I like my new clock

I know not everyone has a digital clock, or an alarm clock these days. We do. We like it in the bedroom so we can see what crazy hours we get up to visit the bathroom, or see if it is time to get out of bed.
I sometimes had trouble reading the one we had. I did not realize Bob did too until he said something. I went to Amazon that day and found a great new clock. It has really big numbers, like maybe four times as big as our old clock.
Not only that, you can run it on batteries. No more resetting if we have a small power blip, or making sure the cord reaches the outlet. I was puzzled at first, because it also came with a USB cord and can be run that way.
This would be great for travel as well.
Happy buyer here.

I have a digital clock in my bedroom and out here I use the Alexa Eco show as a clock. It's digital of course.

That's good that you found one that's more functional and convenient for your needs.
We don't have clocks in the house anymore. We are too dependent on our phones. It's our alarm clock, it's our planner, it's our reminder, etc. But I still do wear a wrist watch everyday.

I don’t like the digital clocks because those lights are too bright for my taste. But I’ve found a way around that. I wear my watch to bed for sleep monitoring, so I can look at it when I wake up in the middle of the night and see what time it is. You got a great clock!!

I have a clock on my headboard that has battery backup in case the power goes out. It also changes it's own time if it gets even a minute behind. The numbers on it glow in the dark.

My bedside clock has given up the ghost. Now, I have to hoick myself up on one elbow to look over Vince at his. And often I need my glasses on as well to read it. One of our house-sits had a lovely, big clock. I might buy one like it.
