So I decided to buy a bell times or retro alarm clock, the first model that I bought has clicked relatively loud, which made it difficult to fall asleep again, and this was tolerable after a familiarization phase. However, this became increasingly imprecise and Schlegel mechanism above twisted, why only a hum is perceiving now, which is also no adequate sound to wake up more.
Therefore, I had to buy a new device and this should finally be. A decisive point was the dark color I mistakenly einschätzte than black. However, this was my own fault, because dark brown was stated in the description. However, Brown also acts more noble than those often chrome-colored casing. The dial is really very precise read and not quite white, but slightly dimmed. This is reminiscent of old paper and in symbiosis with the numeric design is really nice finishing touch.
The housing including bells, although less than in many other and even my old unit, but acts by the alarm ore more compact than that this is a penalty.
Technically, the alarm snooze function and the light available both triggered by pressure on the display, which easily sinks then. This is always enabled actually the snooze briefly before then properly turn off the alarm via switch on the back. The advantage of this is, if you try the whole thing inside of sleeping, one begins not only to the switch to fold. Because the rudimentary logic working brain of the sleeper is content with the mere short-term suppression of noise, so that even in the event of another Dahinsackens, a renewed Weckversuch is ensured without having to run the risk of not being awakened again.
Is also briefly mentioned that the power supply is sufficient for a battery.
Conclusion: A great alarm clock for a small price
