As a general rule of thumb, I don’t set it for the regular 15 minute increments, because it probably won’t go off. Today, I set it for 10:37 and it went off at 10:46! 😠
How do you know it wasn’t going off if you weren’t awake? I’ve had situations before where mine went off but my brain incorporated it into the dream I was having for a little while before waking me up.
It’s a light up one, it lights up slowly over around five minutes. I think I woke up at 6:36, so I would have seen it anyways.
Maybe it has a setting to gradually start the noise as well? It wouldn’t make a lot of sense for it to introduce the light gradually while also blasting you with the sound.
Yes, but there’s an indicator light that comes on when the alarm starts, and as I said it came on nine minutes late.
Ah, I see. Well I couldn’t tell you then. It’s probably specific to the model of clock.
