Strengths:
Nice looking
Weaknesses:
- Never received a strong enough signal to self adjust in high rise downtown Edmonton. The atomic part may just be a hit and miss here.
- Flashlight is a nice to have feature but the LED is very dim by any current standards, less bright than a cell phone screen...
Additional Comments:
Nice looking clock to buy when on sale...

Strengths:
- Small but solid feeling clock (4.75" x 1.25" x 1.125")
- Legible display approx. 3/4"H x 1/5"W)
- Amber backlight via a button on top near the display which illuminates for 5 seconds
- Alarm is a series of 3 beeps that are quite loud
- Snooze button works 4 times at 5' intervals.....after that you are late
- Emergency light on the display end which could be handy
- Clock comes with 2 batteries included
- In Calgary I was able to receive the WWVB signal to set the time at mid
Weaknesses:
- Battery life will be dependent on backlight and flashlight usage
- Battery cover is a bit hard to open but very secure when closed
- The DST/Radio button, Clock, Wave and Reset buttons all reside under the cover although in all fairness once they are set, they should seldom be needed until the next battery change. This clock is supposed to start searching for a time signal as soon as the batteries are installed so manual setting shouldn't even be necessary.
Additional Comments:
All in all this is a worthwhile buy, especially at the current sale price.
