use the backup battery.

Questions & Answers

Is there a hole in the back for hanging it on the wall?

It does not, in fact. Furthermore, due to the location (in the back) of the USB port that powers the device, it would be difficult to mount this clock flush on a wall.

On the plug, I'd like more information. Is it equipped with a standard two-prong plug that does not require the use of a transformer?

There are two USB ports on this device. There isn't a transformer cube to be found. It also comes with two (2) On the back of the clock are USB ports and plugs. It comes with a separate USB adapter if you plan on plugging it into a wall outlet. This is the most recent iteration of the X-Men clock. Clock with a large display.

Is there a black case with green digits available for this product?

It appears to be available in a variety of colors on the Amazon listing I'm looking at.

What is the procedure for setting the alarm on the Dreamsky DS218?

An "alarm set" and an "alarm ON OFF" switch are located on the back of the device. br>Although we don't use alarms, we assume that the alarm buttons would be a good place to start.

This place reminds me of Blade Runner
5/5

Do you require a clock that can be read from 50 yards away by a legally blind drunk? Do you require a clock that serves as a dystopian sci-fi prop, night light, and godzilla-like creature? what is the size of the clock? I'm glad I went with the soothing teal color because the red would make a room look like a slaughterhouse in hell. On a 3 a. m. bathroom trip, this isn't exactly what I want to see. This is in my living room, under the TV, and it always gets people's attention.

The NASA has given their blessing
5/5

I ordered a clock for my husband, who is currently suffering from vision problems, and I decided to "go big or go home. " The numbers are large (which should come as no surprise given that all dimensions are listed on the site), but they are still. wow. Hubby put everything into perspective by comparing it to the NASA countdown clock. As a result, it went from being perfect to being perfectly COOL. I was expecting it to light up the entire room (it's on hubby's side), but it doesn't. It's there and you're completely unaware of it. In our house, it's a resounding success. send a message to a satisfied customer.

It has a lot of visibility and is simple to work with
5/5

My wife pointed out that my RCA alarm clock (circa 2005) wasn't working properly. I determined that it was about 30 seconds behind schedule, and while this is easily rectifiable, I also took advantage of the opportunity to upgrade to a more visible alarm clock. br>br>The digits on this clock are large and easy to read; they're bright but can be dimmed manually. br>br>I had an idea, so I traced out the individual LEDs, removed the existing controller, and connected each segment of the LEDs with magnet wire to one of four MCP23017s, allowing my raspberry pi to address each LED individually. I had a working clock after a little programming, but it wasn't quite good enough. br>br>I wanted the clock to be accurate, so I added a real time clock (since the Raspberry Pi Zero W doesn't have one) so that the clock always knows what time it is, even if there is no wifi. When it's connected to the internet, it uses NTP to set its time, which it gets from a local GPS Stratum 1 NTP server I built. br>br>The clock worked, but it was too bright, so I added a light sensor (the white part in the back case that was 3D printed to fit one of the button holes). This allowed me to use the Raspberry Pi's PWM output to control brightness based on current lighting conditions. It dims the clock to a visible (but not bright enough to light up the room) setting when it's dark. It switches to full brightness when it's light. Anything else is a setting that is in the middle. Because the MCP, RTC, and light sensor are all I2C devices, the entire system connects to the Raspberry Pi with only 5 wires, making it simple to work on the Pi (even though it's connected via WiFi, so I can just SSH to it). br>br>I'm sorry, but I can't comment on the alarm clock feature. I've clearly altered the clock, and I didn't include an alarm clock feature in my project because we only use our phones as alarm clocks.

Exceptional Product!! This is an excellent alarm clock that outperforms all zombie alarm clocks
5/5

Engineered garbage is widely available at big box stores in your area. How so? A *real* 0-percentage point 100% infinite brightness adjustment, legibility (a smooth, rounded style font is a great option), a clean and uncluttered design, no gimmicks or useless features Its creator had to have used alarm clocks in a real bedroom before designing it. br>br>In terms of price, well, yes - It is a little more expensive than other options, but there is no comparison in terms of value. br>br>I'd like to see a time-synchronized version of this - Radio, GPS, or the Internet are all viable options. Despite this, after nearly two years of ownership, I can confidently recommend it.

THIS IS AN AMAZING CLOCK
5/5

This clock features large digits, adjustable brightness, a 12- or 24-hour time format, and two USB 2. 0 ports. 0 ports. One port is for connecting the power supply, while the other can be used to charge your phone. It also has a backup battery that saves the correct time when the power goes out, ensuring that the indicated time is correct when the power comes back on. The alarm can also be set to a different volume. This clock comes highly recommended by me.

It can be dimmed, in fact! I've spent a lot of time looking for a clock that can be dimmed
5/5

I don't need it as an alarm clock; I just want to know what time it is in the dark without having to turn on the lights in the entire room. This is exactly what I was looking for in a clock. The numbers are large enough that I can read them without glasses, and the clock's lights can be dimmed until they are completely turned off if desired. It's very simple to use. This clock is extremely basic. The only thing I would change is that it should be a regular electrical outlet rather than a USB port. Apart from that, everything is fine; thank you!.

This clock is absolutely fantastic! This clock went above and beyond my expectations! I needed a clock that I could see from my bed in the "middle of the night" because I have vision problems
5/5

Well! The numerals on this are colossal in size! In a dimly lit room, the light blue color is soothing rather than harsh or jarring. You can also DIM the light's intensity to meet your requirements. Even though I am technically challenged, I was able to take this out of the box and use it IMMEDIATELY (without having to read the manual) - Despite the fact that I'm only using the clock! It is EASY, PRACTICAL, and CHEAP. I'm a huge fan of technology. NO BATTERIES ARE REQUIRED TO RUN THE CLOCK, as it plugs into a standard outlet. It's simply a wonderful, old-fashioned piece of work. a timekeeper in the old fashioned sense! I'm so glad I got it! It was well worth the money!.

Clock is unsatisfactory (though I will keep it)
3/5

The clock is unsatisfactory (though I intend to keep it). br>1) To remove the cover on the battery compartment, you'll need a Phillips screw driver (one is provided, but will I remember where I put it? 2) The USB connectors aren't labeled (power is on the left, charging is on the right). 3) Keep the directions handy because the buttons for changing the time aren't well labeled.
