    Clock for bedroom?

    What are your solutions for a bedroom clock?

    The bedroom in our Imagine 2670MK is dark as the far side of the moon. Great for sleeping, but in the 8-10 times a night that I wake up I like to know what time it is.

    The way the queen bed fits the 2670MK, the “shelf” where I keep my phone on is below elbow level and around a corner...not convenient.

    What have you come up with? I don’t want something so bright that it keeps me awake. Just something I can peep at through barely open eyes and know what time it is.

    Maybe sometime in the future when I’m retired it won’t matter, but for the near future I “need” to know.

    Thanks!

    I keep my watch on the bedside table, and use the back light in the middle of the night. Maybe you could keep one under your pillow so you can reach it easily?

    I got the one at the following link, or one VERY much like it, at Costco years ago for about $25. The price is sure different but everything else looks the same.

    My favorite feature is a possible solution to your problem of not being able to see the clock: this one projects the time onto the ceiling in large red numbers. The clock also keeps time accurately (sets itself from national time radio signals) and gives a snapshot of the weather outside.

    If this device isn't for you, there are many other projection alarm clocks available.

    I found a little battery operated clock at Walmart for $4.88!! It is not backlit because I don’t like random lights while I’m trying to sleep. This one is totally blacked out at night but there is a little button on the top, push it and it illuminates the letters , softly. Best $5 I’ve ever spent for what I needed to accomplish!
