Casio TQ140-7 Tq140 Travel Alarm Clock - White

The old clam shell style I had for 30 years finally gave out, and they just dont make them anymore. Found this one and after all the reviews, decided to give this a shot. I'M VERY PLEASED. Small ( clock fits in the palm of a womans hand) neat, compact with a good face and clear numbers. Clock does have coated numbers along with a coated hour and minute hands which illuminate if exposed to enough light before bedtime. I exposed the dial face to full sunlight all day, but the numerals faded to almost nothing after an hour of darkness. The hour and minute hand does stay "somewhat" dully illuminated throughout the night.If you're expecting it to illuminate like clocks made 40 years ago did, you'll be disappointed. But as a small travel alarm, it's perfectBe sure to note when setting the ALARM, that the lines are in---- 10 minute--- increments. Lift the "flush" mounted tab in the back to "engage" the alarm once you pick your time. Would have been nice if the alarm setting hand was in red so you dont mistake the second had for the alarm hand. Alarm is plenty loud. The clock .....to my ears, is completely silent. I hear no ticking at all.It Uses single AA battery. I would caution you not to store the battery in the clock when not in use....in event the battery leaks.Battery cover is a little difficult to remove..........BUT........... I grab both sides of the cover, pull back a little, then stick my fingernail into the small opening that appears and pull up and back. Pops off with no problem.For the price, you cant go wrong.

Outstanding clock overall as to the quality, accurate time and compact design .

I bought this after typing in non silent clock.Its silent !

This is a great compact little alarm clock. It takes up very little space in your travel bag, is accurate and easy to set both the alarm and time. The alarm will wake you without blasting you out of bed with a jarring loud alarm.

This clock is so small it’s useless. Then when I try to return it, the shipping is half the cost of the clock itself. Save yourself the time cost an effort avoid this completely.

Good design - simple design.They work.My favorite alarm clock.

This is my second Casio travel alarm clock. The earlier one works fine. They include a battery which is nice. I didn't give this 5 stars because the battery lid is a bit hard to get off, you have to fiddle with it -- I hope they improve this. I'll keep it.

I have bought three of these alarms and they all run well. The best factor is their loud alarm sound. In the morning, I have a hard time leaving my deep sleep. This alarm will jolt you with sound and get you out of bed to stop it, especially if you place it across the room. I have a way of integrating typical alarm sounds and telephone rings right into my dreams. Not with this little Casio. That alarm runs exactly on time and will wake the dead-to-the-world-sleepers in your family. It is what I take with me on trips, now that my old travel alarm went to clock heaven. I have two Casios in black and one in white. There is also a cute red one.
