After owning this for almost 10 years, today I nearly threw it away because I didn't know how to set the time. I'm glad I found this video 😊 I've finally set the clock and it's working. Thank you very much for this helpful video 💖
I have an upgraded version of this alarm clock where you can adjust the dimness by holding the up button and it’ll give you 4 dim options. Mine also has a reset button on the back. The alarm and other feedback with this alarm clock is sound recognition so you clap your hands when you want the alarm to turn off. In display 1, mine also shows the date in additions to the time and temperature.
Thank you so much! Every time we switch to DST or back, I have to replay this. I hope you never take this video down. Really appreciate your excellent explanation.
Brilliant video! Thank you so much for posting. I just bought mine with no instructions so I’ve fumbled my way through the functions. This helps a lot 👍
I’ve had this clock for 2 years, and I couldn’t use it anymore cuz I couldn’t turn the alarm off, so if I was away, I’d wake my whole house at 6am if I forgot to take out the batteries. Thank u so much, you’ve saved my life😂
good review. the on:sd that is shown when you push the button - means sound detection mode is on. now the LED will go off after sometime and come back on when there is some level of sound. when you push the button again and it shows --:sd, means sound detection is off and LED will remain on all the time. i was looking for this confirmation in a video before buying. Thanks !
Most helpful video of this clock that's on the internet! 5m onwards: switch between 'always on', or 'off until touch', and 12/24h mode. (I think.) At 8.:26 starts:Programming the year, month/day, and hour. At 10:24 starts: setting the alarm. Note to self: do NOT set the alarm, as the Set button is also the Snooze button and it's unclear how I can turn off the alarm permanently when I wake, or disable to alarm so it doesn't go off at at all.
Thanks for the simple setup instructions. You helped me stop the clock from scrolling from clock to temp to alarm back to clock. As you said, the translation is pretty poor. Thanks again!
I run mine off batteries and it ran out, no manual so this video really helped me work out how to put the display cycling on again as I like the thermometer cycling
Thanks man. That was helpful. Just wanna add a bit from my recent purchase. The company just updated the firmware. It automatically dims at night. and it also has 4 buttons at the back now. I didn't purchase from amazon though.
Thank you! Does anyone know if I can I turn off the button noises? So it doesn't beep every single time you want to change settings/alarms etc? When I was first setting it up there was no button noises but now there is. Thanks
omg! thank you very much this is very helpful for me coz i bought a wooden led wide clock but i dont know how to turn off the alarm coz the manual is chinese. thanks a lot. 👍
How do you stop the display from switching btwn time, temp and date to show time only? I noticed on yours you had the time permanently displayed. Mine keeps switching between and I find it quite inconvenient as I can't read the time at a glance. I have to wait for it to come around to its rotation.
I tried using rechargeable batteries in mine, and they do charge, but the problem seems to be that there is no charging circuitry and it causes the 1.3v nimh cells to charge to nearly 1.5v and get extremely hot. When using 1.5v alkalines it works fine when plugged in, since usb 5v is pretty close to the 4.8v of three fully charged alkaline cells, but then I would be worried about the cells discharging if the clock is unplugged and then trying to recharge when it gets plugged in again, and trying to charge alkalines is dangerous. I would recommend removing any batteries if you will be using it plugged in and only using batteries if you're bringing it on the go.
I have changed the 3 AAA bateries and could not restart the clock. Would you know how to help pls? I pushed the button SET, but nothung happened. :-( thank you for any help.
hi this video realy helped thank you, but i have mine set to switch back and forward from time and temp.. but mine is going from time to either i i or 1 1 then temp.. do you know why this is. thanks hun
Which brand is this one there are so many that sell the same thing and your amazon link doesn't go to s specific product but rather a list. My guess is that there are probably cheap copies and that's why some get a broken one or one that doesn't keep time. Thanks
Both, but I found the batteries got very hot when also plugged in with with USB, so I would recommend one or the other, batteries or plugged in, not both.
Hi, thank you for this video, it helped me so much. I just need something to dim the light because Level0 still looks too bright, mine is brown wood with red LED. Have you put something to dim it? I just thought to use anti glare film (black), but it's a bit pricey.
Hey if its pm you'll have a little dot on the left of the numbers. So if you want to set your alarm at am make sure the small dot isint there. Sorry for the late reply.
dw i have batteries too, try holding the set button, you may of put the batteries on incorrectly. and i dont think you need both power sources at the same time.

Yeah I have the same one, also on this one you need to double click the ‘down’ button to change the wake up setting
THANK YOU! I was desperate 😂
How to change the Dim settings???
I watch this video at least twice a year for the passed 3 years right after day light saving. It helps me every time.
Thank you so much! Every time we switch to DST or back, I have to replay this. I hope you never take this video down. Really appreciate your excellent explanation.
Who else is here to adjust for daylight saving time?
Me 😭
So ture
Yeah every year I come back 🤦♀️
Thanks a lot! I had this clock for a couple of years, but I lost the manual so I've known only how to set the time, this helped me a lot!
omg TT i lost the instruction manual for this clock so THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this video i now understand it in ways i never did before...

Nice review:) for everyone here, to adjust brightness, held the up button like 3 sec and choose from 3 levels.
* 4 levels
I can't adjust brightness
Thanks! I was wondering about that since it was pretty bright.
thank you! mine just arrived and i was soo lost even with the instructions lol!
good review. the on:sd that is shown when you push the button - means sound detection mode is on. now the LED will go off after sometime and come back on when there is some level of sound. when you push the button again and it shows --:sd, means sound detection is off and LED will remain on all the time. i was looking for this confirmation in a video before buying.

I dont know how to do it. What button i need to touch?
How do you get the dot in the corner
@@traceyanndelahaye5563 You have to set it to 12 hours instead of 24, so the dot indicates it's the afternoon.
@@NataliaZenteno thank you xxx
Thanks for that. That's what I was looking for bro appreciate that
I received mine a couple of hours ago. Thank you for this tutorial video.
Thank you. I had lost the guide so I didn't know how to operate the cube
Skip to 5:15 to learn how to work the settings.
8:25 for setting time, etc.
@@kevindequeiroz6122 Thx bros -- you and PJalst -- are the MVPs!

Thank you so much for this! I lost the instructions for my clock (not that they were very helpful). This video is exactly what I needed!
Thank you so much. Your a life saver especially during daylight savings time
Thank you again! I pull up your video every 6 months.
I have a version of this clock and realized that the issue with my alarms was that they were never turned on
Your comment help me to notice the same thing 😂😂 Thank you!
Thanks, that was helpful! btw it's actually "sound" activated if you have the "Sd" on, but it's not that sensitive
Thanks for the simple setup instructions. You helped me stop the clock from scrolling from clock to temp to alarm back to clock. As you said, the translation is pretty poor. Thanks again!
There is a dimming function. Hold the up button for 3 seconds and you'll get 3 levels of brightness adjustment
I can't. It's changed DP-1 2 3. Not brightness 😓
I run mine off batteries and it ran out, no manual so this video really helped me work out how to put the display cycling on again as I like the thermometer cycling
Thanks!! Very helpfull!! Was clueless about batt save mode. BTW: it's sound activated.
Thanks man. That was helpful. Just wanna add a bit from my recent purchase. The company just updated the firmware. It automatically dims at night. and it also has 4 buttons at the back now. I didn't purchase from amazon though.
Thanks for the info!
Just get on with it! How do I set it up?
Thank you so much. I threw away the manual guides so I have no idea how to set the display to always on. This helps a lot.
Thank you! Does anyone know if I can I turn off the button noises? So it doesn't beep every single time you want to change settings/alarms etc? When I was first setting it up there was no button noises but now there is. Thanks
Did you ever figure it out? I just got one today and am wondering the same thing.
thank it actually helped even though i have a different moddle
but how do you set an alarm to wake up to?
Spared me so much time, thank you
Thank you. That was very helpful. I wish it wouldn't blink the :
Thanks for this ! 👍 I have the brown one. Just move house & lost the manual. Forgot how to make the display stay on 😅
Thank you!! My clock was on the mode to tap it to light up and I wanted it to stay on...And I couldn’t figure it out! 😂
i have two dots in front of the time. what does that mean and how do i get rid of the second dot
\
I have the same problem,i think the second dot means the alarm is on,did you figure out how to turn it off,because i cant seem too.
Thanks for these instructions as the printed ones were fairly useless. I had managed to set some of the functions but have no idea how I did it!!
You're welcome!
idk if you know this but after 9:00 PM it gets dimmer, mines is ginkgo branded though, it should be vibration activated and or sound activated
Good video, but for info, programming the clock only starts at 8 min 30s
Is it possible to turn off the sound?
is there a way?
Oh my god, thank you for this video. The clock is awesome, but there was no way I was going to be able to use it properly without this video 🤘👍👍
😊😊
😊😊😊😊😊
Will the batteries last long? I heard it gets easily drained out
is there a way to keep the clock on at all times? i have batteries in mine and you have to tap the top to see the time
omg! thank you very much this is very helpful for me coz i bought a wooden led wide clock but i dont know how to turn off the alarm coz the manual is chinese. thanks a lot. 👍
Really helpful video. The instructions that come with the clock are pretty awful, so thank you again!!!!

I continue to have a number flashing to the left of the am/pm indicator light. Wondering how to turn that off.
I have a doubt, can we use the usual non rechargeable AAA batteries and usb power simultaneously? Or do we have to use rechargeable AAA batteries?

Does the led light really go out? Do you have to click something at the back so it will light up? Or does it have a setting for it?
hi this video realy helped thank you, but i have mine set to switch back and forward from time and temp.. but mine is going from time to either i i or 1 1 then temp.. do you know why this is. thanks hun
Sounds like it might be defective or something... does it work normally to display just the clock?
yes i can just display the clock, i only got it a couple of weeks ago lol, and first time using it, so i will see if i set the alarm right ..
the 1 1 is the month and day. I think.
TO SET THE TIME: hold DOWN for three seconds, then the set button to scroll though year, date, and time.
I just bought this kind of clock. But why is it that if I put it down, the display disappears? How can i make the time stays on.?
Thank you so much! You were really helpful!
I've used your video so many times, I can never remember how to set this time on this clock.
Glad I could help :)
So far, I use a good Calculator Alarm Clock. Is it possible to order the same from China and after what period approximately will be delivered?
Took me a minute to figure it out but got it now. Thanks!
How do you keep it displayed all the time..keeps going off. Have to touch the top, only displays a few mins. Then off again,?
Why is it that after the alarm sounds and I let it run the time of the alarm stays on and doesn't go back to current time?
How to adjust this clock to stay always on,on battery mode
Fully explained... Its use full to me
Which brand is this one there are so many that sell the same thing and your amazon link doesn't go to s specific product but rather a list. My guess is that there are probably cheap copies and that's why some get a broken one or one that doesn't keep time. Thanks
U sir are freaking awesome! Thank you for this
Can you recharge it by using the USB or can you just use the batteries ?
Both, but I found the batteries got very hot when also plugged in with with USB, so I would recommend one or the other, batteries or plugged in, not both.
Hi, thank you for this video, it helped me so much. I just need something to dim the light because Level0 still looks too bright, mine is brown wood with red LED. Have you put something to dim it? I just thought to use anti glare film (black), but it's a bit pricey.

Very informative. Now I have programmed mine, thanks
After inserting battery it is NOT getting ON. pressing reset Button shows counting 0 to 9 in all 4 display. Did I got the faulty product?
thank you for this video, now i can set my clock.

Yup by holding the “up” button, you can cycle through 4 different options. At least that’s how it is on mine which is an upgraded version of his
How do i turn off the Loud button sounds? (Plugged in, not battery)
How do I turn the alarm off and how can I dim the light ? how can these cool looking clocks be so difficult and so bright !
I’m still kinda confused on the alarm times, I want it to wake me up at 6:00am , mine is on 12am mode (which is what I want ) what do I do?
Hey if its pm you'll have a little dot on the left of the numbers. So if you want to set your alarm at am make sure the small dot isint there. Sorry for the late reply.
My clock turns off every minute then turns on on another minute. Off for 59 seconds then will turn on on the 60th second. How can i make it steady?
Awesome review and set up directions! Thanks!😊
Thanks for your help
really great review , helped me out a lot thank you
Is there a snooze feature? (im guessing there isn't) still looks like a nice clock think I'm going to order a brown on eBay for $6.99 free shipping.
By the way can I put the batteries and at the same time plug the usb into an outlet. Thanks
Is there a way to stop the : from blinking?
Awesome review. Thank you
The clocks just went back, so I’m back here again learning how to change the time! 😂
Well done! Very informative.

Thank you
Thank you for this helpful video

You’ve saved the day Thanks
Hey, how loud is it for an alarm? Like, will it wake me up in the morning or not? Thanks.

How do you turn the alarm off??? I press every button and five minutes later it goes again
How do I remove the alarm feature? I want to de-activate it’s for good!
How can we reduce the brightness?
Hold the up button and you’ll be able to cycle through
Does it have the option to not be a 24 clock like military time
i only want the time to display... how i switch off the date & temp ?
Why do i have a dot inbetween of my first 2 hour numbers? (not the pm dot)
