Russell Beattie Notebook - Best Clock I've Ever Owned: “This device is a perfect example of doing only one thing, and doing it well. You buy this clock, and you plug it in. You then choose one of the four American timezones (sorry everyone else, it's a U.S.-only clock). Then you click the alarm button and go up or down to your time and you're done. How user friendly is that?
The best part? It changes the hour on Daylight Savings Time by itself. We forgot this year, yet didn't have to”
You're lucky, Russ, you didn't buy an Oregon Scientific clock as I did. What's wrong with it is that 1) it eats batteries for lunch; a couple of AAA batteries will last no more than a month and 2) there's no buffer battery, so when you swap batteries, which happens every month, all settings, including alarm times are reset. Plus, it wasn't even cheap!
I think I will avoid Oregon Scientific products in the future.
