No more fumbling for the clock in a dark hotel room to see what time it is. This compact travel alarm clock features a unique Nightfinder function that, when activated, illuminates the blue HiGlo backlight every few seconds during the night. When the function is turned off to save battery wear, such as when the clock is used at home, a simple touch against the screen will illuminate it for three seconds. The current time and alarm time are displayed simultaneously in easy-to-read digital numbers. When it's time to get up, the crescendo alarm starts beeping at a gentle level, then builds in intensity; sleepyheads can push gently on the screen to activate the 5-minute snooze function. The alarm's on/off button and the time- and alarm-set button are handily located on the front. The clock snaps shut into a compact unit measuring only 3-1/4 by 2-1/2 by 5/8 inches. At about half the size of Oregon Scientific's widescreen version, this travel alarm clock requires only one AAA battery (included) for operation. Accurate to within 0.5 seconds per day, the clock is backed by a 90-day warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

What alarm?!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Oregon Scientific AS316NE-S Nightfinder Travel Alarm Clock, Silver (Kitchen)
When I received this product in the mail, I was excited to have an easy to use travel alarm clock. However, when I tested the alarm, it wasn't any noisier than a pin dropping! Not too happy. I am returning the clock and hoping it was just a defect!

Can't recommend: could be so much better,
By Ted M. Young "Java-OO Software Engineer" (Foster City, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Oregon Scientific AS316NE-S Nightfinder Travel Alarm Clock, Silver (Kitchen)
The hinged cover has a lot of trouble staying open, it seems to be weighted wrong such that it tips over very easily (especially when snoozing the alarm!). This is probably the worst feature.I find the nightfinder feature useless. Perhaps other find it useful, but there's usually enough ambient light to at least find the alarm clock, should I need to know what time it is at 4am (a quick push back on the clock turns on the backlighting). It could be louder -- it usually wakes me up, but not reliably. It doesn't get louder at the end of its alarm sequence, just the beeps get more continuous. I also find it very easy to leave the clock in either the Alarm Set or Time Set (the toggle switch doesn't give you a good sense when it's in the middle), which means the alarm will never go off. Good things: it's light. Conservative with battery (assuming you don't accidentally turn on the nightfinder). Time is very visible and the backlighting is pleasant.
