1. Alarm - Alarm clocks
offer us a choice of what to wake up to, from soothing sounds of
nature, to mind-bending tones that ensure early morning awareness.
2. Snooze - Most alarm clocks come with a snooze button so you can wake up more slowly, more cheerfully. Put the baseball
bat back in the closet.
3. Atomic - This feature makes sure you never have to worry if your clock has the accurate time. An alarm clock with an atomic feature, receives a radio signal from Colorado that constantly synchronizes the correct time.
4. Digital - With easy-read numbers that are big, bright, and backlit, digital alarm clocks are the hands-down favorite of the
bleary-eyed.
5. Illuminated - Standard dial face clocks utilize glow in the dark
or backlit methods. Digital clocks rely on either LED or backlight
illumination. Regardless of illumination method, every alarm clock should have illumination.
6. Weather - With temperature and hygrometer dials,
weather station alarm clocks give you minute-by-minute updates on
whether you should just stay in bed.
7. Day Clock - If you own an alarm clock, then you rely on some form of scheduling, so a day clock feature is an ideal way to get a quick bead on what's headed your way in the coming day.
8. Projection - A projection feature
allows the user to display information on a wall or ceiling. This can
be helpful when the face of the alarm clock is either too small or not
well lit for checking time in the dark.
9. Music features - For those that like to be wakened by the chatter
of morning radio or the tunes from their favorite CDs, music features
add versatility to any alarm clock.
