Power outage - no need to reset!
Update: Don't forget to check your batteries occasionally. You won't notice the batteries losing power or corroding until the electricity goes off and the time stops. The batteries take over during the outage, keeping the time going and also preserving the alarm setting. (I removed a corroded battery in time, and the clock worked with new batteries.) I'm still very happy with this clock! When the electricity went off for 90 minutes, the digital numbers disappeared. When the power returned, the clock was at the correct time. The alarm set time hadn’t changed from the previous setting. Setting the Time and Alarm are easy: 1-HOLD DOWN the Set Time (or Set Alarm) button for a second or two, until the Hour number starts flashing. 2- LET GO of the Set Time (or Set Alarm) button. The Hour number should still be flashing. 3- PRESS THE + or - BUTTON EACH TIME you want to move the Hour number. Ex: If you want to change the number from 1 to 5, press the + button 4 times (it will change to 2,3,4,5). Edit: You can hold the button down to quickly advance the numbers. 4- PRESS THE SET Time (or Set Alarm) button once, to keep the new setting. 5- Next, the MINUTE NUMBERS WILL START FLASHING. Use the + or - buttons to change the minutes. 6- PRESS SET Time (or Set Alarm) button to keep those minute numbers. The new set time numbers will be displayed, without the flashing. 24 hour is military time (1200, 1300, 1400, etc.) Too much math for this civilian. 12 hour is regular clock time. If it’s afternoon or night, change the time so PM shows. A clearance of 3.75 inches is needed if using a WALL ELECTRICAL OUTLET behind furniture. The converting brick is 2 inches long, plus the USB connection is 1-3/4 inches long. The cord itself is 58 inches long. The 2 prongs on the plug are the same size, so it will fit older outlets as well as grounded ones. This clock’s face is clutter free - no temperature, humidity, date, day, radio, etc. The numbers are 1-5/8" H x 7/8" W. I bought a second one for the kitchen, where it also serves as a night light.
